I am an Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist (MNCPS Acc.) specialising in trauma, depression,
stress, grief and anxiety. My approach combines empowerment and psychoeducation, helping clients
understand their inner processes, regain control and create lasting change.
With degrees in Psychology and Counselling and Social and Therapeutic Interventions, and ongoing
postgraduate study in psychology, I combine academic knowledge with genuine human connection.
Alongside private practice, I work in medium and low secure forensic psychiatric settings, supporting
people with complex mental health needs. This experience has shaped my calm, grounded and traumainformed
style.
I integrate Person-Centred Therapy, CBT, Gestalt, IFS, EMDR, Transpersonal and Existential approaches,
tailoring therapy to the individual rather than forcing the person to fit a model. As founder of MINDEST, I
am particularly passionate about accessible trauma-focused support for police, emergency-service
personnel and others working in high-pressure roles.
