Email meAbout me
I am a UKCP registered Psychotherapist with a broad range of experience in the NHS, in private practice and in the voluntary sector. I'm currently working in the NHS and Private practice.
As an Integrative therapist I believe different counselling and psychotherapy approaches all have something unique and valuable to offer, so I draw on various theoretical ideas. This means the therapy varies depending on the particular needs of each person.
My initial core training and learning integrated Gestalt/Dialogical Therapy, that emphasises process and contact, with psychodynamic approaches. Relationship is at the core of my work. I'm also interested in how our thoughts, feelings and behaviours are all inter-related and have undertaken training in CBT.
I take a inclusive, non-pathologising view of gender and sexuality.
