My Approach

I believe in the capacity for change and each person’s potential for growth. My core approach is Person-Centred, grounded in the belief that you are the expert in your own experience and that, given the right conditions, you can move towards greater self-understanding and fulfilment.

Alongside this, I work in an integrative way, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches to best support your individual needs. I recognise that no single approach fits every person or every situation, and I therefore tailor my work to you as an individual.

My continuous professional development has enabled me to incorporate elements from a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic theory, bereavement work, and attachment-based approaches. This allows me to support you in exploring both present challenges and past experiences, as well as gaining a deeper understanding of patterns within relationships and emotional responses.

I place particular importance on the therapeutic relationship, as I believe that a safe, trusting, and collaborative space is central to meaningful change. Within this space, you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly, develop self-compassion, and work towards greater clarity and wellbeing.

 “When someone really hears you without passing judgement on you, without trying to take responsibility for you, without trying to mould you, it feels damn good.”
— Carl Rogers, On Becoming a Person (1961)
