My Approach

I draw on a range of therapeutic modalities, including CBT, Integrative, and Existential approaches, to best suit the individual needs of each client. My way of working is collaborative, practical, and grounded in building a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship. I typically offer time-limited work, with an initial contract of up to 8 sessions, providing a focused space to explore specific issues and goals. This structure allows us to work effectively within a clear timeframe, while still allowing flexibility depending on your needs.

About Me

I am a UKCP-registered psychotherapist with 18 years of experience supporting individuals through a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges. I offer a warm, thoughtful, and grounded approach, tailored to each client’s unique needs. My practice is based in Richmond and Waterloo, where I work exclusively face to face. I provide a confidential, non-judgmental space to explore difficult feelings, relationships, and life transitions. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, depression, trauma, or simply wish to better understand yourself, I’m here to help you make sense of your experience and move towards lasting change.

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.

I help clients understand the roots of their anxiety and develop practical tools to manage it. Through a supportive, structured approach, we explore thoughts, behaviours, and patterns, working together to reduce distress and build greater emotional resilience and confidence.
I have a special interest in supporting individuals living with vestibular issues, such as dizziness and vertigo. These symptoms can be distressing and isolating. I help clients build confidence, manage anxiety, and develop coping strategies to navigate daily life with greater ease, stability, and emotional wellbeing.
I work with depression by creating a safe space to explore difficult feelings, thoughts, and underlying causes. Using a blend of therapeutic approaches, I support clients in reconnecting with themselves, fostering hope, and developing strategies to move towards meaningful change.
I support clients in exploring patterns in their relationships, both past and present, to gain insight and improve communication, boundaries, and emotional connection. My approach helps individuals understand themselves better and build healthier, more fulfilling relationships with others - or to take a decision to move on.
I help clients identify sources of stress and understand how it affects their thoughts, emotions, and body. Together, we develop practical coping strategies and build emotional resilience. My approach supports clients in creating healthier routines, improving balance, and managing stress more effectively in daily life.
