A space to heal,
grow, and thrive

My therapy room is a safe space for you to be yourself, explore what it means to be you, and understand your needs and how to meet them. Whether you are wanting to know yourself better, work through difficult thoughts and emotions, understand your relationships or change unhelpful patterns, I am here to value and support you. I am passionate about inclusivity, open communication and taking a joint responsibility with clients to make a positive difference in their lives.

I draw on 25 years’ experience of working with people, including within educational and healthcare settings, as well as in the therapy room. In my work in counselling and psychotherapy, I offer you respect, empathy and empowerment to realise your potential. My main approach is based in Transactional Analysis, which is a humanistic style, and I integrate this with skills from wider training. Therapy with me is individualised in order to meet you where you are at in your life journey.

Common issues which clients bring include anxiety, depression, stress, issues in relationships with partners, family, colleagues or socially, neurodivergence, sexuality, parenting, psychosexual concerns, bereavement, personal development and trauma. I have personal and professional experience in all of these areas.

I hold a Diploma in Transactional Analysis, a BSc in Neuroscience and am a Trainee Psychotherapist in my final year of a 4 year Master's level Psychotherapy qualification. As such, I am registered as a trainee member with The UK Council for Psychotherapy and the UK Association of Transactional Analysis. I am a registered medical doctor, and although this gives me a strong understanding of medical issues and how they can interplay with your mental wellbeing, in this role I am offering therapy rather than medical care.

I predominantly offer face to face appointments in Bristol, but I do have some space available for online work. Sessions are 60 minutes long.

Working ethically is important to ensure your safety, and as well as my own moral values, I work within the ethical frameworks of UKATA, EATA and UKCP.

Please feel free to contact me by phone or e-mail. We can make an initial appointment to discuss what you would like to get out of therapy and explore what it would be like to work together.
