About me and my therapy practice

I offer a warm, authentic, and compassionate therapeutic relationship. With the ultimate goal of facilitating a return to balance and alignment. I partner with the client to pattern new, healthier ways of moving through the world and being in relationship with self and others. I work collaboratively with each individual and tailor my approach to suit each person's specific requirements.

I work in an integrative way, incorporating approaches and theoretical models in psychotherapy including Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, Flash Technique and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR).


Practice description

I completed a PgCert in Counselling and Psychotherapy at the University of Edinburgh in 2015, PgDip in Counselling and  Psychotherapy at Strathclyde University in 2018 and also trained in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) in 2021.

I work as a counsellor for a confidential recovery and counselling service for adults affected by use and Stepping Stones a service specialising in providing debrief, counselling and psychotherapy for all emergency personnel across the UK and online since 2018.

My work is deeply grounded in the ethics of care, respect, safety, and confidentiality, which is embedded within the code of ethics and conduct of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, (Â鶹ԭ´´).
