About me

I am a Psychotherapist and HCPC Registered Music Therapist, with an MSc in Clinical Psychology, an MSc in the Psychology of Pathological Addictions, and an MSc in Psychology: Methods and Techniques for Disability Support. I work, amongst others, with individuals facing depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, neurodiversity (e.g. ADH, ADHD), and learning difficulties. My integrative approach combines traditional talking therapies with non-verbal methods like music therapy and mindfulness, fostering growth and well-being in a safe, non-judgmental space. With years of experience, I guide clients towards achieving emotional resilience and self-awareness.
As an integrative practitioner, I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches, including mindfulness and breathwork techniques. My clinical expertise offers a well-rounded understanding of emotional health and patient care. I combine talking therapies with non-verbal methods to support your healing journey with compassion in a safe, non-judgmental space.
With experience working with a diverse range of clients of various ages, sexual orientations and beliefs, I offer a confidential, compassionate space for personal growth. My approach blends evidence-based psychological practices with music therapy, tailored to your journey. The sessions are designed to help you achieve well-being and personal insight.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.
