About me

I offer one to one and group sessions. In private practice.

I have many years of life experience, working in the mental health system, schools and hostels.

I am a co counsellor of 20 years

Sometimes the world can feel a harsh and lonely place, none of us is really alone, although it can feel that way. We might begin to feel depressed, hopeless and anxious. We can not get the lives we want on our own.

You can reach out and get the help you need.

We will work together to develop a therapeutic alliance, a safe enough space for you to feel listened to, and heard.

We will begin where we are. We can explore your feelings and experiences through talking and through expressing your feelings through art materials, sometimes just getting the stuff from our heads onto paper can be a big relief.

Being with a committed other, every week is a rare and precious gift to yourself.
This time will be your time.

I am an Integrative practitioner which means I bring everything I know, theoretically, intuitively and emotionally.
I work in the moment, going back for the young you when older experiences and memories suggest themselves. Discharge of emotions is very welcome.

I am totally committed to giving you and your experiences a full hearing, and therefore change will occur.

I work from a Carl Rogers perspective, I have in mind the Gestalt Cycle, and also work with a Cognitive Analytic frame, which includes naming and addressing learnt patterns from the past.

I am registered with HCPC.

I am pleased to say I am now also working from art cabin in Queens wood. Grown ups and young people welcome.
I love my work.
