About Me

I am a UKCP-accredited Humanistic Psychotherapist and EMDR-trained practitioner with a background in education and the music industry. My approach is based on the belief that our past, especially early experiences, shapes who we are today. Exploring these patterns can reveal why we feel stuck or repeat unhelpful behaviours in relationships or work. Humanistic therapy supports greater self-understanding and helps you make choices that align with what truly matters to you.

My belief is that we all have the resources needed to heal and make changes in our emotional well-being. I provide a down-to-earth counselling style for people who feel they need support to explore themselves or simply a need to be witnessed and heard. I offer the opportunity to talk openly in a trusted, confidential and safe environment.

I have my therapy dog, Paddy, in the room with me when I work with clients. He is a specially bred and trained therapy dog, hypoallergenic, and very gentle.

Special Interests

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.

Experiences of abuse can deeply affect our sense of self, safety, and trust in others. From a humanistic perspective, therapy offers a compassionate space to process these experiences, rebuild self-worth, and begin to restore a sense of empowerment and connection.
Anxiety often arises when we lose touch with our sense of safety or authenticity. From a humanistic perspective, therapy can help you explore the underlying causes of your anxiety, understand what it may be communicating, and reconnect with your capacity for calm, choice, and self-trust.
Depression can leave you feeling disconnected, hopeless, or stuck. From a humanistic perspective, therapy focuses on understanding your emotional world with empathy and curiosity, helping you reconnect with meaning, vitality, and a stronger sense of self.
I believe that every individual exists within a wider family system, and understanding these connections is key to meaningful change. Our relationships shape how we think, feel and respond to the world, and when one part of the system is stressed, the whole system can be affected. In our work together, I aim to explore these patterns with compassion, helping clients to recognise the roles they have taken on or been allocated, the dynamics that support you, and the ones that no longer serve you. By understanding your place within the family system, we can create space for healthier boundaries, stronger communication, and more fulfilling relationships.
