About

My therapeutic style is supportive, empowering and responsive. I offer a safe, non-judgemental and accepting space. 

I have been in private practice for over 35 years and have learned to listen, really listen to my clients. With each client I adjust my approach to meet their needs and serve them on their journey towards healing and reaching their full potential. Through a collaborative process I not only treat the problem, but also address the underlying cause to prevent any recurrence. I am committed to providing each client with tailored and achievable strategies to encourage meaningful and insightful therapeutic results. 

My expertise is working with adults, couples and families, who present with problems that are both complex and long-term through to more short-term, specific or situational.  I have skills in working at levels of depth where a problem is deep seated, and multi-layered, such as challenging childhood experiences, past trauma and abuse. 

I utilise a wide range of therapeutic approaches including cognitive behavioural therapy, schema therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness, gestalt therapy, emotion focussed therapy, solution-focussed and narrative therapy through to a more psychodynamic approach utilising Jungian techniques. Where appropriate, I incorporate hypnosis to seek a deeper understanding of the issues as well as to enhance and reinforce the therapeutic gains.
