Psychological Therapy
Sometimes we need time to share our story. I’m listening; you will be heard..
~ I provide a safe, professional space to explore links between life experiences and health
~ Support understanding with sensitivity while focusing on practical ways to move forward
~ Work at your pace, guided by a values-based therapeutic plan
~ Offer optional integration of practices to support both mind and body
~ Agree sessions collaboratively, with regular reviews and a planned, supportive ending
“I want therapy to be a joyful process”

Therapeutic Approach
My training and experience allows me to offer you an integrative approach. This is especially valuable where mental and physical health overlap, where trauma may be present, or where cultural background and diversity are important to consider.
Sessions would be held with empathy and insights from neuroscience particularly in relation to the evidence supporting mindfulness-based approaches, including Compassion Focused Therapy, Humanistic, and Somatic-mind-body practices. I offer accessible practices that support greater openness, resilience and well being across the biological, psychological, social and spiritual dimensions of health.
All in all, I want therapy to be a joyful process- without minimizing the struggles you may be experiencing.

Safe environment
Whether online or in person, you’ll be in a professional and safe environment. I’ll support you in understanding and making psychological links between life events and health with sensitivity, whilst holding focus on strategies to move forward and improve quality of life.
-

Values-based care plan
Together we’ll create a values-based care plan working at a pace that gives you time to feel comfy in discussing concerns with an integration of practices if you wish that lead to a variety of benefits in mind and body.

Transition when you're ready
Sessions are agreed with opportunity for reviews along with an ending so that engagement and transition from therapy is in collaboration.
Alongside talking therapy, you may choose to include:
gentle yoga practice & breath practice
mindful awareness
somatic and embodied approaches
grounding and nervous system regulation techniques
compassion-focused practices
These practices are always adapted to your needs and experience.
The aim is not performance or flexibility, but helping you reconnect with your body as a source of wisdom, safety and support.
