For twenty years I have trained and worked in a variety of creative approaches to psychological therapy. I have trained in Integrative Counselling, Wilderness & Creative Arts Therapy, Dramatherapy, Environmental Arts Therapy, Psychodrama Group & Individual Psychotherapy and Analytical Psychology/Jungian Psychoanalysis. Whilst striving to maintain the depth and uniqueness of each of these approaches within a pluralistic framework, I also attempt to integrate them within my clinical practice. When I am working with a client, I am holding each of these methods in my mind and always trying to consider what the most helpful way of working might be for this individual in this moment. 

You may feel more drawn to one way of working than another and so we will find the way that feels most appropriate for you. You may want to simply talk through things from the past, your current day-to-day life or your thoughts and feelings about the future; you may want to explore your dreams and other unconscious material; sometimes words are not enough and so you may wish to draw, paint and sculpt or you may want to explore something in a more embodied way through movement, action or roleplay. Often the most therapeutic thing we can do for ourselves is to spend more time outdoors in nature, and so I offer all of my clients the possibility of working outdoors in specially chosen locations or indoors in a dedicated therapy space.
