Experience and approach:

I have over 15 years of experience working within welfare sectors in various settings; supporting mental health and well-being, financial hardships and those in education. I started my therapeutic training over 10 years ago and the journey to this point has offered a vast and enriching experience for personal and professional growth. Within my therapeutic practice, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients, with a wide age range and varying challenges. I have found it incredibly rewarding to support individuals in their journeys toward personal growth and healing. My practice is located at Dartington Estate in Totnes, Devon, where the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape encourages nature connection and offers a tranquil and inspiring backdrop for therapeutic work. My room is private, fully accessible for wheelchair users and is conveniently located by a car park. I offer a variety of session times to accommodate different schedules and am open to concession rates, as I believe therapy should be accessible to all.
