About me
I have always been curious about what motivates and inspires people through their lives. For a number of years I travelled and lived in different countries and cultures eventually settling back in the UK and a career in publishing and later photography. It was through my own experience of seeking therapy and learning to view myself and others through a more compassionate lens that inspired me to train as a counsellor and psychotherapist.
Alongside my private practice, I work for the charity Breast Cancer Now facilitating monthly support groups. My previous experience working in the charity sector includes providing one-to-one therapy, group therapy and workshops for people affected by complex, childhood and sexual trauma, as well as working with both survivors and perpetrators of domestic abuse. I have also supported people in a residential addiction rehabilitation setting.
I’m passionate about personal, professional and spiritual development and I sit alongside my clients with empathy, acceptance and respect, knowing we are both on a journey of self discovery to become more of who we truly are.
