About me and my therapy practice

 Enabling and Empowering you to live the best life you  

Through previous experiences of exclusion stigma vulnerability and disability I can offer a therapeutic relationship that is safe, confidential, non–judgemental compassionate supportive space to explore anything that is troubling you. Together, there would be the opportunity to find the best way forward for you to be able to a more meaningful, purposeful, and contented way of being by building a compassionate awareness of who you are and how you function from your story. By understanding and working through earlier experiences this can be the key to emotional resilience empowerment and positive change. I am experienced at working with complex situations with an integrative approach that can be creative, flexible and adaptable to engage you in a person-centred recovery journey.

As a disabled person who has lived her entire life managing physical and neurodiverse impairments while navigating a world where difference is often seen as a problem rather than as a blessing. I bring a wealth of experience to support those with disabilities as well as their partners, families, and carers. I understand the difficulties in coming to terms with living with a disability/medical condition whether new, or long term, as well as trying to adapt to a lifestyle that often involves new challenges every day. I understand, the impact of trauma, mentally and physically. I understand the grief of loss of aspects of life either taken away or never been available to you. I understand the coping strategies that perhaps have been beneficial short term yet become destructive over time (i.e addictions). I understand the anxiety and depression that goes hand in hand with being different. I can walk alongside you, to help find your true authentic self to become happy in your own skin. I have walked that walk. 

 

I draw on different theoretical models to suit your needs, such as compassion - focused, relational, person centred & psychodynamic.

Practice description

I have a small private practice working from a consulting room, adjacent to my home located in a quiet road in Shepperton near Walton Bridge. There is parking on my drive and my room is wheelchair accessible.

I am a 15-minute walk from Shepperton High Street and the station and under 15 minutes from Walton on Thames town centre.

In addition, I have online sessions available.

I work both short and long term, the time is unique to you, and we agree through review and discussion according to your needs. 

My first session

I offer a free 30 minute telephone consultation where we begin to explore your story and how counselling could help you at the time. 

It is an opportunity and to see if we can work together and to see if this is the right therapy for you. It provides you with an opportunity for you to ask any questions you might have. There is no obligation to go on working together after this conversation.
