About me

​

I'm an experienced psychotherapist and facilitator. My approach is grounded in body psychotherapy, also known as somatic psychotherapy, alongside relational, transpersonal and process-oriented approaches. Throughout my training and practice I have been drawn to experiential ways of working: ways of engaging with what is happening in the present, rather than only thinking or talking about it.

 

I often return to the paradox of change: that to change we must first accept ourselves as we are, and that lasting change can come from becoming more who we are, rather than who we are not - which may or may not be welcome news! 

 

After gaining a foundation certificate in integrative counselling, my core training took place over six years, in deep psychotherapeutic bodywork and relational body psychotherapy. I am a fully accredited member of the European Association for Body Psychotherapy (EABP), and a member of the Body Psychotherapy Network.

 

I established my private practice in London, where I worked for a number of years before moving to Worthing, West Sussex in 2025. I continue to work both in person and online.

 

Alongside my psychotherapy practice, I have a particular interest in experiences of expanded states of consciousness. I have offered psychedelic integration work for many years and in 2023 completed the two-year Depth Relational Process training with the Institute of Psychedelic Therapy (IPT), receiving a diploma in psychedelic-assisted therapy.

 

I am now a member of the core facilitation team at the IPT, and I am involved in delivering training, group process work and experiential retreats.

 

Before becoming a full-time therapist, I worked in digital and print content across music, broadcasting and the charity sector. I have a BSc in Human Sciences from the University of Nottingham, with a focus on psychology and philosophy.

 

I'm a long-time meditator and have explored a range of spiritual and wisdom traditions. I'm interested in how we can stay connected to ‘there’ - something bigger than ourselves, beyond the everyday - while also living ‘here’: in our bodies, relationships, lives and the present moment.
