How I Work

I'm interested in you: your experience, your world and the ways they might have made you feel stuck or feel like something's not right. I believe that the world can separate us from our deepest form of support, which lies in our relationships to our self and others. I want to accompany you on a journey to recovering that support, by reconnecting with your self and your world.

I believe that we get stuck in life because of situations in which we are not met or responded to appropriately. I want to help create an atmosphere in which you feel responded to, and I will create that in collaboration with you.

 

Main areas of work

I have worked with a wide variety of experiences and suffering, including feeling stuck, isolated, worthless, depressed and anxious. I welcome and have experience working with a diverse range of identities and characteristics, including minoritised identities, gender identities and neurodiversity.

 

Training / Qualifications

I am a professionally qualified Psychotherapeutic Counsellor (Diploma in Gestalt Psychotherapeutic Counselling, from Metanoia Institute Faculty of Psychotherapy and Counselling). I also hold a PhD in philosophy from Pennsylvania State University.
