About Therapy

Space for: Reflection + Self-Awareness + Understanding + Clarity + New Ways of  Thinking + Emotional Resilience + Self-Compassion + Authenticity

​

Sometimes, we get caught up in our daily lives, relying on auto-pilot, pushing aside our worries and concerns and not allowing space to process our emotions.

You may be facing difficulties in life that are just too big to manage on your own or  you may be feeling stuck, anxious or disconnected on the inside. My approach is not about quick fixes, it’s about understanding root causes shaping your emotions and relationships. We are the sum of all that we have experienced and sometimes events in our past leave their emotional imprint on our present circumstances. 

Through a safe reflective space, we will spend time exploring your thoughts, feelings and behaviour patterns, helping you develop a stronger sense of self, healthier relationships and emotional resilience.I strongly believe that the client-therapist relationship plays an integral part in the therapeutic process allowing you to feel seen, heard, understood and accepted.

My counselling approach is integrative drawing from theories that include, person centred, gestalt, existential and solution focused therapy with a primary focus in working from a psychodynamic perspective​ and attachment theory. I also give space to clients who wish to reflect on their faith and spirituality.  

About Me

I am a professionally qualified counsellor and psychotherapist based in Weybridge, near Hersham, Walton-on-Thames, Addlestone and Woking. I offer a warm, caring and confidential space for meaningful change.

Guiding you to develop a deeper understanding of how your past experiences may shape your current circumstances. I work integratively which requires using a range of proven therapy techniques to address your unique needs and circumstances.

Personal beliefs supporting the way I work include the understanding that the desire of most human beings is for relational connection and when this is missing, emotional disturbances may occur relating to attachment issues impacting on how we relate with ourselves and others. I am passionate about the importance of mental health and a strong advocate for counselling and psychotherapy as a pathway to health and healing.

I practice online from my home and work weekdays from Monday to Friday. I am a registered member of the professional body, British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and adhere to their code of ethics. I am fully insured, registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) and have monthly supervision for my work in accordance with best practice.

Personal and professional development training have equipped me to understand the transient nature of life and its complexities, equipping me to help clients through their struggles which include helping individuals struggling with low self-esteem or relationship difficulties, professionals experiencing high levels of anxiety, imposter syndrome or burnout as well as entrepreneurs faced with setbacks running their businesses and struggling with self-doubt.
