I’m an Existential-Analytic Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with a long-standing connection to creative life. Before training as a therapist, I spent around 20 years working in art schools, supporting creativity across the whole arc—from undergraduate study through to doctoral work. As part of my counselling training, I worked as a student counsellor at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
My training in psychotherapeutic counselling draws on different approaches to therapy, including phenomenology, existentialism, psychoanalysis, and person-centred therapy. This allows me to utilise the most valuable and relevant aspects of each approach in my practice.
If I were to sum up my way of working, I would say it begins by acknowledging the uniqueness of each individual’s experience, especially in relationships with others. From there, I incorporate a wide range of ideas – from art and popular culture to established theories – to help make sense of that experience and gain greater clarity.
My practice is LGBTQI+ affirming and kink/CNM-aware. I have specialist training in psychosexual therapy and can support individuals across a wide range of relationships and identities.
