Depression

I am a dedicated, open and energetic professional. I provide a safe environment, that allows my clients the space to work in a focused manner and challenged to meet their goals.

Expert in anxiety (inc. depression, trauma and grief).  
Psychotherapist with 20+ years experience (news media, military and emergency services).
Psych MA (Hons).

Whilst my Human Givens journey began in 2009, my work in the field began 20 years prior. I have since taught Human Givens on a counselling skills diploma and worked as a therapist with adults, staff within organisations, teachers, parents, young people and children overseas as well as in the UK (particularly Sri Lanka). In private practice my strengths lie in flexibility and creativity - tailor-making my approach to each client. I use an eclectic approach within the Human Givens framework, knowing exactly why each varied and different technique can be effective in accordance with current neuroscience. 

Sometimes we all need a little help to overcome some of life's twists & turns.

A few of the areas which show up in today's world include: 

- Feeling anxious, or tense
- Overthinking & over worrying
- Lacking in self-confidence and self-belief
- Panic episodes
- Violent outbursts
- Addiction
- Low-mood and low self-esteem
- Stress and overwhelm
- Losing a loved one through bereavement
- Trauma and PTSD
- Pregnancy loss, Infertility and IVF
- Lacking direction in life
- The impact of the COVID pandemic

If you can relate to any of the above, then I can help.  You will receive a warm welcome and confidential support from day one.  My aim is simple:  To support you 'be the best you can be', for you to live a life you can love.

Currently working in private Education setting working with adolescents. Prior work with university students as a Mental Health advisor and support worker.

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.
