My approach is rooted in Integrative Transactional Analysis, a relational framework that helps you understand your "life script" and the survival strategies that may no longer serve you. I have a special interest in Psychotrauma (currently undergoing advanced training with Dr. Ralf at the Trauma Institute, Leipzig) and Perinatal Psychotherapy (trained with Dr. Emma Haynes).
I offer a professional yet grounded space where you don't have to "perform". My practice is primarily based in my home office in Trafford, where I work four days a week. I am also at the Manchester Institute of Psychotherapy (MIP) in Chorlton one day a week. I also offer sessions online via zoom.
I offer a free 30 minute telephone or Zoom consultation to see if we are the right fit. If we decide to work together, we move into weekly 50 minute sessions.
I am a UKCP registered Psychotherapist with 8 years of experience in private practice. I believe therapy is less about "fixing" an old version of yourself and more about the brave process of becoming who you are now. I work with individuals and couples, helping them navigate the space between "just managing" and truly living.
I have a particular interest in supporting high functioning individuals who may appear to have it all together but feel stuck, exhausted, or disconnected beneath the surface. I also work deeply with those navigating the profound identity shifts that come with parenthood or those processing the long term impact of trauma. I bring a blend of clinical depth and warm, human connection to our work; I do not advocate for any process I haven't personally experienced and believe in.
My practice is near-affirmative and LGBTQIA+ inclusive. I welcome the whole you, providing a space where you don't have to mask or perform to be understood.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
