I am an experienced psychotherapist, NLP master practitioner and clinical hypnotherapist. I also have a BA (Hons) in therapeutic integrative counselling and continue to train each year. Adding to my portfolio I trained to a Certificate level in CBT, Trauma and PTSD, including EMDR, and recently completed a Graduate Certificate in Psychology at the University of Winchester, and am planning further academic training towards a Doctorate.
I belong to the relevant Professional Bodies and am registered with the BACP as a therapist and am accredited with the National Counselling Society.
As I work with a varied age group I hold a current DBS certificate and work with children, adults, couples and families.
I specialise in the structures and patterns of anxiety and have a specific and active interest in this field, keeping myself up to date with the latest research including neuroscience and cognitive and behavioural psychotherapies. This information provides me with a continual and healthy approach to providing effective and modern therapeutic treatments for all my clients to help create the change and results you maybe looking for. I also specialise in Trauma, where I have vast knowledge and client experience of working within this particular field, and I provided Trauma consultancy work for a blue light emergency service. I work with the effects of combat, acute stress and ptsd, including violent crime, rape and childhood sexual abuse. Much of my learning and knowledge comes from working as a volunteer for nearly 10 years in an agency that provided therapy and crisis lines for clients who had or were experiencing domestic violence and sexual abuse.

It is important to create a sound therapeutic relationship, where clients are able to feel safe to be able to discuss the issues that they are experiencing. I work in a very proactive way to create the changes my clients are wanting to achieve. With the various therapies I provide, I select with my client the most appropriate interventions and we agree a treatment plan. I also include psychoeducational material and empower all my clients by including effective strategies that clients are able to practice with during the week.
