About me and my therapy practice
I am a warm, sensitive, empathic and gently challenging psychotherapist. I offer therapy to individual adults, children and adolescents as well as parent coaching and Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy informed parent-child therapy.
I am an adult Integrative Body Psychotherapist and a Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist. I am an EMDR therapist for adults and children and am Internal Family Systems informed. I am also a DDP (Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy - attachment focussed family therapy) informed therapist. I have a Diploma in assessing and treating child trauma and dissociation.
I am qualified and experienced to work with a wide range of issues, including depression and anxiety, complex trauma and dissociation, gender identity/sexuality including transgender, chronic health issues, fatigue and pain, grief, loss, and issues related to being neurodivergent in a neurotypical world.
EMDR is a trauma therapy for adults and children. Internal Family Systems is a way of working with different parts of yourself to shift towards wise and loving self leadership instead of inner turmoil, fragmentation, conflict and stuckness. EMDR integrated with IFS together offers a powerful therapy that can shift your experience from coping strategies (whether healthy or problematic) to actually feeling different at a deep level, so you notice changes in your life flowing with ease.
As an integrative therapist, I tailor the therapy to you or your child as an individual. I commit to working at your own pace and in a way that suits you. Open, ongoing feedback on how you or your child are finding the therapy is an important part of the process.
My private practice is based at my peaceful home in Tadley, within easy reach of Basingstoke, Reading, Newbury, Winchester and surrounding areas of Hampshire and Berkshire.
