About me
I work one to one with adults providing a comfortable, safe space to create sufficient trust to explore what is difficult. I am creative and collaborative in my approach and will discuss how we might work together in order to tailor our sessions accordingly. I offer an initial 20 minute telephone or Zoom consultation free of charge, to determine what you are finding difficult and how and if I might help.
I will work alongside you looking at your challenges, source of distress, future personal goals and relationships. Our therapeutic relationship is key in helping to unblock areas in your life that may feel stuck or painful. By gaining a deeper self-awareness, therapy can guide you to consider new ways of thinking and feeling about a situation and can be quite life-changing.
This can then lead to an exploration of how you might wish to move forwards, even if that feels like an impossibility right now. I have just completed further professional training in Psychosexual therapy and will you the chance to bring any issues you wish to explore with an open sex-positive attitude and curiosity about your particular unique situation.
I work with both short and long-term clients, offering face to face and/or video call sessions as most appropriate to your needs. During the pandemic I worked with a floor to ceiling screen dividing us so I can use this again if someone needs me to.
I am also a registered member of BACP. I work within their ethical frameworks and hold full professional civil liability insurance. I am a member of the Accredited Voluntary Register which has been accredited by the Professional Standards Authority. You can check to see if a therapist is registered with them by going to their website:- http://www.bacpregister.org.uk/
I am committed to continual professional development to enhance my therapeutic work.
