A Little About Me
My Practice
I believe every story is unique, so when it comes to therapy, I don’t believe one size fits all. This is why I chose to be trained in Integrative Psychotherapy.
I work relationally and draw on several therapeutic approaches such as Psychodynamic, Attachment-based, Existential, Gestalt, Humanistic, Body Psychotherapies and Spirituality, depending on your presenting issues. I like to approach therapy from a mind-body relationship, in order to honour every aspect of who you are.
As children, we were raised with a set of standards and beliefs, as well as patterns of behaviour that we have taken and made our own, depending on our environment. Significant relationships, or the lack of, throughout life, can impact our core sense of who we are. What patterns have you followed so far? Perhaps these patterns have served you well in the past, in order to survive but they have become restrictive in your adult life. We can work through some of these patterns together and in working relationally, we can find a path to healing and growth.
What I'm Like
I view our relationship as the most important aspect of our work together and I believe bringing my authentic self to the session is of utmost importance, I owe that to my clients. In working authentically and with a great deal of empathy, I also challenge some of the patterns of behaviour and thought processes that you bring to our sessions, as I feel this paves the way for growth and healing.
My approach is informal, I also strongly believe that being in this profession, we are in a privileged position to support someone’s journey. It is therefore really crucial that the therapist has taken an internal journey alongside a therapist themselves.
I cannot ask my clients to search for truths within themselves if I am not willing to do so myself. I view relating with others as central to our sense of self and our inner understanding is highly influential in how effective we are. The therapeutic process and the developing relationship between you as the client and I as the therapist offers a good insight into your internal world and ways of relating to yourself and others.
What Can You Expect From My Sessions
My sessions are generally open, honest and flexible, I leave it to you to bring anything that feels appropriate to the space, but I also intervene when it feels right. A session with me allows for a dialogue to take place and I will walk alongside you with whatever material you bring.
Some sessions may feel challenging as we work through some of your more painful memories and other sessions may have laughter, tears and anything else that you are holding within. Whatever we cover in our sessions together, I will be right there with you.
Fees

Cost
- 90 GBP/single session
Our first session
Once we have made arrangements to meet for an introductory session, we will have a chance to discuss what brings you to therapy. You will be able to share the concerns which have brought you to therapy and ask any questions. I will likely explain a bit about the way I work too. It is also a chance for you and I to assess whether we are the right fit for each other. If this is the case, we will arrange to meet for a minimum of one session per week in a regular time slot.
All introductory sessions will be held online, during which we can assess and discuss the follow up sessions and decide on online or in person work.
Starting therapy can bring up various feelings, and I ensure that the first session is as containing, and grounding as possible.
