I am an experienced integrative psychotherapist offering therapy for individuals and couples. I work in person in Plymouth and online across the UK, supporting clients to understand themselves, their relationships, and the emotional patterns that may be shaping their lives. My work is grounded in an attachment-based approach, exploring how early relational experiences can influence our internal world, emotional regulation, sense of self, and ways of connecting with others. These patterns often develop as protective strategies, helping us manage relationships, vulnerability, conflict, intimacy, loss or emotional overwhelm. In therapy, we can begin to understand these patterns with compassion and curiosity, creating space for greater emotional security and more authentic connection. I work with a wide range of issues, including relationship difficulties, anxiety, low self-esteem, emotional overwhelm, attachment wounds, childhood relational trauma, stress, life transitions, and challenges within intimate relationships. Whether you are seeking individual therapy or couples therapy, I offer a reflective, grounded and relational space where your experiences can be explored safely and at your own pace. I have a particular interest in working with counsellors, psychotherapists, trainees, supervisors and helping professionals. I understand the complexity of holding therapeutic space for others while also navigating your own internal world. The role can bring pressure to be reflective, contained, empathic and “knowing”, even when you may be feeling uncertain, overwhelmed or emotionally impacted by the work. Therapy offers a different kind of space. It is somewhere you can step out of the practitioner role and explore your own experiences without expectation, performance or the need to hold everything together. Working therapeutically with a fellow practitioner can bring a unique relational dynamic. There may be shared language, insight and depth, but also a different level of vulnerability. I aim to meet this with sensitivity, respect and care. Together, we can explore the impact of clinical work, relational patterns, personal history, emotional responses, professional identity, burnout, boundaries, self-doubt, shame, grief, and the parts of yourself that may be harder to access elsewhere. My approach is relational, reflective and integrative. I draw on person-centred, psychodynamic, transpersonal and attachment-based psychotherapy. The therapeutic relationship is central to my work. I see therapy as a secure base from which patterns can be noticed, understood, felt and, where possible, reshaped. In both individual and couples therapy, I support clients to look beneath the surface of relational difficulties and explore the emotional needs, fears and protective strategies that may be driving distress. This can help create greater awareness, emotional regulation, self-compassion and more secure ways of relating. My aim is to offer a calm, thoughtful and compassionate space where you can make sense of your experiences and move towards deeper connection with yourself and others.
