I have worked as an Integrative Therapist for over 13 years, utilising skills adapted from various training undertaken, including Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, Play / Creative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamics, Solution Focused Therapy, and many more adapted to meet indidual needs.
I have worked as an NHS Nurse for over 26 years and I carry across professional qualities obtained from both my Nursing and Midwifery carer. I provide a high standard of care to all of her clients, both adults and children, when dealing with sensitive matters within a therapeutic environment.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
