Sparkling and Shining Stars

To be healthy is to be whole. I will support you to develop ​your own personal sense of wholeness.

Intuitive, holistic

A holistic approach to health and wellbeing strives for balance in all areas of life, and takes into account your unique history and context, allowing for more thorough and individualised care. I have studied extensively in a range of areas beyond psychotherapy, including: energy and nutrition; embodied practices; religious and spiritual teachings; tarot and astrology. I integrate a wide range of perspectives into my worldview.

I’m curious and compassionate by nature with a natural ability to acknowledge difficulties whilst holding the possibility of a more positive place. I’ll be with you in the tough spots and helping you to find ways through. I’ll be alongside you, offering you support and challenge to take the next step.

International career

Before retraining, I worked in strategic roles in large organisations, working internationally in the private sector, in government and in national charities, and continue to support organisations that make a meaningful impact on public life. I have a Post-Graduate Certificate in People and Organisation Development and a Master’s degree in Public Policy.


What these experiences taught me is how relationships are vital to our overall wellbeing and organisational performance, and that relationship skills can be developed. Developing self awareness is the first place to start.

Experienced

As a trainee psychotherapist, registered with the UK Council for Psychotherapy, I have worked with clients in community mental health services since 2020, including Mind and one of the largest psychotherapy research clinics in Europe.


I have experience working with clients:


  • experiencing depression, low energy, anxiety, suicidal thoughts
  • experiencing emotional and relationship difficulties, breakups and loneliness
  • struggling at work
  • navigating life shocks and unexpected crises
  • unravelling stories from their childhood and family background
  • working through trauma and abuse
  • processing losses and grief
  • with diagnosed mental health conditions including personality disorders, eating disorders and OCD


How I work

Gestalt therapy can be an exploratory, creative, liberating experience, that could lead to profound shifts in your life.

Body-Mind-Spirit

Our minds and bodies are connected, and developing the ability to become more sensitised to all parts of your experience can help you to tap into your own inner wisdom. A therapy session with me may include exploring what's going on in your body and how you hold emotional experiences. Tuning into your body’s whispers can lead to a greater understanding of yourself and what's needed. This process of self-discovery and integration can support you to feel and be more authentically you.

Creativity

Creativity can be a powerful way to deepen your understanding of your experience and to experiment with new ways of being. I will support you to try something new to loosen and liberate you from patterns that hold you back and support you to find more freedom, flexibility and spontaneity - opening up a world of new possibilities.

Responsibility

You are the agent of change. I believe that our thoughts, feelings and behaviours are there to meet a need and will encourage you to be interested in the broader story of your experience to get to the root of what's happening. I will be alongside you as you confront yourself and your circumstances with honesty and compassion, supporting you to recognise the ways in which you can take steps towards the changes you’re seeking.
