These workshops are run throughout the year

Using Gestalt therapy, I offer intuitive painting workshops for women to explore the hidden/repressed parts of themselves.

Theses sessions can be held in small groups or 1.1

Beginning with a sharing of story we then go on to create intuitive painting on canvas, this is to integrate back into the self the parts too painful to except.

This work is often powerful and transformational.

This is a workshop, however there will be provision for longer term therapeutic work for individuals if they would like to continue.

I currently have availability during the week.

I offer an approach based on mind, body and spirit which could be termed holistic. As a trauma survivor my passion stems from my own journey of healing. I understand first-hand the courage it takes to confront and work through the wounds of trauma. In my practice I offer a space to explore your experiences, express your emotions, and embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing. Through evidence-based techniques and a compassionate approach, I aim to empower you to reclaim your sense of safety, rebuild your trust in yourself and others, and find hope for a brighter future beyond the shadows of the past. Together, we can work through the complexities of trauma with courage, resilience, and unwavering support. you re not alone on this journey, I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

 `It is not the event itself that traumatises us but how we experience the event`. with extensive professional training and a compassionate approach, I provide a supportive environment for exploration and growth. my dual role as both therapist and survivor allows me to connect with clients on a profound level, facilitating a trusting and transformative healing experience. Our work together can aim to restore your balance to the whole self , to get you back in touch with your own power of thinking, feeling, acting and making choices to promote your own healing and well-being.

In our first session we will begin to gently look at what you would like to change, often this means exploring how you are living now. We will begin to explore ways of supporting you from the first session and create a firm foundation to support the work that will follow.

I am passionate about talking therapy, as well as having my own private practice in Guildford and offering online therapy, I am a qualified clinical supervisor and university lecturer/trainer in Humanistic counselling. 

 I work within a pluralistic framework that recognises the individuality within the exploration of making sense of ourselves, our relationships, our spiritual/transpersonal issues and our attempt of working towards self-acceptance.

My supervision is mainly through the lens of the seven eyed model, although I work very creatively with the supervisee to acknowledge their own process within the work with their clients. This gives new perspective and insight to the work.

I have extensive experience of offering supervision to those working with gender/ sexual diverse clients, domestic abuse, life limiting illness, addiction and autism .

I particularly welcome students and groups.
