My Background and therapeutic approach

​

I was born and educated in Aylesbury but spent some of my childhood in the Middle East. I have also lived in London, Chesham and Devon. I have worked for most of my adult life in the television and film industry, but after a bereavement and redundancy I found myself back in Aylesbury and with a determination to turn my life in a new direction. This is when I decided to train to become a counsellor and psychotherapist.

I believe that my life experiences have and continue to have a strong influence on my style of therapy. 

But sometimes talking is not enough. I work with the whole person, spiritually and somatically, which means we get to dig beneath the surface sometimes to help you to understand what is really going on at all level of your being.

I have recently trained in Yoga Nidra, as well as having extensive experience of meditation and mindfulness. I bring elements of this into my work, which many find helpful. But the approach is always guided by you and what you feel comfortable with.
