My professional background is two-fold. I worked in the creative sector for 25 years, within print, creative and media agencies. Managing complexity in pressurised environments eventually led me to leading teams, consultancy and co-running businesses.

​​​​​

Navigating personal loss in 2011 necessitated some long overdue reflection and re-engaged an earlier passion for psychology. This led me in time to enrol at Regents University in 2014 to re-train as a Counselling Psychotherapist in my early forties.

​​​​​​​​

I transitioned careers in 2017 to start The Unsaid Space and qualify with the bacp (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and have been working with individuals ever since, as well as providing Reflective Clinics and Workshops within organisations since 2019. 

​

I've studied and continue to refine a range of therapeutic methods; be it analytical, existential, somatic and psychedelic. So my approach goes far beyond talking through problems. Sessions are tailored and integrate open dialogue, connected breathing, body focusing, visualisation, emdr, trauma release exercises and creative expression as needed. ​​

​​

Personally, my family roots are shared equally between Newcastle and East London. Having grown up and worked in various parts of greater London, I eventually settled in Sussex in 1999. I'm fortunate to have a supportive and encouraging partner as well as two hugely inspiring daughters and I try to retain balance through a deep affection for my work and my relationships with friends, family, exercise, nature and learning.
