I’ve been working holistically for over twenty years, creating a space for clients to heal from their childhood and other traumas. As an integrative psychotherapist, I pay attention to the beliefs, feelings and somatic experiences that may come up for the client. Together we seek to uncover the source of suffering which then allows for the felt experience in the past to be processed compassionately in the present.

​

In considering the importance of the whole person, I reference humanistic, psychodynamic and body psychotherapy approaches. I am also a qualified Compassionate Inquiry Practitioner, a trauma-informed therapeutic approach developed by Gabor Maté. By means of gentle inquiry, the aim of this approach is to foster the release of trauma and suppressed emotions held in the body.

​

There are times in life when we need to be in a space that is free of judgement and external constraints, just as we need another to witness our process. For me, to watch as a client finds the courage and resilience to heal is a great honour; it remains a deeply humbling experience to walk alongside another as they come ever closer to living a life truer to themselves and their needs.

​

I am committed to the practice of discussing my work in regular supervision with a senior practitioner who follows the same code of professional practice as myself.
