About Me

I have training in Gestalt Psychotherapy, Couples Therapy and Supervision.

I run a private practice where I work with individual clients, couples, and supervisees. I am also part of the training faculty of the Manchester Gestalt Centre, delivering UKCP Accredited Gestalt Psychotherapy Training. In addition, I offer occasional workshops at various venues—please visit my Training page for more information.

Gestalt is a relational therapy and provides an opportunity to increase awareness of yourself and your relationships. I work with the belief that you know how to support yourself and how to solve your own problems, but sometimes you may get stuck in an unhelpful pattern and need someone else to help you to get out of it. I am able to support you when you are vulnerable and to challenge you when you are stuck.

Because Gestalt psychotherapy pays particular attention to relationships it is an ideal model to work with couples. In couples work I will support and challenge you both to talk and listen to each other and explore how each of you have a part to play in creating the difficulties you are facing.

I offer long term and short term therapy.
