My Approach

I create a safe space to:
- Reconnect to spirit, joy, peace, contentment, your authentic soul nature, qualities, potential and purpose
- Process past experiences and heal trauma
- Build self-knowledge, self-compassion, self-acceptance and self-esteem
- Navigate life’s challenges with mindfulness, compassion
- Foster positive relationships, self-care and holistic wellbeing
- Work towards future goals
- Access wisdom through creativity (e.g. visualisations, dreamwork, creative imagination, artwork, sand trays, breath and body work)
- Achieve healthy balance in mind, heart, body and spirit

‘Everyone is a house with four rooms, a physical, a mental, an emotional, and a spiritual. Most of us tend to live in one room most of the time but unless we go into every room every day, even if only to keep it aired, we are not a complete person.’ Rumer Godden

WHAT IS INTEGRATIVE TRANSPERSONAL PSYCHOTHERAPY?

Integrative means that I have been trained in many of the predominant therapeutic approaches - including person-centred, transpersonal, psychoanalytic, CBT, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis and existential modalities. I apply a holistic blend of these approaches according to each client’s evolving needs and goals.
Transpersonal psychotherapy blends spirituality and higher states of consciousness with modern psychology.  It encourages growth and connection beyond the individual sense of self to the collective wisdom, deeper meaning and transcendent aspects of the spiritual realm.

About Me

I am an integrative transpersonal psychotherapist offering psychotherapy and counselling to adult individuals online, in person in Manchester City Centre, Chorlton-cum-Hardy and Saddleworth, plus ecotherapy/walk and talk therapy in nature.

I offer soul-centred therapy to support adult individuals to come into compassionate relationship with their true self, qualities and purpose, access inner wisdom, navigate life's challenges, heal past traumas, work towards goals, positive relationships, balance and wellness. I am trauma-informed and work in a holistic manner with mindfulness and compassion at the heart of my work. I work with clients at depth on an open-ended basis and I also offer short-term counselling. I also offer group therapeutic workshops to explore deep themes and invite awareness, growth and healing.

I enjoy working creatively (e.g. dreamwork, visualisation, active imagination, sand play, body and breath work) to facilitate clients accessing and integrating wisdom beyond the cognitive realm.
