About Me

Integrative Therapist

My training is within an Integrative framework. This means that I use different theories and models of working within the therapeutic space. Some of these schools of thought include Psychodynamic, Person Centred, Humanistic, Systemic and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

You may not feel you have anybody to talk to about what you are experiencing or wish for a time and space for you, an opportunity to facilitate change or something more explorative and challenging. The benefits of Integrative Therapy are that together, we can create a personalised and unique way of working. My aim is to create a non-judgemental, confidential and safe space for you to be able to share thoughts, feelings and experiences- past and present.

Continued Professional Development

Further to my core training, I attend and partake in CPD events, conferences, workshops and on-going learning opportunities. Areas of further training have been within:

Alcohol, Addiction and Attachment, Domestic Violence and Abuse (DVA), Eating Disorders, Families, Gender, Narrative Therapy, Relationships, Self-Harm, Shame, Sex, Sexual Identity, Transgender Experience, Trauma.

Counselling and Psychotherapy

What is Therapy?

Therapy is and can be a different experience for each individual. Please see Therapy and Fees to learn more about the nature of therapy.​
