I originally trained as an integrative arts psychotherapist, so there is opportunity for those who would like to work with art and creativity within the sessions. This may include sandtray work, painting, drawing, using postcards and bodywork or using metaphor or images real or imagined. My work as a therapist is informed by many different approaches/theories which enables a more tailored fit for each client according to what they are bringing and wanting to work on. I draw from many psychotherapeutic theories such as humanistic, existential, attachment and psychodynamic.

In more recent years I have been exploring and getting to know my own neurodivergence; I self identify as AuDHD, which has taken much of my work in this direction, so I tend to work mainly with neurodiverse clients. I am passionate about social justice issues and hold in mind how this may show up in the therapeutic space and affect the lives of clients outside in the world, and I won’t shy away from talking about politics in the therapy room! I really strive to be a safe person for all identities, races and cultures, and am particularly interested in people’s subjective experience primarily.

I prefer working long term with clients as I like to give time for the therapy process to unfold and deepen, but I am able to offer short term therapy sessions too, all with regular reviews to see how the client is feeling about our work together, I am very open to feedback and will use the therapeutic relationship that is built as a bedrock of the work.

I can offer both in person sessions and online sessions via zoom if more convinient or preferred. Sessions tend to be held on a weekly basis at the same time and day and I am able to offer fortnightly sessions too, when agreed that this rhythm can work well. Sessions are held for 50 minutes.

I work with adults from 18 years old.
