I endeavour to provide a safe and confidential space to help clients explore whatever difficulties they are experiencing, and to try to find ways forward.

If it would be helpful for you, I am happy to talk online or on the phone and discuss any questions concerning therapy with me. 

I am available to see people in person or online on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout the year, except for brief holidays around Christmas and during the summer. 

The address I work from is: 33a Canal Street, Jericho, Oxford. OX2 6BQ.

I also see people online on Monday evenings.

You may be feeling life is difficult at the moment, struggling with anxiety, depression or loneliness. You may be struggling with a bereavement. You may have a general feeling of dissatisfaction, making life difficult to manage. You may find that you are angry for much of the time. You may be looking for a way to alleviate suffering and solve your problems in order to live a more satisfying life where you are more at ease with yourself and with other people. Whatever it is that you are struggling with, you might find it helpful to explore these thoughts and feelings in a safe and confidential environment. I hope to provide such a place. 

I am a qualified Psychotherapist and Counsellor with many years experience working in a variety of contexts. I am a qualified Integrative Psychotherapist which enables me to work with many kinds of emotional difficulties. I have extensive experience of working with people in times of trauma and stress. I endeavor to provide a safe and confidential space to help clients explore whatever difficulties they are experiencing, and together to try to find ways forward.

Therapy is an opportunity to explore your thoughts and feelings and to try to understand why you are feeling the way you are, to explore what changes could take place so that you cope better and are more content with your life.

I usually conduct counselling and psychotherapy in person in Jericho, Oxford. I will also see clients online if that is preferred.

I am available to see supervisees and clients on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I see people in person but can also see people online as required.

I also see people online on Monday evenings.  

The address I work from is: 33a Canal Street, Jericho, Oxford OX2 6BQ. 

I work through the year taking holidays in the summer and over Christmas. 

I am an Integrative Psychotherapist but I also work with people from other modalities. I qualified to become a Supervisor after studying at the Metanoia Institute where I gained a Certificate in the Principles of the Theory and Practice of Supervision.

In Supervision I hope to provide the following:

Provide a forum to reflect and discuss the work with clients. Give support and encouragement in the work that is done well. Highlight areas of work that may need developing. Offer guidance on alternative ways forward with work with clients. Make space to discuss ethical issues to ensure that the work is done within professional guidelines.

 I am particularly interested in working with trainees and am willing to charge them at a reduced rate.

Fees for Supervision: I charge £65.00 for the hour; £100.00 for ninety minutes.
