WELCOME. I offer psychotherapy, counselling and trauma counselling to individuals experiencing a wide range of emotional, relationship, trauma and work related issues. Overall, my style of working is one of promoting inner growth and strength by providing a supportive and conducive environment built on mutual trust, respect, honesty and real contact. I achieve this by making myself available to my clients through focusing on the here and now, including the relationship between my clients and myself. I have been counselling since 2007. I have an MSc in Gestalt Psychotherapy; Clinical Diploma in Psychotherapy and Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling (Gestalt) from the Metanoia Institute. I am a UKCP registered psychotherapist and a Certificated EMDR practitioner. I have experience of working in voluntary settings, large public/private organisations and private practice, with people from a wide range of backgrounds who come to therapy with very varied problems and issues. I believe my training and life experience enables me to support my clients through their struggles and helps them to make life-changing decisions based on thoughtful choice and a sense of a stronger inner self.

I have experience of providing supervision to both trainee and qualified counsellors in a range of different organisational settings including my private practice. I provide both individual and group supervision.

I work from a Gestalt humanistic perspective, bringing in consideration of other theories and approaches as appropriate. I am particularly interested in how often the process between my Supervisees and myself is a reflection of the client material we are considering.

I believe my life and professional experience, together with my psychotherapeutic training and relational approach enables me to support my Supervisees by creating a mutually challenging, supportive and conducive learning environment, thereby providing the space for Supervisees to make meaningful connections between supervision and client work, whilst at the same time enhancing and developing their skills set and paying attention to their growing edge(s).

For the foreseeable future, I will be providing all supervision either online or on the telephone.
