As an Integrative Therapist I draw on my knowledge of techniques from various theoretical schools, including Psychodynamic, Humanistic, Gestalt, Object Relations and the Transpersonal.
No two clients are the same, so these combined skills mean I am not bound to a singular approach, and enables me to adapt to your individual needs.
I can provide you with a confidential and safe space, where you can discuss what is troubling you. This can be an opportunity to reflect and explore your inner feelings, thoughts, and experiences; my wish is to understand these through your lens. This work can be challenging due to facing things you may naturally rather ignore or forget, but I will be alongside you in this process, offering compassion and support.
My view is that by increasing our understanding of ourselves; how our present patterns of behaviour and relating came into existence, we can grow and bring about change, which can ultimately empower us and enrich our lives.
I operate my private practice from various locations in Surrey, where I offer face-to-face, open-ended or short-term therapy to adults (18+):
Guildford (The Eaves Counselling and Psychology)
Woking
Godalming (Surrey Holistic – www.surreyholistic.com)
I have gained further experience by working for a young people’s charity, where I provided counselling to children and young adults (11-25). As well as through my volunteer placement within an NHS setting, where I provided short-term therapy to GP referrals.
I am a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), and am bound by the ethical framework and complaints procedures of this professional body.
I undertake regular continuing professional development (CPD), which enables me to develop and further my skills.
