I enjoy working collaboratively to create a shared sense of the goals and process of therapy. My work is informed by Clinical Psychology within a psychodynamic framework, my training in somatic psychotherapy, and a deep interest in the intersection of the mind, body, emotions and spirit. WIth regard to the latter I utilise the practices of yoga and meditation as a means to further the growth inherent in any beneficial therapeutic work.
