About me and my therapy practice
I am a psychologist and psychotherapist with over 15 years of experience.
I offer a considerate, genuine and dependable professional relationship that will support you to explore your past and present experiences and develop a deeper self-awareness.
Deciding to come to therapy can be daunting. IAM Counselling provides you with a unique, gently curated space for reflection about what a good life means for you.
You will be invited into a collaborative and tailored therapeutic conversation that fosters curiosity and clarity about your inner world, while promoting compassion and warmth towards yourself and others.
We will work together to gain useful insights into your presenting difficulties, then make a plan that allows you to attend to different aspects of your life at your own pace, and in a way that ensures long-term wellbeing.
Practice description
I have dedicated my adult life to the study and understanding of the nervous system, the human mind and how people build relationships with themselves, others and the world around them.
I approach this work with curiosity and relish the vast array of human experience and its historical, cultural and neurological diversity.

My first session
Once you get in touch, I will reply within 24 hours (during the working week) and offer you an appointment.
The appointments are 50 minutes with a few minutes either side for settling in and saying goodbye at the end. Each session is charged at £75.
On your first session we will have an initial conversation about what are your desired outcomes from therapy.
We will think about what events and significant relationships form part of your present and what are the sources of frustration, pain or confusion.
We can then decide the scope and pace of our work together in a way that makes sense and is sustainable for you.
