About
My approach to therapy is collaborative, respectful and non-pathologising. Clients often find me because of my combined experience in Dramatherapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS).
I am a Senior Lecturer in Dramatherapy at the University of Roehampton and have 20 years of clinical experience within the NHS as a dramatherapist working with adults with learning disabilities.
My work embraces mental health difficulties, life crisis and spiritual emergencies. Client groups include people who may have picked up labels or diagnosis such as bi polar, eating disorders, depression and those interested in personal development.
I have a private practice in Brighton and I am interested in supporting people to find their own inherent resources to heal inner conflicts. Individuals are able to connect with their vitality and creativity, and uncover the compassion that leads to healing.
My work is underpinned by trauma informed approaches that offer hope and light in overcoming the pain and heartache of relational trauma. Having been inspired by Gabor Mate's work for years I am now embedding his approach into my practice and currently training in Compassionate Inquiry (CI)
Sessions are held in Brighton, available online and face to face.
