Services

I have experience as a practitioner in a range of areas, and on this page are some key examples where I can offer support.

My Training and Experience

I am a qualified Level 6 Gestalt Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and I abide by the code of ethics of Metanoia Institute, where I trained, and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), of which I am an Individual member.

Experience

I have been working in clinical, therapeutic settings since 2018.

I spent two years working in the NHS Well-being services, specialising in running support groups for those struggling with addictions; with a focus on substance abuse, hoarding and gambling.

I use this experience, alongside three years of clinical practice, to support resilience and growth in my clients. I care deeply about each individual client, and this empathy further supports my work as a practitioner.

I volunteered with Stonewall on their helpline for two and a half years; this is something that inspired me to begin my psychotherapy training. Everyone is welcome in my practice, however, I do also offer limited, low-cost spaces for supporting those in the LGBT+ and GSRD communities.
