I focus on loss of a baby and the grief that parents have to go through dealing with this. In addition, I work with the impact of physical health conditions on mental health and the experiences of trauma (whether that is current or historic). I believe in developing a safe, warm and empathic environment for clients and this begins with a good working relationship.
What I aim to do is provide a space for you to feel able to open up and do that in your own time. Although I focus on these specific areas I see people with a range of concerns across all ages.
My Experience
Previously I have volunteered as a therapist for Devon Carers and the Iron Mill Counselling services. Currently I am on two committees focusing on research (UK Association of TA Research; European Association of TA theory and development research) with the aim of keeping informed of the latest therapeutic developments for my clients. I offer short and long term therapy for clients depending on what they bring and this is agreed upon on an individual basis. I am also a researcher within the University of Exeter across the medical school and psychology focusing on chronic health conditions, health outcomes, and perinatal mental health.
