About me
I work with adults from all walks of life, although many of my clients are thoughtful professionals, leaders, creatives and helping professionals who are seeking deeper, more meaningful change. They are often psychologically minded people who are not looking for quick fixes, but for greater self-understanding, lasting transformation and a more authentic way of living.
Many of my clients appear to be coping well on the outside, yet privately feel that something isn't quite right within.
Perhaps you've spent years meeting expectations, building a career, caring for others or supporting those around you, while privately feeling anxious, exhausted, disconnected or uncertain about who you have become.
If this resonates, you are not alone. Coaching—and, where appropriate, psychotherapy—offers a space to pause, reflect and rediscover who you are beneath the roles, responsibilities and survival strategies that once helped you cope.
Whether we work through coaching, psychotherapy, or an integrated approach will depend upon your goals, your preferences and what is most likely to support meaningful and lasting change.
My work is not simply about reducing symptoms or solving problems. It is about helping people understand themselves more deeply, reconnect with their authentic selves, and create lives that feel more meaningful, connected and fulfilling.
I work with people experiencing:
- developmental and relational trauma (including CPTSD)
- perfectionism, imposter syndrome and chronic self-criticism
- anxiety, overwhelm and burnout
- relationship difficulties
- life transitions, loss and questions of meaning
- obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
- addiction and compulsive behaviours
- leadership development and professional growth
About Me
Throughout my career I have been fascinated by what enables people not simply to cope, but to flourish. That curiosity continues to shape every aspect of my work today.
I am a UKCP-registered transpersonal integrative psychotherapist with a Master's degree in Psychological Coaching and a Diploma in Executive Coaching. For more than forty years I have worked in personal and professional development, including eighteen years as Chief Executive of a national media and training charity. Since 2008 I have supported individuals, leaders and organisations through psychotherapy, executive coaching and personal development.
Unlike many practitioners, I bring together the depth of relational psychotherapy with the clarity and forward movement of psychological coaching. Together we explore not only what you want to change, but also why those patterns developed, creating the conditions for meaningful and lasting transformation.
Therapy and coaching with me are thoughtful, collaborative, compassionate and deeply reflective.
Rather than offering quick fixes or advice, I help you understand the unconscious patterns, longstanding emotional experiences and habitual ways of relating that may be keeping you stuck.
Our work creates space for greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, freedom and lasting change. Where appropriate, I may draw upon dreams, symbolism, creative imagination and body awareness to deepen insight and support lasting transformation.
I often invite clients to wonder:
"Who might you become if you no longer needed to live from old patterns of fear, self-criticism or survival?"
Questions like these often open the door to fresh insight, greater freedom and meaningful change.
For those seeking practical change without sacrificing psychological depth, my work offers both insight and forward movement—helping you understand your past while creating a more fulfilling future.
