About me and my therapy practice
I’m a Leeds based Supervisor, working in a well established private practice and trained in the Practice of Supervision, through an Integrative model. I offer a non-judgemental, holistic approach to you and your work from a humanistic, relational/psychodynamic perspective.
I work respectfully and collaboratively, as ally rather than expert, recognising we are both learning within our supervisory relationship. However, we’re always working in the best interest of your clients, you and your professional development. I believe given a safe, non-judgemental space, support and at times gentle guidance and encouragement, to explore all aspects of your professional life in an embodied way, the appropriate path forward for you within your work with clients will emerge.
Practice description
Trauma, [C]PTSD, Anxiety, Neurodiversity, Existential Crisis, LGBTQIA+ identities/lifestyles, HIV & Cancer diagnosis.
My first session
When you contact me, we’ll arrange a time to meet online via Zoom, for a free 30 – 40 minute introductory session. During this initial meeting, it’ll give you time to share a little of your education/modality, areas of expertise and what you hope for and need from our supervision and I will talk about and model how I might work alongside you. Prior to that meeting, I’ll send you a link to the zoom session with other information, including a supervision agreement for you to familiarise yourself with. If we feel we can work effectively together, we’ll discuss and sign our supervision agreement.

About me and my therapy practice
Hello. I am a Leeds based Integrative Psychotherapist, Counsellor & Supervisor. This means I am not restricted to working in one particular way. So I will adapt the way I work with you to suit you. I work short and long term with adults (18+) in an holistic way, from a humanistic and relational perspective. I offer a safe, confidential, non-judgmental, space to pause and reflect on your reasons for choosing to enter therapy, whilst working collaboratively with you towards your hopes for your future self.
My first session
When you contact me, we will arrange to meet for an initial assessment. This will give you time to share your story and discuss how we might work together. We can then decide if I am the right therapist for you. If we choose to work together we will discuss and sign a contract that outlines how we have chosen to move forward.
Our time together will start from where you find yourself; respecting that you are coping in the best way you can under difficult circumstances. We will sensitively explore your embodied feelings and thoughts about your presenting issues. This collaborative process might help you to gain new perspectives and form fresh insights that facilitate alternative ways of being that feel appropriate for you.
We can work together for as long as you feel it is necessary to work through your issues.
