I am an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist.  I have a strong grounding in the Person Centred approach, which informs the way I work with the client at the centre of everything.  My therapeutic practice also integrates thinking and techniques from CBT, Psychodynamic theory, Somatic Experiencing, Polyvagal theory, Focus Oriented theory and I use breathing techniques where necessary for additional support.  For me, building a strong therapeutic relationship is central to working with people and the provision of an accepting, empathetic, safe environment to explore thoughts, feelings and experiences is my goal to aid the connection between myself and my clients.

 

My background includes working with parent/carers, young people, people with additional needs who are seeking a greater understanding of those needs, as well as the systems that may need to be navigated to get help and support.  I have also worked with young people who have gone through the criminal justice system, albeit not in a therapeutic role but in a supportive restorative practice approach to rehabilitation.  I was born in London and enjoy the experience being from London has contributed to my outlook on life, accepting and celebrating the vastness of the world and diversity of people it takes to build it.

 

I aim to build confidence in my clients to resolve their own issues through understanding and accepting themselves.  This is aided by techniques and tools that I have accumulated through my education and continuing CPD.

I have experience of working with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, self-esteem, gender dysphoria, generational trauma, ASD, ADHD and DLD.
