About me
I am a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor specialising in eating disorders and clinical hypnotherapy, offering a thoughtful, compassionate space for those seeking deeper understanding and meaningful change.
I work from a pluralistic, integrative approach, which means therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Instead, I tailor our work to you as an individual, drawing on a range of therapeutic models to best support your needs, pace, and goals. My core orientation is psychodynamic, with a strong belief in exploring the unconscious patterns and early experiences that shape how you relate to yourself and others today.
Alongside this depth-oriented foundation, I integrate elements of humanistic, Jungian, and cognitive behavioural therapies. I also draw from somatic experiencing, Gestalt therapy, transactional analysis, and polyvagal-informed approaches, allowing us to work not only with thoughts and emotions, but also with the body and nervous system.
A central focus of my work is relationships and attachment. Many of the difficulties we experience—whether in romantic relationships, family dynamics, or our relationship with food and our bodies—are rooted in early attachment patterns. You may find yourself repeating cycles of emotional unavailability, anxiety in relationships, or feeling disconnected from your own needs. Together, we gently explore these patterns, helping you understand their origins and how they continue to show up in your life.
My work is particularly attuned to those navigating eating disorders, emotional regulation challenges, and complex relational dynamics. I offer a space where all parts of your experience can be explored safely, at your own pace, and without judgement.
At the heart of my approach is the therapeutic relationship itself - creating a space where you feel seen, supported, and able to connect more fully with your inner world. From here, we can begin to untangle patterns, build awareness, and move towards a more grounded, secure, and authentic way of being.
You are welcome to get in touch if this way of working resonates with you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and Clinical Hypnotherapist, registered with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). Alongside my core psychotherapy training, I have completed a Post-Qualifying Advanced Diploma in Eating Disorders, specialist training in attachment, trauma-informed practice, and clinical hypnotherapy. I have also undertaken additional training in supporting women through perimenopause and menopause, recognising the significant impact hormonal changes can have on emotional wellbeing, identity, and mental health. As a qualified 550-hour Yoga Teacher, I appreciate the importance of the mind-body connection and, where appropriate, may integrate breathwork and body-based awareness techniques to help clients develop emotional regulation, reduce stress, and reconnect with themselves. I am committed to ongoing professional development and regular clinical supervision to ensure my practice remains ethical, evidence-informed, and tailored to the individual needs of every client.

Further information
I offer a compassionate, integrative approach to psychotherapy, recognising that every person's experience is unique. My work is grounded in a relational and trauma-informed framework, drawing on psychodynamic theory, attachment theory, Jungian psychology, and evidence- based approaches to support meaningful and lasting change. I believe that symptoms often carry important messages rather than simply problems to be eliminated, and I work collaboratively with clients to understand the deeper patterns that may be influencing their emotional wellbeing. My aim is to create a safe, non-judgemental space where clients feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported as they develop greater self-awareness, resilience, and a more authentic relationship with themselves.
