Internal family systems therapy
Explore IFS, an evidence-based approach to understanding your inner world, healing old patterns, building self-trust, unburdening emotional pain, and cultivating self-compassion, resilience, and a deeper connection within.
Deep Brain reorienting
DBR is grounded in neuroscience. It is a more gentle trauma therapy supporting nervous system regulation by allowing the brain to process shock, reduce hypervigilance, and restore safety, presence, and embodied resilience naturally. It reduces the charge in emotions so can be wonderful to do before moving to other therapies.
Expanded states of consciousness
Working with expanded states of consciousness can be an effective way to heal trauma, difficult life events and challenging emotions, even when other therapies have not achieved the results you are seeking. Expanded states of consciousness have been used for thousands of years all around the world, for example meditation, drumming, reciting mantras, breathwork and dance.
I am a fully qualified and experienced therapist, a qualified Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist and a full member of NCPS.
I consider myself to be an integrative and transpersonal therapist. Integrative means all the therapies I’m trained in are at your disposal in sessions, and transpersonal means that sessions can support personal growth and healing by exploring not just emotions and thoughts, but also spiritual, mindful, and meaning-centered aspects of a your experience.
I work with adults using IFS (Internal Family Systems therapy), Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), talking therapy and creativity. I offer a safe, confidential and accepting space for you to bring the aspects of yourself, your life, relationships and/or events, past and present, that you are struggling with, that you wish to change in some way or that are getting in the way of your quality of life.
It can be hard to reach out to someone for support, and even harder to find a therapist that you resonate with. As such I offer a free, 30 minute initial session (or half price full session) this gives you the chance to see how it feels to work with me and for us both to see if it feels like a ‘good fit’.
