About
I am an integrative psychotherapist working with children, adolescents and adults. My practice is rooted in the belief that therapeutic change emerges through relationship — through feeling emotionally safe enough to be seen, understood and met with attunement.
I work particularly with neurodivergent children and young people, looked after children, developmental trauma, attachment difficulties and communication beyond words. Alongside private practice, I work within schools, residential settings and multi-agency services, supporting children, families and the wider team around the child.
My approach integrates psychodynamic and attachment-based understanding with creative, experiential and nervous-system-informed ways of working. Depending on the needs of the individual, this may include play, sensory materials, metaphor, emotional regulation work and equine-assisted therapeutic practice.
Before training as a psychotherapist, I spent over two decades within the advertising and film industry, leading creative teams and working closely with narrative, emotion and human communication. I later transitioned into child services and psychotherapy, where my frontline experience within SEND, residential care and school settings deepened my understanding of developmental trauma, neurodiversity and relational work.
I am particularly interested in how we communicate through behaviour, movement, silence, sensory experience and relationship — especially when words feel unavailable, unsafe or insufficient. My work is grounded in curiosity, presence and the belief that meaningful therapeutic change often begins beyond words.
