About me:

When we fall into 'psychological distress' and overwhelm there can be a myriad of reasons why. My specialism is working with adults who identify some of their issues as coming from one of life's most essential questions: who am I? 

I began my journey as an integrative therapist during covid lockdowns after a long career in the film and television industry. I trained initially as a form of self development but the more training I wanted to do.

I use a client first and often challenging approach. I tend to prefer to focus on clients feelings in the "here and now”, but I regularly work across other popular forms of therapy including psychodynamic, cognitive behavioural therapy and coaching methods. 

I have experience working with low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, addiction, neurodiversity, issues related to workplace stress, relationship problems, life transitions and attitudes to food (binge or comfort eating). I have also experience with relatives of survivors of abuse, and guilt and shame associated with these.
