  •  Certificate in Humanistic and Psychodynamic Counselling 
  •  Diploma in Gestalt Counselling 
  •  Post Graduate Diploma in Gestalt Therapy Theory

  •  MA in Advanced Clinical Practice at the Minster Centre and University of Middlesex
  • My dissertation focussed on the climate emergency as I feel this deeply affects the orientation of my work and life. My previous academic background was in music and I have worked with clients in the creative professions.

    Areas of Specialism

My clients have ranged in age from their twenties to their eighties. People come with some kind of ill-ease or distress. They might notice their mood is low or they feel unusually anxious. They may feel stuck or worried about something or have a particular problem to solve. This can include a relationship difficulty with a partner or a child or another family member or work colleague.  Times of transition or loss often call for radical change and adjustment and having someone to talk this through can be helpful.


Personal Approach
My core training is as a Gestalt  therapist.  I completed my psychotherapy training over several years whilst working as a counsellor.  I work relationally and am interested in how your experience and mine can be used to increase your awareness of yourself and to explore what is hidden or out of reach for you. I have an interest in attachment and how our experiences in early life are carried forward into adulthood and other relationships.  Most recently I have been engaging in development activities around Climate Psychology and what is commonly termed eco-anxiety. My professional development activities currently include work with grief pertaining not only to individual losses but also the magnitude of loss attached to climate and biodiversity. 


“ Hope locates itself in the premises that we don’t know what will happen and that in that spaciousness of uncertainty is room to act.”
