I am a qualified psychotherapist, hypnotherapist and reiki practitioner based in Manchester. I hold a Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling, a Certificate in Hypnotherapy and a Certificate in the Usui System of Natural Healing First Degree Reiki Healing.
I have experience working with a diverse range of clients, including young people aged between 6 and 11 years old and LGBTQIA+ adults.
My approach to psychotherapy is pluralistic, which means that I employ a combination of Psychodynamic, Humanistic (Person Centred) and CBT techniques to create a tailored treatment plan for each individual client. I aim to create a judgement free safe space, held with empathy, compassion and understanding to which you can bring your most authentic and vulnerable self. Within this space, we collaborate to create the potential for positive change and set you on a healing path of hope and happiness.

When was the last time you really took the time to check in with yourself?
It's commonly thought that therapy is for people who have a problem they need to work on or who are "going through something". While this may sometimes be true, it's not the only reason to engage in therapy.
All too often we wait until it's too late before seeking help or support with our mental health and wellness. Understanding that it doesn't have to be that way can be life changing. Therapy can be used as a means of exploration, celebration and growth. By prioritising your mental health and embracing therapy as part of your regular self-care practice you can radically alter and improve your relationship with yourself, your life and with those around you.
