About me

While the people I work with have been labelled with the whole range of diagnoses used in adult mental health services, I largely understand these difficulties as consequences of and attempts to survive traumatic experiences. I work with individual needs drawing on different approaches, to allow us to make sense of your experiences, process emotions in relation to these and create new narratives. I aim to develop a collaborative relationship through setting goals, eliciting feedback throughout and respecting and validating your experience of your inner world and life. If you would like to set up an initial meeting to see if we might be a good fit or if you have any questions for me, please get in touch and we can take it from there.
