Availability
My availability can vary throughout the year as my practice spans three areas: Organisation / corporate, private psychotherapy & counselling, bespoke programmes for women & women's health.
The majority of my private 121 psychotherapy and counselling availability is on-line.
In-person sessions are available in Altrincham and Manchester City Centre from January 2025.
About me and my therapy practice
Operating at the meeting place of business and psychology, I work in the following areas:
1. Private Practice – Psychotherapy, Counselling & Coaching services.
2. Education & Training – Psychological skills training in the workplace
3. Women in Leadership - A guided coaching, wellbeing and mentoring programme tailored for women, inclusive of women’s health support (peri/menopause)
4. Organisational consultancy & leadership behaviour
My philosophy: I believe we can benefit from having a space to bring our unique challenges to a place where they can be heard, understood, acknowledged and known without judgement or a fear of ‘speaking up’ about what is really going on.
Self-belief / self -acceptance sits at the heart of enabling oneself to live a life that can flourish and be fully embraced. This is not about flicking a switch, or constant self-affirmation, it is a journey of exploration towards understanding the relationship with ourselves, others and the world.
Working together, we come to know of the root causes of issues, reframe our thinking, gain perspective and create a new way to live a more fulfilled life.
Practice description
My passion is to enable more people and organisations to become psychologically resourced so that they can feel empowered to deal with the challenges and changes inherent in both life and work
I run a private and corporate practice, working with individuals to uncover the root cause of varying psychological and wellbeing concerns.
As an integrative psychotherapist, I use a variety of tools and methods - I am here to listen and to help you explore your experiences, providing tools to support, nurture and resource you over the longer term.
My first session
It’s vital that clients feel comfortable and supported, so the first step is a 15 minute joint chemistry call (Free of charge).
This is a welcome, with the opportunity to explore your current concerns and how we can best work together.
Working with the human aspects of business and life, understanding intentions and desired outcomes are important, whilst at the same time appreciating the organic nature of new and emerging aspects in the process.
If you decide you would like to go ahead and work together, we will discuss session availability, time frames, frequency and costs.
Standard confidentiality and intake forms are provided at this stage also.
