About me and my therapy practice
I am a qualified and experienced counsellor with over 7 years experience and over 5 years working within the NHS.
Before retraining as a counsellor, I spent many years working as a commercial lawyer in London. This means I understand high pressure environments and what the personal cost can be of holding things together for too long. My analytical skills developed while working in the legal field bring a helpful approach to my work.
I offer a warm, safe and confidential space for you to explore what may be going on for you.
Practice description
I work with adults (18+) suffering from depression and anxiety with a particular focus on:
Burnout or chronic stress
Navigation of life transitions
Divorce or relationship breakdown and problems (I work with individuals only)
Menopause and other midlife change
Stuckness, overwhelm and disconnection
Trauma
My approach is integrative, drawing on several therapeutic models while being grounded in the humanistic belief that people have an innate capacity for growth when they are met with empathy, understanding and acceptance.
Clients say I am insightful, professional and non-judgemental.
