About me
Hello, I'm a psychologist and trauma therapist with extensive experience of working with people who experienced abuse, loss, depression, anxiety, substance misuse, physical health issues. I use different techniques and approaches throughout the therapeutic process based on the client's needs. I combine counselling with CBT, EMDR and arts therapy, but I also use breath work, visual exercises and parts work in my practice. I mainly work online but also offer in person sessions in Shoreham-by-sea, West Sussex.
Training, qualifications & experience
Originally I trained in Health psychology and Counselling, then Dramatherapy, CBT, EMDR and a trauma therapy technique called the Comprehensive Resource Model. I'm registered with the HCPC, the British Psychological Society and the British Association for Dramatherapists. I'm fully insured and DBS checked.
