About me
I was born in Stroud and my love of nature developed through walking the Cotswold Hills and working on farms as a teenager. My thirty year career in practical nature conservation began at Slimbridge.
My appreciation of the natural world affects my work as a psychotherapist. I think I have absorbed some of the stillness from so many hours working alone in woods and wetlands. I believe in the tendency for natural systems including people to repair and grow. I recognise the power of our connection with the natural world to heal, but also how painful and anxiety-inducing climate change and threats to the natural world can be.
I am in my final year of a six year MA in Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy with
Bath Centre for Psychotherapy and Counselling.
What I offer
You will experience me as interested, friendly and open. I am authentic, I will feedback to you honestly, but I don't have the answers. I will help you to find your own answers from within yourself.
I try to understand what it is like to be you, by really listening to you. I will use my training, experience and the emotion I feel through my body to try to understand you, always checking in with you and welcoming correction. I will encourage you to explore your present experience as well as your past, your dreams and physical sensations, but always at a pace that suits you and only when you feel safe enough. Exploring yourself and your past openly is often a frightening and painful process. Having been through years of therapy myself I understand what it takes. I completely respect your individual process and I will do my best to support you in it.
Over time your sense of self will alter, you'll be more aware of your emotions and more space will develop between what you feel and how you act. You will develop more compassion for yourself, bringing confidence and resilience. You will gain new perspectives on your past and present relationships.
Sessions last 50 minutes and cost £40.
