Individuals and Couples Therapy

I understand that finding a therapist and embarking on a therapeutic relationship is a very tender and often challenging undertaking; and am here to support you as you explore taking that step with me. 

The people who find their way to me are varied. Many have experienced trauma, including complex and developmental trauma, and although some from the outside may appear to be coping well and even successful they often carry burdens around worthlessness, not being good enough, not fitting in, not belonging and not being wanted. Many are also neurodivergent, often late diagnosed or just beginning to consider this identity for themselves, carrying often the extra burdens of having to try to fit into a world that does not fit who they are. Others may come feeling that something is wrong or unfinished inside and wanting help to be able to move forwards from places that feel stuck or limiting or no longer fit. I am experienced in working with dissociative parts and extreme protectors.

My practice is neuro-divergent and queer affirming and I work with each person to identify and support their unique being in the world, to help them develop an internal sense of belonging and connection, and inner resilience. I am increasingly aware of the need to also help people  this sense of connection and belonging  with the wider web of life also; something that has been for too long absent within our culture. 

I currently have limited spaces for individual IFS therapy and for IFIO couples work online and within the Hope Valley. I offer a free 30 minute zoom consultation to explore what you are looking for and whether I would be a good fit for you. Please contact me if you would like to arrange this. 

I charge using a sliding scale from £140-£90 per hour for individual work and £150-£110 for couples work. The upper end of the scale enables me to offer lower cost sessions to people to make this work more affordable for others with less abundance in their lives at this time.
