I work with people on their perspectives of the issues, and to understand the impact and how to share these things. My approach is to work at a pace and depth that is agreed together, and to review this. I aim to be clear and deal with people kindly and respectfully. I focus on ways to help people share openly and communicate what is important and how this impacts. My approach is based on the stories we tell about ourselves and finding solutions. people often meet me who are in conflict or anxious, feeling very low about themselves or trying to make sense of things that have happened.
I am a qualified family therapist with NHS and voluntary organisation experience of working with children and young people and their carers as well as couples My values are to be respectful and inclusive and to listen. I have worked in education and family and mediation and have worked with many different organisations involved in supporting people.
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.
