My Approach

My practice is grounded in systemic psychotherapy, which means I look beyond problems in isolation and consider the relationships, experiences, family patterns, social contexts and life events that shape them.

I believe that difficulties often make sense when viewed in the context of our relationships and life experiences. Together we explore these patterns, identify strengths and resources, and develop new ways of understanding and responding to challenges.

I integrate systemic, attachment-informed, trauma-informed and relational approaches to meet the individual needs of each person, couple, family or group. Whether we are working with a young person struggling with anxiety, a couple experiencing communication difficulties, or a family/ system navigating conflict or change, my aim is to help create meaningful and lasting change.

About Me

I am an AFSP and UKCP-accredited Family & Systemic Psychotherapist and MBACP-registered Counsellor with over 25 years' experience supporting children, young people, adults, couples, and families across NHS, local authority, and community settings.

Throughout my career, I have worked with people and systems facing a wide range of difficulties, including trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, family conflict, loss, life transitions, emotional distress and mental health difficulties. I have particular expertise in working with adolescents, families and systems experiencing complex or high-conflict situations.

I offer a warm, respectful and non-judgemental space where people can explore difficulties safely. I recognise that seeking support can feel daunting, and I work collaboratively with clients to understand their experiences, strengths and hopes for change.
