I have trained at the Karuna Institute where I now work as a tutor. I have an MA in Mindfulness Based Psychotherapy and am accredited with the UKCP. I am in regular supervision with a Core Process supervisor and work within the UKCP’s ethical code. I am also trained in Wild Therapy and work outdoors in nature.
You are welcome, whatever the reason that brings you here. I am particularly interested in working with people who are affected by some of the big issues that shape our lives and identity:
*birth and adoption – how we come into the world and our early experiences profoundly shape our lives in more ways we can imagine
*moving through the world as a black, asian, or minority ethnic person of colour is complex, and being of mixed racial heritage can create additional feelings around loss and belonging
*LGBTQIA+ coming to terms with our sexuality as a lesbian or gay man, or recognising our gender identity can be difficult at any time of life, and coming out to others can turn our world upside down
*eating disorders and other addictions can be a response to the difficulties we find ourselves in
Working with me will give you the space and support to explore your life experiences and help you understand the patterns at the roots of the issues that affect you.
I have experience in working with groups, including co-facilitating a group in meditation and inquiry for a year. Since 2015 I have worked with individuals and groups to overcome the barriers that get in the way of achieving goals, using an adapted ‘Immunity to Change’ process. I’ve also worked with groups of professionals looking to develop themselves and their business, so if this interests you let me know!
It is important that in being with me you feel heard, met and attended to with kindness.
Sessions are weekly for a fixed period of time or on an open ended basis and I charge £70.00 per session. I also carry some spaces at a lower cost so if affordability is a barrier I would be happy to discuss this with you.
Next steps: If you would like to meet me it’s helpful if we can have an initial chat on the phone, and arrange a time for a 30 minute conversation / consultation. There is an opportunity for you to ask any questions you have about the therapeutic process and the way I work, and for me to find out a little bit more about what is going on for you at the present moment.
It’s important that you get the right therapist for you and this step will help you choose.
If we decide to go ahead and work together we’ll commit to six sessions in the first instance and then review where we are going after that.
I am looking forward to meeting you
