My work is grounded in a systemic approach, recognising that our experiences are shaped by the relationships we have with ourselves, with others and within the wider systems in which we live. Alongside systemic psychotherapy, I draw on person-centred, narrative, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), solution-focused and coaching approaches, tailoring therapy to each person’s individual needs.
I have a particular interest in exploring relationships, family dynamics and neurodiversity, helping people gain greater understanding of themselves and those around them, and supporting meaningful and lasting change.
I have more than 20 years’ experience supporting people with a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties. My professional background includes many years working within specialist hospice and palliative care services, supporting people living with serious illness, their families and carers, and those who are bereaved.
I am an accredited UKCP Systemic Psychotherapist, a BACP Accredited Psychotherapist and a trained supervisor (Cascade). My practice has evolved to encompass a broad range of issues, with particular interests in relationships, neurodiversity, family dynamics, life transitions, and the impact these can have on emotional wellbeing.
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.
