About me

I believe therapy gives people a regular and confidential space to talk about their worries, problems or a chance to explore more about themselves; to gain a new or different perspective. This can lead to positive and proactive changes in how they feel about themselves, their relationships, as well as future-proofing their thinking and behaviour.

I am a UKCP (United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy) accredited Integrative Psychotherapist and also a UKCP Accredited Integrative Child Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. I have worked with children and adults since 2017.

I work with the following presenting issues: anxiety and low self-esteem, complex-trauma, sexual abuse, bereavement and loss, self-harm, domestic violence, family and relational issues, depression and more. I integrate therapies, use a relational model and believe that a good rapport with my clients is vital for growth.

My experience with children and young people is stretched over ten years. Initially, as a sports coach and a primary school teacher before qualifying as a therapist. Additionally, I have worked with children from a variety of backgrounds, genders, cultures and non-English-speaking clients via interpreters.

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.

Please ask about wheelchair accessibility depending on location.
