About me

I am an experienced (8 years +) psychotherapeutic counsellor and a graduate from Nick Duffell's Diploma in Specialist Psychotherapy with ex-boarders.

My first career was in Finance, then I was a stay-at-home mother before embarking on my post graduate counselling training. I offer both short and long-term counselling with individuals over the age of 18. The first step is so often the hardest to take and I therefore offer a free 30 minutes initial session for you to decide whether or not I am the right therapist for you.

My core training is Psychodynamic and I have also completed further training in Cognitive Based Therapy (CBT). My particular area of interest is attachment trauma and I specialise in working those who have attended Boarding School. I have experience working with a broad range of issues including trauma, anxiety, loss, abuse, depression, sexuality, identity and relationship difficulties.

I work with individuals initially exploring what has brought them to therapy. If things were okay you would not be seeking therapy and I would work with you to enable change such as becoming unstuck, escaping repeated patterns of behaviour and how we are positioned by others. I would explore with you issues that you bring so that you can make the changes you want in the way you want. I provide a safe, non-judgemental and confidential environment where all issues can be discussed including those we find hard to admit even to ourselves. I believe therapy should enable clients to explore their issues and move in the direction they want. So often we are surviving when we could be doing so much more. Therapy can enable movement from a position of surviving to a position of living.
