About me and my therapy practice

I am an experienced, qualified counsellor and psychotherapist working in Wantage, Oxfordshire. I have worked for a number of years with both charitable organisations as well as private practice. I am an integrative psychotherapist, which means I use a range of modalities and techniques to help clients. I believe we are all individuals and work through problems differently, so I tailor my therapy to work with the client and respect that individuality.

Whether you want to explore a specific issue, want support during a difficult period in your life, or want to explore your past experiences more in-depth, I provide both short-term and long-term therapy to suit your needs. I also offer relationship therapy, which includes family dynamics as well as intimate relationships.

I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment in which we can explore the basis of any problems or anxieties which may be getting in the way of living a happy and fulfilling life.

Practice description

Our initial session will be to explore what has brought you to therapy and how we could work together to meet your needs. I offer weekly sessions as this is important in the continuity of the work. Sessions usually last 50 minutes. I offer a variety of ways of working which can sometimes take longer. If needed, longer sessions can be arranged with prior notice. I offer both individual therapy and relationship counselling. I also offer the option of walking therapy.

About me and my therapy practice

I offer an integrative supervision to trainees and qualified counsellors. I have 11 years experience in working with adolescents, adults and couples. I trained as an integrative psychotherapist with the Bridge Pastoral Foundation during which time I also completed training as a Bereavement counsellor with Cruise. I trained with Riverside Counselling Service to work with adolescents (12 and over) and with Mercure Counselling and Training alliance in relationship therapy. 

As a supervisor I feel it's important to create a healthy, open, safe environment in which all aspects of client work can be thought about. My approach with trainees is to help them discover who they are as therapist and help them develop their own style of working.
