Training & Qualifications

My approach is Person Centred and Integrative which means that I will use different methods of therapy according to the individual needs of clients. I believe in creating a new therapy for each client, as each client is a unique individual with unique thoughts, feelings and problems. The most important thing for me as a therapist is to try to see the world through the client's eyes and to treat each client as the individual they are.

​

I hold a Diploma in Integrative Counselling from the Interpsyche Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy studies in Dartford, Kent. Working Integratively means using several different approaches and models in all client work according to individual needs. I have also completed extensive training to work with all types of eating disorders including training with the Neurodiverse client in mind.

​

  • Anxiety/panic
