About me and my practice
I offer online psychotherapy and counselling, on both a long and short term basis.
Working with an integrative psychotherapeutic approach, I draw on a carefully selected and combined set of robust psychological and psychotherapeutic theories which cover a broad range of human experiences. This way of working allows me to construct a therapeutic approach which is tailor-made to your specific needs as an individual.
Some key issues I work with are: anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship difficulties, interpersonal boundaries, grief, confidence, assertiveness, sense of identity, outsider experiences, neurodiversity, finding meaning and purpose in life.
In therapy, we can explore many different areas of your experience, from your past, present and future hopes. We can explore thoughts, emotions, instincts, intuition, creativity and dreams, or whatever you may bring, to build up a sense of understanding and then determine ways of moving forwards that would best serve you.
Compassion is at the heart of my approach and my aim is to help you feel heard, understood, and to feel empowered to engage with life in the ways that feel right for you.
Experience
I work on a one-to-one basis with adults (18+) online via Zoom.
I have worked with adult clients of varying ages (late teens up to retirees) and backgrounds, with a range of presenting issues from depression and anxiety, addiction issues, grief and bereavement, identity issues, sexuality, existential concerns, big life changes, chronic and acute health issues and a host of others.
My background was mainly in music education and care provision, prior to transitioning to psychotherapeutic work. I spent many years working with people in SEND schools, care homes, hospitals and mainstream education settings. I feel this set of experiences has given me a broad understanding some of the diversity of peoples' experiences. I am however always learning, open to new ways of being, committed to continuing professional development and a client-centred approach.
I also have first-hand personal experience of acute and chronic illness, which I bring as further perspective to understanding my clients' struggles.
Qualifications
I hold a PGdip and MA in Integrative Transpersonal counselling and psychotherapy and a full clinical member of the UKCP.
I engage in regular professional development learning and clinical supervision, so as to be able to best support those I work with.

Initial Consultation
I offer a free-of-charge 20 min initial consultation via zoom, so we can discuss your challenges, needs and hopes for therapy. This meeting will give us an opportunity to see if we might be a good fit and discuss next steps.
Please send me an email to arrange and book.
Fees
I work on a sliding fee scale based on a pay-what-you-can-afford basis (subject to an assessment session and determining if I can provide the right therapy for you, and we can work well together.) I am happy to discuss fee adjustments to make working together financially manageable and sustainable - mostly with a view to long-term work.
In addition, I have some availability for low cost work and concessions for those on low/no income, Students, Keyworkers and other therapists.
Please do get in touch to discuss what is possible for your budget. As a guide, the most I would as is £80 per session, but that is very much the top-end of the scale.
When I Work
I offer sessions Monday - Thursday at various times daytime and evening.
Please send me an email / message for enquiries regarding current available times.
I look forward to hearing from you.
