My approach

​

I offer a non-judgmental space where we can explore the challenges you're facing, together. My approach recognises that every individual’s experience is unique. I'm committed to understanding your personal story, needs, and circumstances.

​​​

I believe therapy is most effective when you feel truly seen, heard, and understood. I bring a grounded, practical approach to my work—acknowledging the real-world pressures we all face. We’ll move at your pace, working collaboratively to explore what’s difficult and to uncover your strengths.  While we may spend time exploring pain, difficulty, or confusion, I’m interested in what brings you joy, meaning, and a sense of possibility, what makes life feel most alive for you.

​​​​

As a therapist who incorporates body awareness, I’m inspired by the words of psychotherapist Dave Mann:

​

“The world may be made of atoms, but it is held together with stories.
These stories are held in our bodies as an embodied sense of who we are,
our sense of self-worth, what we believe we can and cannot achieve.”

​

Through the process of sharing your story, we’ll explore how you relate to yourself, to others, and to me—and how I can support you in realising your full potential..

My background

Before becoming a therapist, I spent 25 years working in factual entertainment television production. This experience gives me a, first-hand understanding of the stress and complexity of high-pressure environments—and the emotional toll they can take. It was also creative, I worked with some great people and got to travel the world whilst filming.

​

As a white woman of working-class origin, I bring awareness of how systemic oppression—such as class, race, ableism and other intersecting forms of inequality—can shape our sense of self, safety, and belonging. I also recognise my position affords me certain privileges, and I remain committed to reflecting on how these dynamics show up in and beyond the therapy space. As a therapist who aims to be anti-oppressive and neuroaffirming this is an ongoing process.
