Before training to become a psychotherapist I was an artist and arts educator.  I worked creatively with people from vulnerable and hard to reach communities, enabling them to have their voices heard and their stories told through the creation of artwork.  During this time I came to understand the therapeutic and cathartic benefits of using creative techniques to explore and express oneself.  This experience fueled my desire to help people on a deeper level and so I began my training to become a psychotherapist.  I completed my qualification in Adult Integrative Psychotherapy at the Northern Guild for Psychotherapy in 2020.  

​

I began my practice as a therapist at the Northern Guild for Psychotherapy where I worked with a range of people both long and short term.  I also gained several years experience providing training therapy to trainee counsellors and psychotherapists.  In 2022 I set up my own therapy practice in the Ouseburn. 

 

I have personal experience of the transformation that is possible through a positive, healing relationship with a therapist.  I know how difficult it can be to struggle and to seek help, but I also know that change is possible. Therefore, I am a therapist with a deep belief in the ability of human beings to heal and flourish given the right support and a nurturing connection with another human being.  I have worked as a therapist since 2016 so have witnessed many positive, healing, transformative changes in my clients.
