Experience and approach:

The majority of my work is with adults who have experienced abuse in childhood. Being abused can have a devastating impact on a person’s life, and even though it might look to the outside world as if everything is fine, sometimes it can feel like your past is living in the present with you, affecting your life every day.

I work with all kinds of clients, but some areas in which I have particular interest or extra experience include:

cultural issues
depersonalisation and derealisation
dissociation
FGM
long-term complex trauma, particularly childhood trauma
religious trauma, including cult leavers
sexual abuse

It can be especially difficult to talk about sexual preferences when you have a history of sexual trauma, or of being shamed for your sexual identity. I work in a gentle, non-pathologising way which allows us to look at all different aspects of your identity, including sexuality, in the light of who you are as a whole person.
