Welcome to Liverpool Psychotherapy and Counselling. I understand that deciding to begin psychotherapy can feel like a significant step, and choosing the right therapist is an important decision. I am here to guide you through this process and help you achieve your therapeutic goals.
With 17 years of experience working in various clinical settings within the NHS, including 12 years alongside private practice, I offer a wealth of expertise and understanding. As a UKCP registered psychotherapist since 2004, I bring a solid foundation of clinical knowledge and a compassionate approach to my work.
I specialise in Gestalt therapy, which is a versatile therapeutic approach well-suited to addressing a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties. I am also a Supervising Member of the Gestalt Psychotherapy and Training Institute (GPTI) and a UKCP Recognised Training Supervisor. This background enables me to work with a diverse client base, providing the support and guidance needed for personal growth and healing.
Individual Psychotherapy
I offer both short-term and long-term psychotherapy for individuals, working with you to address personal difficulties. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, or trauma, we will work together in a safe and supportive environment to explore your challenges and find ways to move forward.
Couples Therapy
If you are experiencing difficulties in your relationship, I provide couples therapy designed to help both partners communicate better, resolve conflicts, and strengthen their bond. Whether you are navigating relationship issues, life transitions, or sexual difficulties, I tailor my approach to suit the unique needs of your relationship.
Supervision
As a qualified supervisor, I offer professional supervision for other therapists and counsellors. Supervision is essential for the personal and professional development of therapists, and I support my supervisees in reflecting on their practice, managing challenges, and continuing their growth in the therapeutic field.
Gestalt Therapy Workshops
In addition to individual and couples therapy, I facilitate Gestalt therapy workshops. These workshops offer a space for personal exploration, group interaction, and therapeutic growth. They provide an opportunity to engage with the principles of Gestalt therapy in a supportive, experiential setting.
Online and Face-to-Face Appointments
I offer flexible therapy options to suit your preferences. Both face-to-face sessions in my private practice and online consultations are available, allowing you to choose the format that works best for you.
I have extensive experience working with a wide range of issues, including:
Anxiety, stress, and depression
Relationship difficulties and life transitions
Trauma, including sexual abuse
Cultural conflicts, racism, and white privilege
Sexuality, sexual orientation, and gender diversity
My approach to therapy is non-judgmental and client-centred, focusing on creating a safe, supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace.
If you are ready to take the next step in your journey towards emotional well-being, I encourage you to reach out for an initial consultation. Together, we will explore your goals and start working towards positive change in your life.
