About me

Looking to better understand yourself, change difficult thoughts, feelings, relationships or behaviour? Perhaps you’re going through major life transitions? I am a fully qualified psychotherapist and counsellor I seek to create a safe space for clients to feel seen, heard and understood. I work with people to help them be more connected to themselves and others; to live life with greater awareness, vitality and joy. 

Life can feel overwhelming and we can get into patterns that are unhelpful and destructive.

I work with clients of all sexualities and identities. Whatever brings you to therapy I seek to provide a safe, confidential space for you to:

- explore and process difficult feelings and thoughts

- share things you may not have spoken to anyone about

- gain new insight into the challenges you face

- develop self-care and self-compassion

- find better ways to communicate and relate to others

- develop ways to change thoughts, feelings and behaviours you find problematic

- find your own unique way of living more fully

- heal from trauma

This work can be over a relatively short time or longer term.

I have experience of working with clients around relationship difficulties, including sexual, romantic relationships, relationships with parents, siblings and friends. Clients who have been impacted by addiction to alcohol, drugs or gambling themselves or their family members have come to me for therapeutic support. I am also skilled at working with clients struggling with anxiety, childhood trauma, life changing health conditions, sexuality, depression, grief and low self-esteem.

I offer individual and couples psychotherapy and counselling online, by phone and in person in Hove and in Henfield. 

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a fully qualified psychotherapist and counsellor. I have training in a variety of psychotherapeutic approaches, including a Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling (Transactional Analysis), a Foundation in Analytical Psychology, training in Psychosynthesis and a Certificate in Counselling. 

I draw on this training and my experience to tailor the way I work with each individual. 

I am experienced working in private practice and a number of charities.
