About Me

I am a Transactional Analysis Psychotherapist specialising in relational TA, offering confidential psychotherapy and counselling to adults. I practice face-to-face from two highly accessible hubs: a quiet clinical space on The Drive in Hove (BN3) located just a short walk from Hove Town Hall and on Ship Street in Brighton’s historic Lanes (BN1), as well as providing secure online therapy nationwide.

I am an approved, recognised provider for major private healthcare insurance companies, including AXA Health, Aviva, Allianz, and WPA, alongside welcoming self-funding clients.

My practice focuses on several core areas of clinical experience:

Bereavement and Complex Grief: Anchored by my professional background with Cruse Bereavement Support, I offer dedicated care for those navigating complex grief, prolonged or sudden loss, anticipatory grief, and the profound anxiety, loneliness, or relationship strains that accompany bereavement.

Oncology and the Impact of Cancer: Drawing on my specialised work with Macmillan Cancer Support, I support individuals through the deep emotional toll of a cancer diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. This includes managing terminal illness, fear of recurrence, health anxiety, and shifts in identity.

ADHD and Neurodivergence: I work closely with ADHD, autistic, and neurodivergent adults, particularly those exploring their neurodivergence or navigating a late-in-life diagnosis. I provide a collaborative space to process masking, sensory overload, ADHD burnout, and the rewriting of life patterns.

Gender Identity and Transition: Across four years as a university therapist and private practitioner, I have extensive experience supporting individuals at all stages of their gender transition journeys, as well as those safely exploring or questioning their gender identity, sexuality, and sense of self.

Anxiety, Relationships, and Self-Esteem: I help adults unravel complex relational patterns, build self-compassion, and manage chronic anxiety.

If you are funding your treatment through a private healthcare policy, please include your membership number and claim authorisation code when making your initial enquiry.

My Approach

My work is grounded in Transactional Analysis (TA), a collaborative approach that explores how we think, feel, and behave, and how patterns from our past can continue to influence our lives today.

At the core of my practice is the belief that everyone has inherent worth and the capacity for growth and positive change. Together, we will explore your “Life Script,” the unconscious blueprints and survival strategies formed in early life that may now be causing patterns of anxiety, restriction, or distress in your adult world. Bringing these hidden patterns into conscious awareness offers the opportunity to rewrite your story and discover more liberating choices for your life ahead.

I work alongside you with warmth, transparency, and equality, providing a structured and supportive environment to explore anxiety, relationships, grief, identity, neurodivergence, and the experiences or patterns that may be affecting your life today.
