About me and my therapy practice
I offer a space to reconnect through the practice of attentive listening, and through the process of working things through, be that with talking, or with movement in the environment, or through the process of making by hand.
I am an experienced psychotherapist with a background in education and mentoring. With over twenty-five years experience of working with individuals and groups, I have worked in schools and colleges, with bereavement and sexual health charities, in women’s leadership training, and in private practice.
I hold an MA in Psychotherapy & Counselling (Existential) from Regents' University, London
PGCE from The Institute of Education, London
A BSc in Psychology, from The University of Bristol
I am currently apprenticing as a rites of passage guide.
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and a member of the Society for Existential Analysis.
