About me
I am a Counselling Psychologist with extensive experience of working with adults, children and young people with a wide range of difficulties and mental health diagnosis.
I have trained in various therapeutic models, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, Schema therapy, Systemic and narrative therapies, attachment based psychodynamic therapy and EMDR.
While I am informed by evidence based models, I also integrate elements from other experiential approaches, such Voice Dialogue, Internal Family systems, psychodrama, creative arts, sandplay, and play therapy.
I use these main treatment modalities in an integrative way depending on the unique needs of the individual as I believe that no single theory and therapeutic approach can fully capture and describe the complexity of the human existence.
Although I have been working within the NHS and I am used to the medical paradigm of mental distress, I maintain a critical view of diagnoses. I am also aware of issues around prescribed psychiatric drug dependence and withdrawal.
