I am an integrative counsellor based in Market Harborough in the East Midlands, having trained at the Leicester Centre for Psychodynamic Counselling and Goldsmiths, University of London. I am BACP accredited, which means I have met the BACP's higher standards as an independent, competent and ethical practitioner. I work with individuals and couples and my focus is to put the client and your needs at the centre of our work together. For individual therapy, my training is psychodynamic, and as such I take a particular interest in a client’s internal world and how it came to be formed through early experiences and relationships. When working with couples, my approach is systemic: we look at the context of the relationship, and how the dynamics within it are affecting each individual's emotional needs. We work in a goal-oriented way to try and improve communication and to focus on the aims of each member of the couple. I work with individuals of any gender, relationship or sexual identity and focus on the therapeutic relationship to provide change for clients, in a safe and non-judgmental environment.Therapy takes place once a week and is usually open-ended, although I do also offer short-term focused work. Appointments take place at the same time and on the same day each week and are 50 minutes long (60 or 90 minutes for couples). I offer sessions Monday to Friday.
