I’ve been working in this field since the late 1990s, when I began as a volunteer, going on to complete my Gestalt psychotherapy qualification in 2010.
Overcoming my own life challenges and existential questions motivated me to commit to my own personal development — a process that, of course, never really ends.
I learned to listen attentively to what is said (and often not said.)
I’ve achieved this by integrating the regular practice of mindfulness and meditation into my personal life and my work.
In my childhood and early adulthood, I often felt deeply misunderstood and wondered what was wrong with me.
I have a particular interest in early developmental trauma and how this plays an important part in psychological health.
Gestalt principles have become a way of life for me.
They are about embracing change as a natural process from where you are right now.
I love the compassionate, organic, and common sense approach to validating our emotions and our human need for connection to self, others and the world.
Working holistically (body, mind & spirit) and with integrity and intuition, I focus on the present whilst acknowledging your unique (past and current) circumstances.
