Practice description

As an HCPC-registered counselling psychologist with doctoral-level training in evidence-based approaches and years of experience in specialist NHS services, CAMHS, Higher Education, and the third sector, I am committed to consider your unique context. Having worked with children, young people, adults and older adults, I can adapt my approach to be age appropriate. As the coordinator of a trans counselling service, I’ve had the privilege of supporting trans, non-binary, gender diverse and questioning individuals, whilst line-managing both qualified and trainee therapists.

I believe that we all have a natural ability to move towards healing. For you to reconnect with yours, my hope is that we can co-create a relationship to help you find a road map and navigate life with greater ease. If you would like to consider how I can accompany you in this exploration, please check my website. I look forward to hearing from you.

Therapy qualifications

Doctorate in Counselling Psychology EMDR Therapy, EMDR Europe Certified Focusing Professional - Focusing-Oriented Therapy, The International Focusing Institute

Other therapy skills

I have proficient experience in helping clients with a variety of difficulties, such as relational problems, managing emotions and low self-esteem. I understand these as a natural response, often resulting from difficult life circumstances. I have a special interest in considering the intersection of traumatic experiences and often minoritised identities, such as neurodivergence, ethnic, sexual and gender diversity. Accordingly, I am trained in trauma-focused therapies.

General skills

Drawing from evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, trauma-focused CBT, experiential and psychodynamic therapies, we can decide what can work best to help you now.
