My Approach

My approach is integrative and relational, rooted in a humanistic respect for each of us as unique individuals and drawing on developmental influences from the past and how they impact us in the present. Being an integrative psychotherapist means I blend a variety of approaches to form a holistic model that I draw on to best meet your needs. The approaches I incorporate include psychodynamic, existential, Gestalt, object relations, trauma-informed, person-centred and cognitive-behavioural modalities of therapy.

I believe that being human means we are bound to struggle with the uncertainty and challenges of life but that we can find purpose in a deeper understanding of ourselves and through our connections with others and the natural world. I have a special interest in the healing qualities of animals and during my training undertook research into how contact with horses might comfort the bereaved. 

I offer a calm and private space with free parking in Market Bosworth. Alternatively, we can meet online. If you'd like to find out more about the way I work, please email me and we can arrange a free 20 minute introductory phone call.

About Me

I am an integrative psychotherapist with an MSc (4 years) in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy from the University of Warwick. I am experienced in seeing people with a wide range of difficulties, including bereavement, trauma, depression, anxiety,  low self-esteem, and relationship issues. I offer brief and long-term therapy, either in person in Market Bosworth or online anywhere in the UK.

I offer a compassionate and confidential space to talk freely without your struggles being minimised or judged. You might be going through a time of loss or change, or suffer from a persistent feeling of dissatisfaction. You might long for happiness and rewarding relationships but get stuck in unhelpful patterns of thinking, feeling or behaving. These can become so ingrained that they feel impossible to alter. By exploring together what lies behind these old habits it's possible to release their hold and achieve enduring change. 

We will work together to decide what you'd like to get out of therapy; you might have specific goals or simply want some relief from distress. I'll provide an understanding and reflective space and be led by you regarding the pace and content of your explorations. When it's appropriate, I'll use my skills to gently challenge you or suggest different ways of looking at things.

Through this therapeutic process you can come to better understand yourself and to respond to others with choice and spontaneity. This is the road to recapture, or perhaps experience for the first time, contentment and meaning in your life.
