Practice description
I am an HCPC-registered and Chartered Counselling Psychologist with doctoral-level training in evidence-based practice. 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. Furthermore, I have a special interest in developmental trauma and the impact of systems of oppressions (such as cishetero, white, neuro, able-bodied normativity) on mental health. I believe that we all have a natural ability to move towards growth. For you to reconnect with yours, my hope is that we can co-create a relationship to help you find a roadmap and navigate life with greater ease. Collaboration is key: together we can decide what can work best now for healing and change to emerge. If you would like to consider how I can accompany you in this exploration, please check my website below. I look forward to hearing from you.
Therapy qualifications
Doctorate in Counselling Psychology. Certified Focusing-Oriented Therapist. EMDR (Standard Accredited Training). AEDP (Level 3). Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (Level 1)
Other therapy skills
I specialise in trauma and attachment-informed therapies that focus on your experience of emotions and body sensations as your inner compass. Beyond learning techniques, this can help you develop a deeper understanding of what’s keeping you stuck with the aim of increasing compassion for yourself.
General skills
I have years of experience in supporting people of all ages in NHS trauma, addiction, child & adolescent services, Higher Education, and the third sector. Most importantly, I am committed to consider your unique and diverse experience.
