About me
My approach within psychotherapy is to work through integration. Integrative psychotherapy includes exploring together, at your pace, how your environment from the past has shaped your present way of being. Within Integration we explore new ways of being in the present, that will allow you to be yourself, grow and live confidently. Integrative psychotherapy is also an integration of feeling, thought and behaviour.
Integrative psychotherapy allows for a range of relational and developmental modalities/theories. Which theories and modalities are integrated depends on an individual’s experiences. The outcome of integration is to feel whole, content and find new ways of being that feels a fit for you. Integrative Psychotherapy often brings new ways of being, that improves mental, emotional and often physical well-being.

Further information
In my Couple therapy practice I aim to support couples to improve their emotional and relational connectedness, whilst working with the distressed relationship. I work with the individual person and the co created relationship between you. I take into account physical, emotional, social and spiritual wellbeing aspects of being.
I have a particular interest in working with individuals and couples who have suffered trauma and highly stressful situations through their profession or whilst serving in the Armed Forces.
I have completed working online competencies with the UKCP and use Zoom as my online platform.
