I run face-to-face sessions in Yorkshire including in Leeds, York, Hull and Bridlington. I run online sessions wherever you are in the world. 

I have a deep understanding about mental health and wellbeing, and experience of working with people in tnany different situations in their lives. Clients feed back that I am calm, warm and approachable - that they feel accepted and comfortable being themselves. The approach aims to help people to overcome problems that might at first feel overwhelming, breaking down complex issues into practical, manageable steps. My goal is to build hope, motivation and a clear focus to achieve the positive changes that matter to you. 

I have been a Human Givens Therapist for 17 years, having previously been a GP.

I offer sessions between 9am and 6pm.

I have an enhanced DBS disclosure.

I believe we all have the power to achieve meaningful change in our lives, and I can help you activate your own strengths to create the positive changes you want.
