My approach

My Approach​

​


​​I draw from a range of therapeutic models to suit your needs rather than following a fixed method. That

might include psychodynamic insight, person-centred support, transpersonal depth work, or paying attention

to how emotions show up in the body.

​

I don’t believe in quick fixes or generic advice. Instead, I offer an environment where we can investigate /

excavate what’s holding you back, at your pace and in your language.

​

Some sessions may feel still and spacious, others more emotionally charged or conversational. What

matters is what feels real and useful to you. I try to meet you as you are, not who you think you “should” be.

​

What unites all my work is a deep belief in the value of curiosity, care, and emotional honesty. I offer

a calm, thoughtful space to meet and heal whatever’s showing up in your life—at your pace, in your way.

 

This work is rooted in compassion, not correction. I’m not here to “fix” you because I don’t believe you’re

broken. But I do believe there’s always more to understand, to heal and more of you to come into contact

with.

Welcome

​
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, grief, low mood, relationship issues, or simply feeling a bit lost, therapy offers a space to explore what’s going on beneath the surface.

​

I offer a warm, inclusive, and reflective space to slow down and make sense of things, with curiosity, not judgment.

​

My approach is integrative and relational, rooted in the belief that meaningful change begins with understanding. Together, we’ll explore not just what’s happening, but how it feels, and how that might connect to earlier experiences, internal patterns, and your deeper sense of self.

​

You don’t need to have it all figured out to begin. You just need to be willing to engage.

About me

About Me

​

Before becoming a therapist, I spent many years working in factual television and documentaries, an

industry full of stories and voices, and. In a way, that world helped prepare me for this one. It taught me

how much can be going on beneath the surface, how often we hide in plain sight, and how important it

is to feel truly seen.

​

I trained at the Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy Education (CCPE) in London and now practise in

Norwich and online. My approach is integrative, meaning I draw on a range of therapeutic traditions,
including psychodynamic, humanistic, transpersonal, and body-aware models, depending on what feels

most helpful for you.

Initial assessment

 

The first steps into therapy aren’t always easy. They can bring feelings of vulnerability, uncertainty, even

shame, but many people find the first session brings a sense of relief. ​It can be cathartic simply to speak

things out loud, and to begin. This initial session is a space for you to share what brings you to therapy, and

to get a feel for how we might work together.

 

​What matters most is the dynamic between us, whether you feel comfortable in my presence, and whether

I feel like someone you can explore things with.

​

Session length: 50 minutes

Fee: £60

Frequency: Weekly (same day/time each week)

 

I work in person in Norwich (NR2) and Horsford (NR10), and also offer online sessions.
