A little blurb about me...

---

I am an integrative relational psychotherapist, which means that I use a variety of approaches and methods to get the best possible understanding for your needs. I believe that the relationship between therapist and client is the principal factor in therapy, and I aim to create a warm, trusting, and supportive environment for you to explore your issues and goals. 

Also, as a person-centred therapist, I respect your autonomy and agency as a unique human being. I do not impose my views or solutions on you, but I help you to find your own inner resources and wisdom. I listen to you with empathy and curiosity, and I offer you feedback and guidance when needed. 

I came to counselling later in life, after running my own successful business in the hospitality and events industry for many years in an effort to prove my self-worth. I have a lot of experience in dealing with different people and situations, and I understand the pressures and challenges of working in a demanding and competitive field. I have also faced my own struggles with complicated family issues growing up, identity and self worth. These experiences have shaped me as a person and as a therapist, and they help me to connect with a diverse range of clients. 

I am BAPC registered and abide by their ethical framework.
