I have 30 years experience as a practitioner with individuals and groups:

• promoting health and creativity;

• working with those experiencing: stress, depression, mental health problems, loss / bereavement, relationship issues, attachment issues, identity issues, work-related problems, abuse, sexual issues, eating problems, trauma, vicarious stress / trauma, suicidal thoughts and feelings, self-harm, cancer care, palliative care etc.

• counselling / psychotherapy. This can include creative approaches and sandtray work when relevant.

I am a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy.

My theoretical orientation is pluralistic psychotherapy, which is integrative and grounded in relational and psychodynamic practice. My work is guided by trauma-informed care principles and common factors research. 

Another core strand of practice is ecotherapy / eARTherapy - promoting eco-creativity and a reciprocal caring relationship with the rest of nature.
