Practice description
I am a systemic relationship and individual counsellor/therapist working online and by phone. I am also a supervisor, tutor and trainer. I have many years experience of working with people who are neurodiverse. In practice I use aspects of Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, and Existential Therapy to stimulate thought and generate ideas. I understand that not everyone explores their feelings through talk and conversation, so I use drawing, the written word and music to support your exploration of life in general, your feelings, lived experiences, relationship difficulties, grief and bereavement. I offer a warm, inclusive safe space where you will be supported in uncovering meaning and building your preferred future. I am a registered member of the NCIP and a professional associate member of COSRT.
