I am registered as a
psychotherapist through BACP in the UK and as an Art
Therapist with BAAT and HCPC. I am a
transformational life coach through Animas,
accredited by the International Coaching Foundation
and I am about to undertake the Positive
Intelligence training as an add-on. My experience
thus far is wide-ranging; I have worked with clients
as young as 5 and adults over 75 and in various
settings including schools, refugee camps,
therapeutic communities and the NHS. My clinical
practice has spanned both online as well as in
person.
About me and my therapy practice
Life sometimes throws us curve balls and I am here
to provide a listening ear and non-judgmental space.
Life's twists and turns can cause us to respond in
rote ways learned in early childhood. I work in a
psychodynamic way and I am a trained art therapist
so I also value creative responses to difficulty.
I passionately believe people can be empowered to
find their own answers to the challenges they face.
I value difference, integrity, connection and
finding your own path and I am not afraid to walk
through dark places and sit with discomfort. In a
non-judgmental accepting environment, we will work
together to transform pain into coping mechanisms
that help you live life in its fullness.
At this time I am conducting art therapy and talk
therapy over secure videoconference (or audio, if
you prefer). I do some in-person art psychotherapy
sessions in addition.
Practice description
I work psychodynamically predominantly, which simply
put means I recognise that our past relationships,
experiences and ways of thinking impact us in the
here and now.
However, I work in an eclectic, integrative way;
having undertaken further trainings focussing on
principles of schema therapy, Transactional Analysis
and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy and having
benefited from Supervisors whose training was
Jungian and in Family Systems, I integrate all my
learning and adapt to the client and their
presenting issues as needed. I would describe myself
as person-centred as I place high value on the
relationship itself and the importance of being
witnessed by an attuned other.
If you choose to do art therapy, I will encourage
you to use creative materials to make something to
express your feelings - this is not art class or
being judged aesthetically, but being free to be you
and use materials if words are not forthcoming. To
be seen and heard and met wherever you are
emotionally is a powerfully moving and
transformative experience for most adults and
children alike.
I am registered with the British Association for
Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) as a
psychotherapist and with the Health & Care
Professions Council and the British Association of
Art Psychotherapy as an Art Psychotherapist. I also
co-ordinate trauma trainings for BAAT, as well as
ensuring my continuing professional development is
kept up-to-date by undertaking trainings and reading
widely within my field.
My first session
- 15 minute free initial
online voice/video consultation
- I offer a quarter hour
chat for which there is no charge to see if I am
the right therapist for you or your child. It is
an opportunity also to ask any questions and see
how I may help
- If you take up therapy
with me, the first session would be a longer
consultation in which I complete an assessment.
This lasts longer than a regular session (up to
1.5h) and is a way of taking a history and
context of where the client is. This is charged
at a 1.5 rate. For young people, I carry out the
assessment with parents.
I work short-medium term
with clients, usually planning for 8-12 sessions of
50mins on a weekly basis, and creating an objective
for the piece of work together. I will work with you
to find a regular session time. There is no
obligation to commit to 8 sessions, however in my
experience working in blocks of 8-12 weeks creates
momentum which sustains change.
