About me and my therapy practice
Hello, work mostly with talking, asking you about how you feel and what you think. I encourage you to think about your life and relationships in different ways. I am interested in how we work together and what gets in the way of our relationship.
I am an experienced therapist who qualified in 2015. I have worked in a number of charity services, including a range of rape and sexual abuse services and domestic abuse services. This has given me a real understanding of how trauma impacts on people and their relationships and the human capacity for survival.
Since 2017 I have worked with young people aged 12 - 26 - working with anxiety, depression, gender and neuro-diversity. I love the creativity and energy that comes with working with young people and use more creative approaches to meet their needs.
I have professional and lived experience of autism and neurodiversity, and am a member of the bisexual communities. I would be more than happy to have a conversation about what you need to get the most from counselling.
Practice description
I offer 1:1 work in a friendly space in central Brighton. It's on all bus/train routes and a five minute walk from the sea. My main tools are listening and understanding. I'll aim to build shared insight that can help you make change.
I work with ethics and integrity; I will share my knowledge and experience with you where and when it's helpful for you.
I like to use solution focused approaches that will work with your existing skills. My knowledge about clearing and repairing trauma means that I will pay close attention to the pace and timing of your counselling and think about safety in all that we do. You will have choice, set the pace and have regular opportunities to give me feedback about how you feel your counselling is progressing.
My first session
I offer an initial meeting, for all people who are interested in counselling with me. This is charged at £20 for a half an hour session. At this meeting you can tell me about your life, what's going well, what is currently sticking and your aims or wishes for therapy. Once we've got a sense of the context we can decide if your needs will be met by a short-term piece of work (6 - 10 sessions) or a longer-term contract will be required.

About me and my therapy practice
I have worked with organisations and individuals for the last five years, delivering reflective practice groups for leadership teams and frontline practitioners.

I am an experienced trauma informed practitioner offering holistic, integrative clinical supervision to counsellors, therapists and students who enjoy working relationally and systemically.
Practice description
