Welcome
I'm an accredited (UKCP registered) psychotherapist and counsellor. Based in London, St Leonards-on-Sea and online, I support individuals who are struggling with a range of psychological and emotional issues, and help people to uncover and embrace their most authentic and creative selves.
My background
I worked as an editor for major publishing houses for fifteen years. In that time, I commissioned and edited many critically acclaimed, award-winning and bestselling books.
After years in the industry, I realised that, as an editor, I was always searching for the heart of the story that was trying to be told. I looked for the potential in a character, not what was wrong with them. And I couldn’t help noticing where writers were holding themselves back on the page, wondering if it connected to something in their own psyche.
I subsequently trained for five years as a transpersonal integrative psychotherapist (CCPE, London) in order to help people work through the stories of their lives and uncover their truest selves, to safely reveal emotional truths, and reclaim the potential hiding beneath life's often difficult layers and traumas. I’ve since completed an additional two years of training in advanced psychotherapy, which focused more deeply on the transpersonal perspective in therapy.
Now my practice is primarily psychotherapy. I also bring insight from both therapy and editing into my unique offering of Writers’ Process Therapy. I offer a space that's compassionate, warm, safe, and holds my clients' potential at the heart of everything. In a world full of quick fixes, my approach aims to make deeper, long-term, more significant impact.
