About me

Awareness * Reflection * Empowerment of self

The vision on which I base my work is pluralistic and grounded in tolerance and a welcoming attitude. I am passionate about my work, helping people in need, dealing with work- related and life dilemmas in emotionally hard times, crises and conflict. I believe in a life of authentic connection to ourselves, our thoughts, our feelings, our sensations, connection to the people we love, to our planet and our world.

I am an independent professional psychotherapist, supervisor, registered practitioner member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP/HIPC) and a leadership coach, with a degree in Psychology.

I have been trained in the Standard EMDR training (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing Therapy, part 4)/ EMDR UK and EMDR Europe Association. I specialise in treating mental health conditions related to trauma, working both in person and online.

Therapy can be a way of facing the issues that are troubling you. Through it you can be guided on how to understand yourself better, and how to find the deeper centre of your being, where problems can be seen in a new perspective: a place where you encounter your own wisdom and creative potential.

If you are casting around for a source of help to see you through what seems like a bewildering or difficult time, or feel ready for a voyage towards self-discovery, l would like to offer a space where you can safely explore things beneath the surface.

I offer free introductory phone calls, please email me in order to arrange this.

Key details

DBS check info

In England and Wales, the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS, formerly known as CRB) carry out criminal records checks for individuals working with vulnerable groups, such as children. To find out more, visit gov.uk , or contact this professional directly

Wheelchair user access info
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.

In my Oxford venue there is a wheelchair access and a therapy room available on the ground floor.
