About me
Hello. I am an independent integrative therapist. I don’t believe that one size fits all for therapy and use a variety of therapy styles to create an individual programme to support each client.
Finding the right therapist is a daunting challenge and I advise clients to ring around to talk to people before they commit. Making a positive choice to work with a particular therapist is a major mental buy-in for your trust.
I generally work from a therapy space that has been purpose-built. It offers a discreet, warm calm space to explore thoughts and emotions. Sometimes clients prefer a walk-and-talk session in the country park across the road and sometimes Video sessions are more suitable.
I run a warm and relaxed practice, often using humour, reflection and learnings from my own therapy and life experiences to relate to clients. I am in the process of training our Puppy to work as a therapy dog. Depending on how well that goes, she will be joining us for sessions and walks at client's request.

Since 2015 employers are expected to allow employees to attend therapy sessions in the same way that they do physio & dental appointments. So there are ways of asking.
