About Me

I am an integrative psychotherapist (fancy word – but basically means I am trained in and can combine different forms of therapy), I am able to use my training and skills to tailor therapy to you. If I had to describe my preferred way of working, it would be termed working ‘relationally’, and in a way that is centred around you (and your needs) as the client (a humanistic, person-centred approach). In other words: you are in the driving seat and I am your driving instructor sitting alongside you.

Working ‘relationally’ also means that I am concerned with our relationship together in the therapy room (our client-therapist relationship) and how what happens in our ‘room’ might flow through into your relationships with others in your world, and vice versa. I am also interested in how your past and your present impacts you and your relationships today.

Additionally, as a neurodivergent person myself and having worked with many neurodivergent clients, I am also passionate about adapting therapy and our approach to suit you and your preferences and access needs. I will ask about these preferences when we first meet, and review them with you regularly.

I am also a registered dietitian (RD) with years of experience working with eating disorders and disordered eating, providing weight neutral and non-diet nutrition counselling, and working with folk experiencing feeding and eating barriers including adapting eating to sensory preferences.

Sessions with me are: neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ friendly, weight neutral and gender inclusive.

I currently work exclusively online. Face-to-face sessions will be available in future.

Issues and concerns that I commonly work with:
-Anxiety
-Depression and low mood
-Disordered Eating and Eating Disorders (primarily emotional eating, binge eating and food avoidance/ARFID)
-Body image
-Perfectionism and low self-confidence
-Relationship difficulties and conflict
-Navigating life transitions and loss
-Identity work including exploration of gender and sexuality
-Supporting self-discovery around neurodivergence
-Burnout (including neurodivergent burnout, and compassionate support around shutdowns, meltdowns and sensory overwhelm)

Session options:

1. Individual (1:1) weekly therapy sessions online, via zoom (50 mins)
– Usually meeting at the same time each week
– No minimum commitment but tends to work best for those wanting at least 8 weeks of therapy.
– First session is always an assessment session, where we get to know each other / and make sure it’s a good fit.

Cost: £95

2. A stand-alone ‘untangling things’ session (90 mins)
– A single session to work through a specific issue or dilemma (like a decent comb and some thickkk conditioner is for detangling hair!).
– More practical and hands-on from the get-go (think: if therapy and coaching had a baby!)
– Pre-session preparation and post session email follow-up included, to make sure you get the most out of the session.
– It’s possible to book more than one of these sessions, but if you feel like you need more than three, then regular therapy sessions might be a better fit.

Cost: £170

3. A mix of regular therapy sessions AND food and eating support
– We create a bespoke package together of both regular therapy sessions AND sessions for non-diet nutrition counselling and/or practical food and eating support ‘food therapy’.
– The ratio of therapy versus nutrition counselling sessions is tailored to you.

Cost: TBA (separate pricing for therapy and nutrition counselling sessions).

Some fine print
I currently do not offer face-to-face sessions, however, this is likely to change in future so do feel free to email me to register your interest.

If you are interested in couples therapy (both romantic and platonic) then these sessions will be coming in due course. Email me to register your interest.

Lastly, a very limited number of concessional places may be available for students/trainees and neurodivergent folk on low income/benefits, so please do enquire re: availability.
