I am a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist with a first degree in psychology and a doctorate in existential psychotherapy. My academic research on crossdressing delves into issues such as sexuality, gender, identity and their connection with existential themes such as being, inauthenticity, lack of freedom and meaning. This is also reflected in my private practice, where I typically work with individuals at the intersection of social class, gender, sexuality, neurodiversity, race/ethnicity, faith, and disability, as well as the social, personal, and political contexts in which my clients find themselves.
I am quite open and easy to talk to, and I think I do well with people who are nervous about coming to therapy, who find it hard to open up or who have unusual issues that cause them shame. I prefer to work in a flexible, client-centred and integrative manner, drawing from different approaches, depending on your needs and preferences. I aim to create a space where you can feel safe, understood and listened to. Therapy begins by learning who and how you are, so that collaboratively we can shape ways in which you can grow, heal and change.
