I am an Art Psychotherapist, EMDR therapist, Flash-Trained Therapist and a Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) Provider. I can provide therapy across any of these therapeutic modalities separately, or can weave them together integratively. I aim to provide an individually tailored journey, stepping with you along the way.

I work mainly with adults to support alleviating distress resulting from trauma, depression, anxiety, bereavement and autoimmune dis-ease. Mind-body connectivity is key to my practice with specialist understanding around trauma and neurodiversity. I like to position myself at the cusp of research and evidence-based practices to shape what I can offer; guided by experience of what has clinched the deal in my own healing journey.

Including SSP into my skillset has broadened the scope for harnessing clients’ innate healing capacities. It is a non-invasive neuromodulation music listening programme which lends itself well to Art Psychotherapy and EMDR practices. Originally developed 20 years ago with neurodiversity in mind, it has a growing evidence base for restoring balance, feelings of connection and decreasing symptoms of trauma (PTSD, C-PTSD), dissociation, functional neurological disorder (FND), fibromyalgia, parkinson’s, and chronic fatigue (CFS).

With SSP I can support families navigating neurodiversity and sensory processing challenges.

I have a small private practice. I work in-person and remotely.  I work part-time in NHS Adult Community Mental Health. I lecture for a Masters in Art Therapy programme, provide tailored trainings and clinical supervision. I currently sit on the council for the British Association of Art Therapists (BAAT).

Registered with Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), British Association of Art Therapists (BAAT) & EMDR Association UK & Ireland.
