My Approach

I take an integrative approach to counselling.

In essence, this means that rather than subscribing to one particular modality, I prefer to identify the most useful approach with each individual client. I draw on a range of evidence based approaches and am trained to work with my clients to identify the areas that they particularly want to address and to identify the approach that they feel would be the most useful and meaningful to them. At the core of my practice is a belief in the importance of the therapeutic relationship and I count among my primary influences attachment-based psychotherapy, relational psychodynamic psychotherapy and body psychotherapy. I offer short term and long term  therapy suited to your needs.

Specialist areas:

I have particular interests in working with bereavement, boarding school survivors, and addiction.
