SPECIALISMS:
LGBT+, anxiety, low mood, trauma, OCD, loss, loneliness, spirituality, ADHD.
THERAPEUTIC APPROACH
Integrative: humanistic, gestalt, transpersonal, psychodynamic
Are you dealing with a single life event or issues / trauma from earlier in your life? Are these affecting your emotional health? The counselling I offer allows us to make sense of what has happened to you, thus giving rise to greater self-awareness and positive change, plus the ability to resolve present or past issues. My experience is largely within, but not exclusive to, the LGBT+ community.
I am currently actively engaged in funded research into the causes and treatment of trauma, with some emphasis on older adults.
I have been teaching Buddhist meditation and mindfulness practices for over 15 years and bring these skills to my counselling practice.

PERSONAL STATEMENT:
Who do you believe you are? Our past experience, our memories and stories seem to define us and the way we behave. But sometimes unhelpful beliefs that we are not even aware of can hold us back and affect the present. We get the world we think we see.
I will help you tell your authentic story, exploring dreams, childhood memories, and fantasies. Through this process you gain self-understanding, the opportunity to update beliefs that no longer serve you, and change the way you behave in the world.
The work is open-ended. We will work together as long as needed. I encourage clients to work face to face if possible, but am happy to work online.
Sessions are 50 minutes, on a sliding scale from £60 - £75.
I offer a free 30 minute initial session to assess the nature and scope of the work.
