Online work
I now have availability to take on clients. I am currently offering online work as I appreciate that limiting to a specific location each week may not fit into your working schedule. Online can be a more flexible option for yourself but if the need should arise for face to face work we can certainly discuss that as an option.
About me and my therapy practice
I am a qualified psychotherapist. My practise offers a safe, supportive and confidential space for clients who work within the Music and Entertainment industries. I also work with clients who have family members who work within this umbrella.
Alongside my practise I work in the music industry for a well-established band. Within this role, my job has taken me in many directions including managing bands, live promotions, managing crew, working for record and publishing companies, festival production, and running a recording studio. In this time I have gained an in depth knowledge of the lifestyle this industry offers, the highs, lows and pressures that are associated with it.
Whilst all may appear great on the outside, from personal experience, I understand how in reality life can feel very lonely in such high pressurised situations for artists and industry professionals. The management of family/personal life versus life on the road, commitments to deliver others expectations and your own can all get in the way of being creative and often this leads to a block.
I've also seen the result of how building trusted and supportive relationships can be problematic within this industry resulting in addictions and isolation for example.
I also work with family members who are affected by loved ones who work within entertainment and music. Whether it be, for example, coping with long periods of absence as a result of life on the road, adjustments in routine, loneliness, isolation or managing connections and expectations when you come back together.
Practice description
It's my experience within this field that inspired me to embark on my formal Psychotherapy training at the University of Brighton believing that it is useful to anyone involved in these industries to feel that they are being listened to by someone who understands the line of work that they are in.
As a psychodynamic psychotherapist, I believe that today's problems can be rooted in lived experiences or past traumas. With careful excavation, they can be overcome when acknowledged in a confidential and safe environment and by building the relationship within the room.
I've found this way of working an essential tool in moving forward or becoming unstuck and ultimately helping with the reasons that you have come to therapy in the first place.
I am direct but compassionate and personable, easing in gently the connection in the therapeutic relationship where your change can begin.
These are some of the things that come up in therapy...
Anxiety
Addiction
Creative block
Depression
Isolation
Loneliness
Loss of Identity
Managing personal and external expectations within the industry
Self Esteem
Stress and trauma recovery
Partners and family members who have been effected by the entertainment lifestyle
Pressure on family life and relationships
Rejection
Relationships
Sexual assault
My first session
After your initial email or phone contact with me (the average response time is 24 hours) I will get back to you to organise our first introductory online conversation together usually done over Zoom. This session will be free and will last roughly 20-30 minutes.
Within this discussion, we will go over what has brought you to therapy. We will discuss the costs of the sessions which are £60 and a time and date for your first 50 minute therapy session to suit you should you wish to proceed.
I offer long and short term work.
Types of therapy
