My practice

I provide an open and understanding environment to talk about and make sense of your problems.

I work from a Transactional Analysis approach, which is a framework used to look at a persons thoughts, feelings and behaviours, where these might have developed from and give the possibility of having more freedom over them moving forward.

I look to encourage meaning over giving answers and providing solutions.

What is therapy?

Therapy is a unique experience for everyone. In my own practice I work to form a professional relationship with my clients, creating a safe space for open exploration of their problems.

Why go to therapy?

There are many different reasons why someone might consider therapy. I have listed a few of the most common here:

  • Struggling with feelings of anxiety and depression

  • Feeling 'stuck' or 'lost' in life

  • Relationship problems (romantic, family and friends)

  • Feeling different in the world or considering yourself ‘neurodivergent’

  • Simply feeling as though something is missing

  • A curiosity to learn more about yourself

Psychotherapy can be useful for anything that is important to you and help a person better understand themselves to lead a more fulfilling life.

About me

I’m passionate about bringing people together, having intuitive discussions and finding some humour in what we do.

I bring a range of diverse experiences into my work. I was a medical doctor and GP for over 10 years, competed as a runner at a national level and worked as a coffee barista.

I grew up on a working farm and love being outdoors and travelling, particularly surfing and cycling, along with music.

I’m a registered member of BACP, registered medical practitioner with the GMC, and in advance training in Integrative Psychotherapy.
