Are you feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges? Do stress or anxiety seem to hold you back? It's okay to seek help. I am experienced in finding ways to support you as you tackle life’s hardships. I’m also able to facilitate your self development. As a psychotherapist and counsellor based in Chelmsford, Essex, I specialise in understanding and addressing the issues that have led you to seek counselling or psychotherapy. I’m humbled by the bravery I witness in clients and feel honoured to do this work with you.
I am a fully accredited member of the United Kingdom Register of Counsellors/Psychotherapists. UKCP accreditation is only awarded to experienced psychotherapists and counsellors who have fulfilled all the relevant criteria, which includes undertaking their own personal therapy. I adhere to the UKCP ethical framework, so you can be confident that I abide by a strict code of confidentiality, that I undertake regular ongoing training and that I am appropriately supervised.
I offer an integrative approach that incorporates humanistic theories, psychodynamic thinking, relational psychoanalytic concepts, transpersonal ideas, yoga techniques and philosophy, walk and talk therapy, ACT and EMDR.
My therapy offering is for individual adolescents and adults. Each person’s healing journey is unique, whether you need short-term guidance or are looking for long-term support in navigating life's complexities. I also offer clinical supervision for counsellors and psychotherapists.
