About me and my therapy practice
I am a fully qualified Integrative Psychotherapist and Supervisor as well as an accredited registered member of British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MÌÇÐĹÙÍø), I abide by their ethical framework for safe therapy.
Alongside my private practice, I work with individuals, couples and groups in a private hospital.
My role is to provide you with a safe space and guidance to help you on your journey of self discovery; to enable you to examine your life and make new, meaningful choices within it.
I am an Integrative therapist, which means I use different approaches, working both with the conscious and unconscious parts of self and I tailor sessions to align to my clients needs. I have completed advanced training in Compassion Focused Therapy. Regardless of the approach, each client is offered a safe, supportive and non-judgmental space to explore their own feelings and thoughts.
The outcome is to feel empowered.
