People seek out psychotherapy and counselling for many different reasons. 

When life feels overwhelming, psychotherapy creates space to explore the overwhelming, challenging feelings that you may be experiencing. I place importance on exploring the root cause of the problem and provide an affirming therapeutic space to facilitate change.

A strong therapeutic relationship forms the foundation of my practice. As a psychodynamic practitioner, I offer a space of reflection and exploration. I work alongside you as we explore past experiences and process the feelings and emotions we hold as a result of these experiences. In my approach, we work collaboratively to uncover and work through patterns and behaviours in a safe and supported environment. By exploring what is going on for you and making links between the past and the present we gain greater insight into ourselves - this is where we can make significant change.

As we continue to develop an understanding of ourselves, we can begin to meet the wounded parts of ourselves with compassion. This may look like overcoming stress, anxiety, depression, guilt and shame. As we overcome these challenges and meet them with compassion we can begin building confidence, a greater sense of self and improve relationships with ourselves and others. 

To maintain stability, I offer weekly 50 minute sessions at a set time and day and offer both online or in person sessions.

I maintain cultural awareness and sensitivity by respecting difference, including where our backgrounds and identities differ as it relates to race, ethnicity, sexuality, faith, class, gender and neurodiversity. I also hold in mind trauma that has been passed through generations and the impact that this has on the individual. 

My specialisms include bereavement and loss, sex and relationships, identity work, depression, anxiety and trauma.

I am a registered member of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ and abide to their ethical framework. I am committed to continuing professional development and supervision to support my practice.  

I offer a free initial consultation providing an opportunity to discuss what brings you to therapy. Whether there is a specific issue you would like to focus on or an exploration into different aspects of your life, I offer short term, long term and open ended therapy. The fee for in person sessions start from £80, online sessions start from £65. We would discuss this in our initial consultation. 

Following the consultation, we will book our first 50 minute session. The first session involves a further discussion around what brings you to therapy and a mini assessment. The assessment will provide me with a sense of your background and current situation. The first session will provide an opportunity for you to ask any concerns and thoughts you may have. 

There is no obligation to continue after this first session. There is also no expectation as to what you bring to the space. In my practice, I work alongside you to create a space that feels trusted and supported, this includes the pace that we work at.
