About me
Hello.
I am an experienced, UKCP qualified and accredited psychotherapist working with both individuals, and couples. My training as an Integrative Psychotherapist draws from a variety of relational psychotherapy approaches and holds the philosophy that change can happen within the therapeutic relationship.
How I work
Talking about our experiences, thoughts and feelings which are impacting our life can be the first step to understanding ourselves more and where we begin to make change. I fully understand this may be a daunting prospect and to support this, I offer empathy and a safe, non-judgemental space to explore together patterns and themes in your life, both past and present which may be causing you difficulty.
For therapy to be successful, it is important that you feel comfortable and safe with the therapist and the initial consultation is an opportunity to help you decide if I am the right therapist for you. During this session you can get to know a little bit about me and how I work; it will also give me the opportunity to understand your reasons for seeking help and support and begin to talk about how we may work together.
I have experience working with a wide range of issues such as anxiety, depression, low mood, stress, trauma (including PTSD), bereavement and loss, abuse, conflict, childhood issues and relationship difficulties.
I offer both face to face and online sessions, which can be short or long term therapy. My practice is in the centre of Belper with parking near by and has good links to public transport.
