About me
My practice is shaped by over twenty years’ experience working with individuals, therapists,
and trainee practitioners.
I've been working as a therapist since 2005, supporting people to understand themselves more deeply and move through life's challenges with greater clarity, compassion, and confidence.
My approach is integrative, with a strong transpersonal influence, drawing on Jungian psychology and psychosynthesis. In practice, this means I work with the whole person - mind, body, emotions, and a deeper sense of self. I believe that each of us has an innate capacity for growth and an inner wisdom that can guide us, even when life feels uncertain or overwhelming.
I hold a Master's degree in Psychotherapy, a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling, and a Diploma in Integrative Supervision. Alongside my private practice, I've been the editor of Private Practice- the BACP journal for counsellors and psychotherapists in private practice - since 2011. I also teach and supervise trainee therapists, work that continues to deepen and enrich my own practice.
I'm a registered member of the UKCP and work in accordance with its Code of Ethics. Ongoing supervision, professional development, and reflective practice are central to how I work, helping me offer therapy that is thoughtful, ethical, and responsive to each individual.
Before becoming a therapist in my mid-thirties, I worked in the performing arts. Looking back, the thread running through both careers is a fascination with what it means to be human - our stories, the roles we inhabit, and our capacity for growth and change.
I’m LGBTQIA+ allied, neurodivergence-informed, and mindful of how discrimination and inequality can affect mental health.
Confidentiality
Feeling safe enough to speak openly is essential to therapy. Everything you share with me is treated as strictly confidential.
Like all UKCP-registered therapists, I attend regular professional supervision to support my work. No identifying information is ever shared, and supervision itself is fully confidential.
