My goal is to help clients make positive changes to their lives. Using the Human Givens approach, I offer brief, practical and solution focused therapy which draws on the client’s own resources to explore and address their emotional needs.
With over 30 years of experience in the NHS, both as a midwife and a mental health nurse, I am happy working with a variety of clients and conditions including anxiety, depression, phobias, panic attacks, narcissism, trauma and bereavement.
I have developed a specialist interest in the management and treatment of PTSD and trauma, including those arising from childbirth, infertility, miscarriage, menopause and sexual health.
I accept direct client, together with insurance, GP and NHS referrals. I work from a private practice based in Rutland LE15, easily accessible by car. Parking available.
I have enhanced DSB disclosure and full professional insurance.
