About me and my therapy practice
BACP Accredited Psychodynamic Counsellor and UKCP Registered Psychotherapist, with 20+ years' experience working with adults and young people in diverse settings. These include private practice, university and college counselling, NHS Adult Mental Health services, employee assistance and workplace counselling. My experience also includes teaching counselling students, supervising therapists and working with groups.
We all carry within us an internal landscape made up of people, places and experiences which help shape who we are and how we relate to others. Outdoor or Psychodynamic in Nature therapy offers a way of exploring this interior world outdoors in nature, allowing the external landscape to reflect and illuminate our past and present relationships with self, other and place.
In therapy we may explore;
• the influence of past experiences on our present lives
• the power of unconscious processes
• the recurrence or repetition of patterns in relationships
• defences or the strategies we use to survive
• the connection between mind, body and our natural environment

About me and my therapy practice
I am an Integrative Psychodynamic Supervisor, with experience supervising trainee and qualified counsellors, psychotherapists and clinical psychologists. I have worked in a variety of settings as therapist and supervisor, apart from my own private practice. These include working within the NHS in Adult Mental Health and Health Psychology, Staff Support and Student Counselling.
I draw from the Hawkins and Shohet supervision model, informed by psychodynamic thinking. This is a relational model, which can be applied to many therapeutic approaches and settings.
My fees are £60 per hour or £90 for 1.5 hrs supervision.
Concessions are available for students and groups.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to explore this further.
I hold a Diploma in Supervision from The Guild of Psychotherapists, 2015.
