I’m an experienced BACP registered, psychotherapeutic counsellor (since 2018), coach and teacher (QTS). I am passionate about helping adults and children progress in life and make positive changes.

I worked as a qualified primary school teacher and senior leadership roles (Assistant Headteacher) since 2002, until becoming a therapist. I worked with children and families from very broad and diverse backgrounds. I have supported many children with social and emotional difficulties, anxiety, confidence, adverse childhood traumas and neurodiversity. Supporting and working alongside children and families with these issues was one of the favourite parts of my job.

Now with my qualification as a psychotherapeutic counsellor I love supporting adults, children and businesses with well-being. This is through individual sessions, group work and workshops with clients based around the globe.

I am an integrative therapist and I am trained to use a wide range of different modalities including:

• Psychosynthesis

• CBT

• Gestalt

• Art

• Mindfulness

• Coaching

All my clients are different so I work in different ways to suit each individual client.

I work with a very wide range of issues and have particular experience with:

• Women and men’s mental health

• Anxiety

• Depression

• Neurodiversity

• Stress

• Chronic health conditions

• Trauma

• Life goals or transitions

• Relationship and dating issues

• Children’s emotional wellbeing

• Challenges of modern parenting

My approach is person-centred, warm, and non-judgemental. I believe that although the past can be an important part of moving forward in therapy, looking at the present and future is just as important. For some people a more coaching style looking at the present and future is the main focus.

I believe modern life can be overwhelming. Using neuroscience, education, and coaching tools, can help clients create positive and meaningful change.
