Integrative Psychotherapist, Trauma Specialist & Clinical Supervisor
"Beyond the words we find difficult to speak, there is a space where healing begins. My practice is dedicated to providing that space—one of profound empathy, radical kindness, and clinical safety."
With many years of post-graduate experience, I am a highly qualified Psychotherapist and Counsellor specializing in the complex intersections of trauma, identity, and early childhood development. My work is rooted in the belief that no matter how fragmented a person’s experience may feel, there is always a path back to wholeness through a compassionate, therapeutic relationship.
Expertise in Trauma & Recovery
My advanced clinical training focuses on supporting survivors of rape and sexual trauma, as well as those navigating the long-term impact of childhood emotional and sexual abuse. I have extensive experience working with dissociative disorders (including DID), helping clients safely explore and process experiences that often feel beyond reach.
I utilize evidence-based, trauma-informed modalities to ensure safety and stabilization, including:
-
Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET): To help weave difficult memories into a coherent and reclaimed life story.
-
Energy Focused Therapy (EFT): To address the somatic and energetic imprints of trauma.
-
Attachment-Informed Care: To repair the foundational bonds that influence how we relate to ourselves and others.
Early Childhood & Youth (Ages 4+)
I am deeply passionate about early intervention and hold a Level 6 Certificate in Counselling Children and Young People. I understand that for a child, play is their first language and their most vital tool for healing. By integrating Play Therapy and Sand Tray Therapy, I provide a creative sanctuary where young children can externalize their inner worlds, process grief, and build resilience without the pressure of "adult" conversation.
An Integrative Approach
My practice is truly integrative, meaning I draw from a wide-ranging toolkit to meet your specific needs.
Clinical Supervision
As a Level 6 qualified Clinical Supervisor, I am dedicated to the growth of the profession. I provide a supportive, reflective space for other practitioners to explore their clinical work, ensuring the highest standards of care and ethical practice.
I have also completed an online course on How to Provide Counselling online: a coronavirus primer. The course was jointly developed by the Open University and the BACP as a response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
I am a current registered Member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy and I subscribe to the BACP code of ethics for my professional practice. I also maintain ongoing professional training. I am also registered with The Counselling Directory covering Farnham and surrounding areas and the ICO Data Protection Register.
