I am a Supervisor, Certified Transactional Analyst and a fully qualified psychotherapist and psychotherapeutic counsellor with a masters in Transactional Analysis (TA) based in Bracknell Forest and Crowthorne, Berkshire. I use relational TA as my main theoretical framework and also draw on other therapeutic methods including Internal Family Systems and parts work.
I work with young adults and adults and I specialise in working with anxiety, overwhelm, stress, low self esteem, relationship problems and childhood trauma.
The therapeutic relationship is central to the therapeutic process and I provide a confidential and contained space for you to explore your life and relationships, your experiences, thoughts and feelings. We can work on developing your self-awareness by gaining an understanding of any stuck repetitive patterns of unfulfilling behaviour or negative thinking. With self-awareness comes new choices and new choices can lead to positive change.
To see whether I am the right therapist for you, I offer a free phone call in the first instance during which you can ask me any questions and get a feel for how we communicate together. If we choose to proceed, we can agree a therapeutic contract in which we may decide upon a limited number of sessions, or longer term open-ended work.
I adhere to the UK Council for Psychotherapy Code of Ethics and am a member of this organisation.
