About me and my therapy practice
Outdoor Therapist offering an alternative to traditional in the room therapy. I am a qualified counsellor, and an accredited Wilderness Therapist with additional training in working with children and young people. I have over 5 years experience working therapeutically in nature with both adults and young people on a one to one basis and group settings, specialising in domestic abuse, holding people psychologically safe in wild spaces. From a person centred perspective I facilitate a safe non judgmental space allowing you to reconnect with your self and nature. Like nature I believe that people thrive in the right environment.
Early into my therapeutic training I recognised that I wanted to take my practice outside. I have built up knowledge, understanding and awareness in the area, creating a solid foundation enabling me to ethically work therapeutically in nature.
