Psychotherapist

“An experience Intagrative Psychotherapist with 38 years of experince working with general difficulties and sex and Relationship problems.”

About Me

Navigating life's general difficulties or complex sex and relationship concerns can feel overwhelming. As an Integrative Psychotherapist, I bring deep experience to help you explore these challenges. Our collaborative sessions are tailored to your unique needs, drawing on various approaches to foster clarity and connection. This supportive space helps you gain insights and find practical ways forward.

Approach

I pace sessions at a steady, humane tempo—mapping immediate concerns, noticing recurring patterns and gently addressing sexual and relationship dynamics alongside wider life stresses. I work from my St Albans consulting room and online across Hertfordshire and the UK, so you can choose the setting that feels safest and most convenient. Sessions blend focused dialogue, short reflective tasks between meetings and practical safety or coping plans when trauma, addiction or separation are present. Many people find this approach helps them feel understood and better able to make changes.
