Hello and a warm welcome to you.
Whether you're facing challenges in your relationships, burdened by past traumas, battling an addiction, feeling confused, lost or a sense of stuckness - You don't need to navigate these struggles alone.
Amidst lifes hardships, it's natural to grapple with feelings of loneliness, anxiety, depression, or hopelessness. Yet within each of us resides innate wisdom, creativity, and the inner resources necessary to lead fulfilling and wholesome lives.
About me and my practice
As a BACP registered Integrative Counsellor, my purpose is to help you make sense of your emotional and relational experiences, unravel the patterns you may find repeatedly occurring in your life, and to develop a profound understanding of yourself so that you may live purposefully and in alignment with your true values.
Through enhancing your self-awareness and unlocking your inner resources, I aim to empower you to embody your inherent potential, invigorating you to navigate through life's inevitable challenges with greater freedom and agency.
How I Work:
Deciding to seek therapy is a courageous step demonstrating your commitment to personal growth and psychological well-being. Nevertheless, I understand it can feel unnerving.
My primary dedication is to create a safe and compassionate environment where you can freely delve into your emotions, thoughts, and experiences without fear of judgement. Building an authentic relationship with you is my priority and is ultimately the catalyst for growth and healing.
As an integrative therapist, I draw upon a diverse range of psychotherapeutic modalities (predominantly Pyschodynamic and Humanistic) whilst adopting a relational, culturally-sensitive and creative approach. Essentially, this means I tailor my methods to suit your unique needs and personal goals.
Our work together will provide you the opportunity to identify and explore the root causes of your emotional triggers. Together, we will navigate the layers of conditioning, societal expectations, and past experiences that have influenced your self-perception and worldview.
You'll develop effective coping strategies to regulate emotions, manage stress and maintain a greater sense of balance and resilience in your life.
Experience
Originally trained as a chartered physiotherapist, I recognise the reciprocal relationship between physical health and mental wellbeing. This understanding of the interconnectedness between mind and body, informs and complements my counselling practice. I embrace a holistic approach by integrating somatic practices, such as mindfulness, breathwork and movement to help you connect with your body and regulate your nervous system.
Through my active engagement with numerous charitable organisations, the National Health Service (NHS), and the corporate sector, I have garnered substantial expertise in delivering emotional and mental health support to individuals from diverse backgrounds.
Beyond my private practice, I actively collaborate with trainee counsellors as a mentor, including facilitating monthly student forums.
Drawing from my professional training, background, and enriched life experiences, I possess a versatile skill set and a wealth of expertise to effectively address a broad spectrum of client presentations.
