About me

I am a UKCP accredited relational integrative psychotherapist, and psychotherapeutic counsellor working with adults since 2016. I work relationally which means I believe that the relationship between therapist and client will be key to successful therapy (it’s also evidence-based). I believe in every client I work with and hold hope for each person until they are ready to hold it themselves. I see myself as a guide or a facilitator on your journey and I may offer some strategies or theories to support the work. I offer both short term focussed and longer term open ended therapy sessions both online and in person.

I have a particular interest in transgenerational and inherited trauma and in supporting clients to set boundaries and find self belief.

My interest in counselling began back in 2006 working for what is now the Care Quality Commission where I completed some basic training in counselling skills. After moving on and spending 15 years working in the private sector with digital and creative agencies I chose to develop my passion for supporting others to live more fully and retrain as a psychotherapist. I trained at the Northern Guild Counselling & Psychotherapy and completed my MSc in Psychotherapy in conjunction with Newman University. As part of my training I have been on my own therapy journey over many years and so know what it can be like to be the client.

My private practice started by working at the Northern Guild for Psychotherapy where I worked working with both trainee therapists and private clients and in 2022 I decided to set up my own dedicated practice room in the Ouseburn.

In addition to my private practice I’ve worked as a tutor for students training to be therapists, have experience offering therapy to trainee therapists and worked as a counsellor within an NHS Occupational Health team offering short term 6 session therapy.
