About me

Mandala Counselling & Psychotherapy offers a quiet, comfortable and private space where individuals and couples can speak openly and be met with care, respect and thoughtful attention.
I aim to provide a calm, supportive environment where you can explore whatever is troubling you � whether this feels clearly defined or hard to put into words. My approach is collaborative and responsive, shaped around you rather than a fixed agenda. I work at a pace that feels right, helping you develop understanding, clarity and resilience in ways that feel meaningful and sustainable.
I am an accredited member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society and the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, and I offer counselling and psychotherapy for both individuals and couples.
Mandala is located on the edge of Dartmoor in a peaceful rural setting, just a few minutes from the A38. I work with clients from Plymouth, Ivybridge, Exeter, Cornwall and surrounding areas. Free parking is available, with disabled access and facilities.

Areas of interest

Pluralistic and integrative psychotherapy:
I work pluralistically, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches to help clients make sense of difficulties, move forward, or find a new direction. My work is flexible, tailored and respectful of individuality, supporting clients to access their own insight, strength and understanding.
Core therapeutic values:
Person-centred and relational principles underpin my work, with an emphasis on collaboration, emotional safety and trust.
Approaches and methods used:
CBT; MBCT; mindfulness and meditation; insight-oriented and solution-focused work; Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed approaches; compassion-focused and compassionate inquiry work; psychodynamic exploration; body-based tools; inner child work; couples communication tools; Advanced Flash Technique (from EMDR) for processing trauma and distressing memories.
Mode of delivery:
I work mainly in person, with online appointments also available.
