About me
I provide a kind and welcoming space, where you can feel safe to share what is going on for you. Please know I will always listen, and do my best to understand you.
Creating a safe space for you to share your thoughts, and to feel heard without judgement, is paramount for me. Psychotherapy and counselling sessions with me, will involve working through things at a pace you feel comfortable with.
How I work: Therapy for Mind & Body...
Offering Psychotherapy and Counselling with a mind-body approach. Mind-body approaches recognise the intricate relationship between thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, and behaviours, viewing them as interconnected components of overall well-being.
The aim is to address issues holistically, considering both psychological and physiological factors contributing to an individual's distress or imbalance.
Here are some key principles and techniques often employed in mind-body counselling approaches:
Holistic Perspective: Viewing individuals as whole beings, acknowledging the interplay between mind, body, and spirit. Understanding that mental and emotional states can impact physical health and vice versa.
Mindfulness: Mindfulness practices are central to many mind-body counselling approaches. This involves cultivating present-moment awareness without judgment. Techniques such as meditation, deep breathing, and body scans can help you to become more attuned to your thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations.
Cognitive-Behavioural Techniques: Mind-body counsellors may incorporate cognitive-behavioural techniques to address maladaptive thought patterns and behaviours. By identifying and challenging unhelpful thoughts, you can learn to change your cognitive processes, which can lead to improvements in emotional well-being and physical health.
Stress Reduction: Stress management techniques play a significant role in mind-body counselling. Chronic stress has been linked to numerous physical and mental health problems, so exploring how to effectively manage stress through relaxation exercises and lifestyle changes can be very beneficial.
I offer an integrative approach and will tailor our sessions to suit your needs. I may also share some suggestions and techniques along the way, to help support you in day to day life. Being an integrative therapist means I use a combination of therapeutic approaches; including psychotherapy, counselling, mindfulness, visualisation and relaxation techniques, and CBT.
I aim to support you in creating better balance within your life, and to feel more able and prepared to make the changes you are seeking.
Experience and areas of interest:
I offer support in many areas. These include, but are not limited to: fertility support, pregnancy loss, pregnancy, anxiety disorders, stress, depression, self-confidence and self-esteem, past trauma, domestic abuse, relationship issues, loss and grief, work related issues.
Special interests:
I have a specialist interest in infertility and pregnancy loss. As well as being a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, I am a Certified Hypnotic Fertility Practitioner. I am a member of the British Infertility Counselling Association (BICA) and I have completed specialist training in this area.
I can support you by:
*Providing a kind and non-judgemental space for you to explore thoughts and feelings.
*Helping you to explore ways to reduce anxiety and stress and the impact this has on the delicate hormone balance.
*Guided visualisations to support mind-body connection.
*Helping you to create a healthy mindset throughout the rollercoaster ride of infertility.
*Assisting you to regain control over your life and recognising there is still life outside of infertility.
I would be honoured to walk with you on your journey.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society
This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations.
In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
