As a Senior Accredited Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor, I have worked with hundreds of individuals and groups as a therapist since 2010, supporting a vast array of life circumstances and emotions that prevent people from leading their lives in the happiest and fullest way possible.
There are four key areas that therapy sessions can support you with, these are:
Difficult emotions - whether you’re struggling with low self-esteem, feeling angry, or confused about things that have happened or are happening in your life.
Mental or physical health challenges - including depression, anxiety or upsetting health conditions/diagnoses.
Upsetting life events - for example, bereavement, relationship breakdown or work-related stresses.
Building self-awareness/identity - this can include exploring challenges around gender or sexual identity, along with other changes in life that lead you to question who you are or what you want from life.
Following my initial qualification as an Integrative practitioner underpinned by the Clarkson Relational Psychotherapy framework, I’ve subsequently gone on to specialise in two distinct therapeutic disciplines, namely:
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy - enabling me to work with longer-term clients seeking transformational change and support with deeper rooted, trauma related or life long wellbeing challenges.
Cognitive, Behavioural and Motivational Therapies - enabling shorter term issue-specific or outcomes focussed therapeutic work including support with phobias, anxiety, workplace or family related stress and anger.
I work with adults, young people (aged 11+) and couples.
Anxiety-related life challenges including relationship and sexual issues.
£60 per session.

I have served as a group and individual supervisor for a variety of youth and adult focussed counselling agencies alongside working with supervisees in a private practice setting. My clinical experience as a counsellor and psychotherapist includes a number of settings namely: voluntary sector agencies, NHS IAPT services and private practice. These experiences have led me to gain experience in supervising both short-term, goal focussed work (often used with younger clients and in agency settings) and long-term relational psychotherapy (particularly where there is a focus upon trauma and attachment-related issues) that I more frequently work within private practice.
My work as a college lecturer in counselling and in agency settings means that I regularly supervise student/trainee counsellors in conjunction with providing specialist adoption and relational trauma-focused supervision to qualified practitioners in private practice.
Relationship and psychosexual Issues, including attachment and trauma-related experiences.
My supervision style reflects an integrative philosophy and is based upon the Hawkins and Sohet seven-eyed model of supervision.
