My Approach

I work with adult individuals and couples, both short and long term - face to face and online. I qualified as an Integrative Psychotherapist in 2007 but have since developed my practice to draw upon CBT and mindful-compassion ideas, as I believe they can be effective tools for change. I combine this with the deeper psychological work that involves looking at formative relationships made growing up.

About Me

I have extensive experience of working with depression and anxiety, and with anyone who has experienced a loss in pregnancy a struggle with their fertility. My book - The Brink of Being - talking about miscarriage was published by Virago Press in the UK and Penguin in the USA. It has also been published in Taiwan and Poland. I am writing another book about self-criticism for Virago Press.

I also offer supervision to therapists from many modalities, train individuals and organisations about pregnancy loss and examine communication skills for the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists.
