About me and my therapy practice

Many people come to me because they feel stuck. 

You might have had therapy before, done lots of thinking, and understand your patterns but still find yourself repeating the same struggles.

I use ISTDP (Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy), a focused and supportive approach that helps you get to the heart of what’s holding you back. It’s about creating lasting change, not just managing symptoms, so you can start to feel more alive, connected, and confident in yourself.

We look at what might be keeping old patterns in place and work together to help you move through what’s been hard to face. As you begin to understand and process these deeper feelings, life often starts to feel lighter, clearer, and more open.

People often find that through this approach they have more space for closeness, more trust in themselves, and a stronger sense of freedom in how they live and relate to others.

Practice description

I work with people who want to go beyond surface-level understanding and make real, lasting change. You might already understand a lot about yourself or have had therapy before, but still find old patterns repeating or the same feelings returning.

My approach helps you get to the root of what’s happening underneath. We look at the deeper emotions, needs, and habits that quietly shape your life. This can mean working through long-standing anxiety, relationship struggles, or old ways of coping that once protected you but now hold you back.

The aim is to help you feel more connected, confident, and free to live the life you want, not just to understand things better, but to experience real change from the inside out.

I offer sessions online across the UK and Europe, and in person in Nottingham.

My first session

Many people I work with have already done a lot of thinking. They might have tried CBT, counselling, or read all the right books, but still feel stuck and unsure why things don’t change.

In our first session, we don’t just talk about the problems. We slow down and start to notice what’s really happening in the moment. This can include anxiety, habits that protect you from pain, or emotions that are hard to reach.

ISTDP is an active, emotion-focused therapy. Together, we explore not just what’s going wrong, but why it keeps happening and what might be unresolved underneath. As we work through these deeper feelings, new understanding and change can begin to take shape.

This first session is the start of a focused process that aims to help you feel more free, connected, and able to move forward. I offer sessions online and in person in Nottingham.

Availability

I currently have availability for online supervision sessions and offer flexible options across weekdays. I work on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, with both daytime and limited evening slots available.

I’m happy to discuss a regular time or work around changing schedules, depending on what suits you best. If you’re considering starting supervision with me, feel free to get in touch to explore options or ask any questions.

Should any planned breaks or time off be scheduled, I will give advance notice so we can plan accordingly.

About me and my therapy practice

I’m a psychotherapist and supervisor with full training backgrounds in both CBT and psychodynamic therapy, now specialising in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP). I provide supervision for therapists who want to work more dynamically and effectively, whatever their modality or stage of experience.

In my own training journey, discovering ISTDP was a turning point. It gave me practical tools to help clients achieve lasting change, and it continues to shape how I practise and supervise today.

My aim as a supervisor is to support you in developing confidence, clarity, and creativity in your clinical work. Supervision with me is a space to think through complex cases, refine your skills, and grow in your professional role, whether you’re new to supervision or already experienced.

Practice description

I offer clinical supervision with a focus on depth-oriented work and developing therapists’ confidence in handling complex clinical situations. I originally trained fully in both CBT and psychodynamic therapy before specialising in ISTDP, so I bring an understanding of different models and how they can be applied or integrated in practice.

My approach to supervision is collaborative, practical, and attuned to the challenges of therapeutic work. Whether you want to strengthen your technique, think through demanding cases, or reflect on your development as a practitioner, supervision provides a structured space to support your growth. I’m particularly interested in helping therapists refine their skills, gain clarity in their clinical decision-making, and build their own authentic way of working.

My first session

In our first supervision session, the focus is on understanding your practice, your current challenges, and what you want to gain from supervision. This initial meeting is charged at the standard rate and gives you the chance to experience my approach and see whether it feels like the right fit for your needs.

We’ll explore the areas you’d like support with, such as developing your skills, working through complex client presentations, or reflecting on your professional growth. If you’re new to ISTDP, we can also think together about how this approach might be helpful, but supervision is always tailored to your background, goals, and level of experience.
