What sort of couples do you work with?

I welcome and work with traditional monogamous couples, as well as those who practise polyamory or other non-traditional relationships. 


I am also a kink and BDSM aware therapist, and LGBTQIA+ affirming.


Although based in the UK, I work internationally..

Are you only a couples therapist?

I love working with couples of all types, but I also work with individuals. Sometimes this is because they want to talk through some issues in their relationship before bringing it into the open. 


Sometimes, however, it’s about something completely different, such a grief, anger, depression or anxiety.

How long are your sessions?

Sessions are a full 60 or 90 minutes for individuals, 75 minutes for couples work.

Where do you see clients?

I see clients from all over the world, online, and local clients from my clinic in Folkestone in Kent.


I also do walk and talk sessions in Folkestone.

What are your qualifications?

I have diploma in psychotherapy with The Human Givens. The Human Givens Institute is accredited by the Professional Standards Association (PSA), the same body that governs BACP.


I am also a business psychologist (Masters), and a qualified coach, having trained with the ICF recognised Animas.


I am fully insured, in clinical supervision, and have an enhanced DBS status. I take part in regular CPD which includes online courses, in person workshops, books and other methods of study.

What about parking?

There is parking onsite.

Do you do online therapy?

Yes, I see people online via Zoom or WhatsApp video, and this can be very effective. 

How long will I be in therapy?

I cannot tell you exactly how long that will be. However, the beauty of The Human Givens approach is that it aims to get you feeling better as soon as possible so therapy is not prolonged.

Do you treat Trauma?

Yes, The Human Givens has a very effective treatment, the Rewind technique, which is used for trauma. Read more about the Rewind technique here. We use the Rewind technique because it is very safe, very quick and you don’t have to tell your therapist the details of what happened if you don’t want to – it’s not necessary for the treatment.

Will I spend a lot of time talking about my childhood?

Our focus is on today and the future. If things come up that are relevant to what’s going on right now we will, of course, look at them. Deeper issues will almost always involve some look at the past.

Will you give me tools and resources?

Yes. The Human Givens is all about practical actions that can help you feel better as soon as possible. I will be sharing tools, exercises, resources and stories to do this.
