I offer Gestalt therapy, a relational psychotherapy, which provides the possibility of growth and change, through an accepting, respectful and supportive relationship with your therapist. Gestalt therapy is suitable for a wide range of issues including anxiety or depression, the impact of past experiences or trauma, difficulties in relationships, a period of transition or change in your life, grief or loss.

What do you love most about your job?
I am passionate about the benefits of Gestalt therapy, and its potential to support us all to live fully. I get a great deal of job satisfaction from being involved in positive change for individuals. I enjoy being able to meet so many different people, and my job is always interesting.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have been practising Gestalt therapy at Crisis, the national charity for adults experiencing homelessness, since August 2016. I've worked at Crisis since December 2006, and my current role is Wellbeing and Mental Health Manager. I started my private practice in January 2018 to meet a wider range of clients, and for the opportunity to practice long term therapy. I also enjoy the freedom of managing my own therapy room, and making it the most therapeutic space possible.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have a masters in occupational psychology and have worked in the field of mental health and wellbeing for sixteen years. I'm a Gestalt Therapist in Senior Clinical Training, working towards accreditation as a psychotherapist through the Edinburgh Gestalt Institute. I am passionate about the possiblities for change through therapy, and find Gestalt is ideal for exploring a wide range of issues in a holistic way. I'm a compassionate, patient, creative individual, and I really enjoy my work.
I offer a free 30 minute initial consultation, which gives us an opportunity to meet, and for me to explain more about how I work and answer any questions, without commitment.
