About me
I have worked in NHS Child Mental Health Services for 20 years as well as working with adults in private practice. My therapeutic experiences have included supporting people with a variety of mental health difficulties. I can help with:
- couple and family relationship difficulties
- difficulties with parenting
- experiences of trauma, bereavement and loss
- attachment difficulties
- depression
- self-harm
- emotional dysregulation
- anxiety
- challenges associated with neurodiversity, sexuality and gender identity
- eating disorders
My therapeutic approach incorporates a broad range of systemic, social constructionist, narrative, solution focused and evidence-based ways of working. I am additionally trained in attachment based family therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy and family therapy for anorexia and bulimia nervosa.
My aim is to support the people I work with to make sense of their problems in the contexts of their histories, their current situations and their relationships. I aim to pay particular attention to the different aspects of identity that inform people's lived experience. My approach is to develop a safe space in which you can explore what is significant and meaningful for you, to identify your hopes, make changes and work towards realising your goals.
