About me
Over the last 10 years, I have developed my expertise in counseling and psychotherapy through rigorous academic research and professional work experience across different sectors. My training as a counsellor has culminated in the award of an MA in counseling and psychotherapy. I am an experienced psychotherapist and mental health crisis services manager with expertise in face-to-face and helpline/online counseling for individuals and groups.
My professional expertise lies in supporting individuals dealing with a range of complex mental health issues, including perinatal mental health, depression, past abuse, trauma, stress, anxiety, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, and cultural & relational issues. My training is integrative and my approach combines a person-centered core with knowledge of trauma-informed approaches and an understanding of attachment theories, keeping the therapeutic relationship central to the process. I am also experienced in clinical leadership in mental health crisis services and peer/survivor-led mental health services. I currently also work as a clinical supervisor and development coach for volunteers and as a lecturer in counseling and psychology.
I have provided counseling support on pregnancy, miscarriage, and terminations to women and families which has been an area of focus for me. I have also used play therapy for children under the age of 15 to improve emotional well-being through early interventions. A big part of my focus has been culturally appropriate therapy and BAME-related therapy.

Approach
I am an eclectic Integrative Psychotherapist.
Using this approach means I use parts from different schools of thought in psychotherapy and adjust them to the needs of the individual in front of me.
My base is humanistic, and one of the most important elements in therapy is the relationship with your therapist., so I pay massive attention to creating a positive environment for my clients.
