ABOUT ME

​I completed my psychotherapy training at the Metanoia Institute, qualifying as a Certified & Clinical Transactional Analyst & Psychotherapist at MSc level, and I currently hold the title of Provisional Trainer & Supervisor in Transactional Analysis (PTSTA (P)). As an integrative practitioner, I also tend to draw on various psycho-therapeutic models to support an individualised approach to therapy dependent on expectation and need.  I see my self as a relational practitioner, whereby I am very present in the relationships I work within.

​I have worked in a number of clinical settings including the NHS, as well as for various charitable organisations, drug & alcohol services, homeless and mental health services, which has widened my personal & clinical knowledge of working with more marginalised groups in society whereby 'difference' has hindered the life experience of individuals, and has led to a range of trauma & personal crisis.

In light of my clinical experience, I aim to foster an environment whereby 'all' are included regardless of race, gender identity, sexuality, class, age, and disability, and I apply an intersectional lens to my work, always being mindful of the social, cultural, and political conditions on lived experience.

​

I have experience working with, but not limited to, a range of mental health conditions and diagnosis, themes around difference, identity, & diversity, substance & alcohol use (including chemsex engagement), LGBT+ themes, domestic violence, eating disorders, relationship issues, childhood trauma, issues relating to sex & libido, as well as themes that may arise at various existential stages of life.

​

I see myself as a reflective practitioner, and I endeavour to engage in continuous professional development to support my own personal and professional growth. 

Please note that I am Clinically Supervised in all the Clinical work I undertake.
