​For over 20 years, I have worked in a range of roles alongside people from many different backgrounds, to support them to find ways to improve their lives.  I have qualifications in counselling and psychotherapy, psychology, education, coaching and leadership and management.

 

In addition to working in private practice for 11-110 year olds, I lecture at the University of Brighton, support families through the Schools Mental Health Service and work with Neurodivergent people in specialist provisions.

I aim to be actively welcoming and inclusive. My approach is one that makes room for you, whatever your race, class, sexual orientation, gender identity, spiritual beliefs, culture,  political position or physical condition. Please feel welcome to be yourself and let me know if you need any specific support to enable your full involvement in therapy.

​

I have a Postgraduate diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy. This means I have a special interest in how you have been impacted by early childhood experiences and we may consider your unconscious in the work we do together. 

​

Primarily, though, your therapy sessions are about whatever you wish to explore, think about or question. I aim to be open and explorative, allowing plenty of time and space to learn about yourself without judgement. Whilst therapy can be serious and difficult, there is often a surprising amount of playfulness and humour that is possible in a safe, reflective space.

​

I have completed training in trauma informed practice, suicide prevention, working with survivors of childhood abuse and those living with complex trauma.
