About me and my therapy practice

Welcome! Lots of profiles, aren't there?

The paradox of choice sets in; how do I choose the right person? IS there a right person? How will I know? The truth is, there is no way of knowing until you try. There aren't any 'wrong' choices, and you will learn what you are looking for as you explore. But there is something that brought you here, isn't there?

I am an integrative counsellor and coach, with experience in working with a range of complex issues and in challenging situations. My approach is collaborative, active, and holistic. I offer a reliable, confidential and non-judgemental space to help you explore your inner thoughts and feelings and support you in times of transition, distress and emotional need.

We all have the right to be heard and seen. Sometimes we get stuck along the journey of life and encounter challenging thoughts and emotions. Experience the freedom of living authentically, with a life of meaning and joy. Gaining understanding and insight into who you are, what you are experiencing, and how you can find a way to manage these thoughts, feeling and emotions is extremely powerful, and empowering.

If you're happy to continue, we will set up further sessions at a time that works for you

Practice description

Alongside being a BACP registered therapist and coach I have been working in research for a number of years, with a focus on trialing behaviour-based interventions to improve people's quality of life and health outcomes in a wide variety of settings.

I am passionate about finding the right help, for the right person, at the right time. Each person is unique and brings with them their own personal history, problems and opportunities for healing. Accordingly, through my integrative practice I provide an equally unique and personal approach to therapy for each individual.
