About me

I'm a BACP accredited integrative psychotherapist and EMDR therapist working with adults.

People come to therapy for many different reasons. You may be struggling with something from the past, going through a difficult period now, or simply feel that something in your life needs to change.

I don't believe one type of therapy works for everyone. I draw on different approaches, including Person-Centred Therapy, CBT, and Somatic therapy. I also provide EMDR where appropriate. How we work will depend on you and what you need.

My approach is warm, down-to-earth and collaborative. I'm also fairly direct. I won't simply sit silently and nod. I'll listen, ask questions and offer different perspectives. When it may be helpful, I'll also challenge you.

Sometimes therapy involves understanding and processing experiences from the past. At other times, the focus is on what is happening now. We might look at patterns that keep repeating, different ways of responding, or practical changes you would like to make.

My aim is to help you understand yourself more clearly and work through what is getting in the way. Ultimately, therapy is about helping you make meaningful changes and find a way forward.

Areas of interest

I work with adults experiencing trauma, PTSD and complex trauma, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. I also have an interest in the effects of abuse and difficult past experiences.

Some people come to therapy because they feel stuck, overwhelmed or have lost their sense of direction. Others may be facing a significant change in their life or questioning their sense of meaning and purpose.

Where appropriate, I use EMDR to help people process distressing experiences that continue to affect them in the present.
