My Approach
My practice draws on strengths from different schools of therapy, including Person Centred, Solution Focus and Creativity. I like to work holistically to integrate mind and body, as when we feel good emotionally we can feel good physically.
We all need help in certain times of our lives. I offer a safe and confidential space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. My approach is supportive and offers the tools to equip you towards a resolution and peace of mind.
Where necessary I like to combine relaxation, breath work and stress management techniques into the sessions.
I work in pleasant locations in Coulsdon and Sanderstead providing a pleasant and comfortable space. There is off street parking and is conveniently situated for bus routes serving Purley, Croydon, Caterham and the surrounding areas.
