My training and experience

I hold a BSc in Psychology from Manchester University, specialising in the psychology of love, social communication via the Internet, and work-related stress. During this time I also obtained training and experience of working with neurodivergence.

I am a UK accredited Gestalt Counsellor and trained at the Gestalt Centre in London. I am also a qualified clinical supervisor, having trained with The Counselling Tutor in 2025. I have additionally worked with individual and group peer supervision since 2020. My training allows me to work across modalities, and with a range of practitioners.

I have obtained additional training and experience in:

• Anger, leading to violence, depression or lack of direction
• Neurodivergence including ADHD, autism, PDA, dyslexia and giftedness
• British Boarding School Syndrome
• Gender, sexual or relationship diversity
• Women and mental health, including the impact and experience of menopause
• Difficulties with the twin relationship dynamic – of which I also have lived experience 

I am experienced and fully trained in different ways of working such as:

• • Email and SMS counselling
  • Video and telephone counselling
  • Outdoor/nature or ‘walk and talk’ therapy
  • Meditation, visualisation and mindfulness practices
  • Therapeutic writing such as journalling and freefall writing, and other creative practices

I have previously worked as a trainer and facilitator around mental health issues. I am also a Reiki Master Level 3, trained in London (Levels 1 and 2) and Hong Kong (Level 3). I was attuned to Reiki Master level in Hong Kong by Pervin Clasper in Usui Shiki Ryoho, the Usui System of Natural Healing.
