About me
I am an Integrative Arts Psychotherapist with experience across NHS and charity sectors. I aim to provide a safe and non-judgemental space to explore difficult feelings and experiences at a pace that suits you. We can use art, movement, music and the imagination as a tool, but there is no need to be able to draw or make, and if you prefer just to talk or be then that is also very welcome. My work as a psychotherapist is firmly rooted in anti-oppressive practice and intersectionality, and helping people to find their own sense of empowerment, particularly after difficult or traumatic life experiences.
Training, qualifications & experience
My training is integrative, meaning I draw from different traditions to inform my practice, including psychodynamic and humanistic, as well as more recent developments in neuroscience and trauma-theory. Authenticity, communication, collaboration and finding ways to be in the present moment together form the foundation of the work.
As well as a masters in Integrative Psychotherapy using the Arts, I have additional training working with survivors of sexual violence, addiction and learning disabilities. I am also a member of the British Association of Art Therapists.
