About me

I know that taking the initial step to get a therapist can seem daunting, especially when life events and our ways of coping with them can leave us feeling stuck, confused or overwhelmed. I provide a calm, collaborative and empathic space, where you can work through your difficulties at your own pace. Gestalt therapy emphasises the importance of working in the present moment and an honest relationship between client and therapist as a portal to healing : this can enable you try out new ways of doing things, approach your life with presence and enjoy more meaningful connections with others. 

Although this is not an exhaustive list, I have nine years of clinical experience working with people struggling with a range of experiences that include  PTSD, Complex Trauma, Anxiety, ADHD, Bereavement, Depression and Family issues.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
