Education & Experience

I bring a rich and varied background to my work, drawing from a blend of therapeutic, creative, and embodied practices. My formal training includes a BA (Hons) in Drama and Dance from the University of Exeter and a Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling from the University of East London. I have completed EMDR Basic Training with the Institute for Creative Mindfulness in the USA and advanced Attachment-Informed EMDR training (Parts 1 and 2) with EMDR Focus in the UK. Alongside this, I have engaged in specialist training in areas such as dreams and intergenerational trauma, creative integrations in therapy, and brain-body integration. My approach is further enriched by extensive CPD in child sexual abuse, sibling sexual abuse, substance misuse, addiction and attachment, mindfulness, and working therapeutically online. I am also a qualified Bothmer Movement Practitioner and Waldorf Games Educator, have a deep understanding of the mind-body connection and nervous system regulation, and bring over 14 years of personal Vipassana meditation practice into my work. These experiences, along with previous training in cross-cultural communication, international volunteering, storytelling, and business operations, allow me to meet clients with depth, curiosity and presence. Whether drawing on creative, somatic or evidence-based approaches, I strive to create a therapeutic space that feels safe, collaborative, and attuned to your unique needs.
