Experience and approach:

I have developed extensive experience in supporting London’s QTIBPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities. I also work internationally online. As a counsellor, psychotherapist and supervisor I have worked within the charity, education and in private practice.

I have chosen to work hard to make therapy accessible and relevant to clients from diverse economic, cultural, class, and social backgrounds.

As a supervisor, I have worked extensively within the charity sector with trainees and qualified practitioners from different therapeutic modalities, including those working with young people and adolescents, those working with survivors of sexual domestic and racialised violence.

As a result of the pandemic I worked with charities in the housing, hate crime, Sexual Violence and Domestic violence fields. I have worked with charities providing a range of services to children and young people including within education, and have helped to broaden the use of clinical supervision to support a range of LGBTQIA+ workers as well as child and adolescent therapists and counsellors. I have worked within the HIV and sexual health sectors with adults and young people.

If you are a trainee counsellor, psychotherapist or psychologist I charge a fixed fee of £46 for the duration of your training as my way of paying forward into making the profession accessible.

Clinical Supervision fees range between £76 - £121 for individuals, or £91 - £181 for a triad sharing costs. I have a few lower cost spaces supervision spaces reserved for trainees and newly qualified therapists starting out.
