About me and my therapy practice
I am a psychotherapist with 17 years' experience working for social services, GPs, local government and in private practice. Proficient in talking and creative therapies, I work with adults and children. I am experienced in delivering therapeutic interventions for: Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Separation and Loss, Transition, Grief, and Relationship Difficulties. I also offer Clinical Supervision.
Practice description
I am a psycho-dynamic and person centred therapist. Psycho-dynamic counselling is based on developing insight, self-awareness and an understanding of how past events or trauma affect a person in the present. A person centred approach encourages the client to explore and understand themselves, recognising their own strengths and unique identity.Psychotherapy literally means to nurse the soul. Everyone brings their own unique way of being into every relationship and I am always excited to get to know each client. The key ingredient of my work is to create a safe and respectful space where feelings can be explored in order to promote personal growth, healing and empowerment.
