About me and my therapy practice
I am a counsellor/psychotherapist and I also offer life coaching and EMDR therapy. I currently offer face to face sessions (Norwich) or online sessions on Zoom for all these services. Please email me either through this BACP profile or directly through my website if you have any questions. You can also book your sessions online on my website if you know the service you are looking for, or book an initial consultation online if you are unsure.
The approach taken is a client-led person-centred approach, where a non-judgemental and compassionate attitude and a genuine personal interaction are key to the process. While being rooted in a person-centred approach, methods and skills from other counselling approaches can also be drawn upon according to client needs. I work in Norwich and am open to online sessions, telephone sessions, outdoor sessions and incorporating creative writing or other creativity into the therapy. Couples and pairs work is also possible.
EMDR is a specialised approach for reprocessing traumatic memories. If you have memories which you find distressing from the past and cause you problems in the present, it is likely EMDR therapy may help you to heal from the effects of these memories.
Life coaching is an alternative to therapy, for those who wish to work in a goal-oriented and more future focussed way. I am trained in cognitive behavioural coaching but tailor each coaching session to individual needs.
I am also an Associate Lecturer in the School of Psychology at The Open University and a tutor on the Counselling Certificate course at The Norwich Centre for Personal, Professional and Spiritual Development.
I have a passion for neurodivergence, being late diagnosed with Developmental Coordination Disorder (dyspraxia) myself and I facilitate a non-profit group offering peer support and awareness training for dyspraxia (Dyspraxia Dialogues).
