I work relationally with the clients I see, aiming to build a shared understanding of their difficulties. Using integrative techniques (including evidence based psychodynamic, existential, humanistic & cognitive behavioural modalities) I focus on encouraging individuals/couples to identify their existing challenges, build an understanding of themselves & their situation, & reflect on why they may feel the way they do. Through this process it is possible to build long term resilience & a more robust sense of self, having identified patterns of relating to others. This includes developing skills & techniques for coping in the future.

Taking the step to work with a therapist can be an enriching experience with rewarding benefits. At some point in life we all endure struggles, suffering or loss. At times we are able to manage life's adversities, but sometimes feelings can become too overwhelming and we can get a bit stuck. Talking to a therapist, someone who is impartial with no previous involvement in our lives, can help make sense of the discomfort, pain or distress we are facing.

As an integrative counsellor, I use a range of approaches and models. I will work with you to help you to explore whatever life issues you may be struggling with. Our sessions gives you the opportunity to discuss your thoughts, feelings and experiences in a non-judgemental and confidential space. I will give you time to work out how to best cope with what you are facing, to come to terms with the past as well as to explore ways to improve your relationships. I will support you but also at times challenge you so that you can honestly evaluate and clarify what really matters to you.

Since 2009, I've been committed to supporting clients in their healing journey by offering talking therapy and conducting over 4000 successful EMDR sessions. Specialised training with Esther Perel enriches my marriage counselling approach, exploring issues like freedom versus security, struggles with intimacy and connection, emotional shutdowns, conflicts over finances and recurring arguments. In therapy, we start by understanding your story's narrative. We unravel underlying beliefs like "I'm not good enough," "It's my fault," and "I'm unsafe." Together, we collaborate to establish secure attachment and facilitate repair.

My ideal client is an individual struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or OCD. They often feel overwhelmed by their emotions and seek support to regain control of their lives. Their needs include practical coping strategies and a safe space to explore their thoughts and feelings. They aim to develop healthier thought patterns and build resilience. With my experience as a CBT therapist, I help clients understand their issues and create tailored interventions that empower them to confront their challenges. Ultimately, they want to achieve a sense of peace, improved relationships, and a fulfilling life.

I am a qualified Clinical Psychologist who works with children and adults through various mental health difficulties, although my main speciality is trauma & EMDR. I also offer child psychological assessments including Cognitive, Autism & ADHD assessments. I am passionate about supporting people to rebuild their identity and develop coping skills after difficult experiences. I recognise that mental health is impacted by negative beliefs, adverse experiences and relationships with others. I believe in a trauma-informed, non-blaming approach, which supports change to identify goals and work toward change.

I have been lucky enough in my career to date to work with some incredibly inspiring and brave individuals who have been at a crossroads in their life. Sometimes making change felt frightening or impossible due to past beliefs, stuck patterns of behaviour or limiting thought processes. Others were struggling to move on after devastation, illness, loss or identity crisis. I believe it is a privilege to be able to guide those in need at these times due to the courage and vulnerability they show. They are asking from the heart for a new beginning - to break from the past, not feel scared by the future and live truly in the present.

Reaching out can feel daunting - I offer empathy and a safe, supportive, environment in which we can explore issues and identify: your strengths, values, goals, alternative perspectives and potential changes. Many clients present with anxiety, depression, stress or lacking meaning/joy - we can address the issues that may feel overwhelming and disentangle them. We can either work on longer-term deeper changes or employ short-term strategies. Personal histories can impact on people and you have the option to address yours and change your lived experience. I work with diverse clients of all ethnicities/genders/sexualities/body shapes.
