I am a BACP accredited psychotherapist, offering counselling and psychotherapy, in person and online. I have trained in both Transpersonal (Jungian) and Gestalt approaches to therapy, with years of additional training in dreamwork and art therapy. All these modalities see therapy as, potentially, an exciting and inspiring journey of discovery. This does not mean that we can avoid pain, grief, and suffering. Rather, it suggests that there are resources within us that both bring joy, and support resilience in the face of life’s challenges.
“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become,” C. G. Jung
I first had therapy myself in my early twenties and I benefited greatly from the the kindness and empathy of the counsellor. When, in my mid-twenties, I discovered art therapy and dreamwork, I discovered a new joy and excitement in the process. In the following years I sought out training courses and work opportunities that fed this passion. Thirty years on, this is the work that most inspires me, and I love to share it with clients who enjoy working this way.
