Trauma

With a background in Holistic medicine and as a Yoga teacher, I have always enjoyed helping people and now as a dedicated Human Givens Therapist I am able to reach out to an even wider cliental.

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. 

For as long as I can remember i have been interested in and curious about people. I have also always found meaning in work which has centered on hearing people’s stories. 

I became a fully qualified Human Givens Psychotherapist in 2006. And have been running a very busy private counselling practice in Manchester for 11 years.
