I am a fully qualified psychotherapist and trauma therapist, offering in-person sessions in Kent, Central London, and online across the UK. I specialise in trauma from events like childhood neglect, sexual and narcissistic abuse, domestic violence, serious accidents, illness, workplace trauma, and financial stress. I also support clients with depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, life transitions, disordered eating, and body image concerns. Additionally, I have experience working with high-net-worth individuals and understand their unique challenges.
Before transitioning to psychotherapy, I spent over a decade in investment banking. During a career break, I decided to pursue a more fulfilling path in holistic health and wellness. I now have nearly 20 years of training in therapies such as Reiki, eating disorder treatment, psychotherapy, trauma therapy, and EMDR.
In therapy, I take a trauma-informed approach, asking, “What happened to you?” rather than, “What’s wrong with you?” I work holistically, integrating mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual elements to address the whole person. My aim is to help my clients process past experiences, build resilience, and make positive changes in behaviour, thought patterns, and relationships.
I provide a safe, supportive space for clients to understand and overcome their experiences, fostering empowerment so they can take control of their life. I guide clients in creating the life they want, helping them align their decisions with their values and goals.
I hold public liability and indemnity insurance, an Enhanced DBS certificate, and practice under the ethical framework of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Due to the complex nature of the issues that clients bring to counselling sessions, I am committed to continually improving my knowledge and skills through further educational training and CPD.
