ABOUT
EXPERIENCE
My path to Clinical Sexology and Psychotherapy was unconventional. After graduating in Cognitive Psychology, I spent twenty years at the highest levels of global leadership, working intimately with Heads of State, Royalty and ultra-high-net-worth individuals who quietly hold the world together. That career taught me a great deal about what people rarely say out loud. Orchestrating the private and professional worlds of the global elite taught me the language of high-level discretion, the importance of reality at all costs and gave me a deep understanding of the complex psychological and relational dynamics that shape people’s decisions and behaviour.
Before establishing my private practice in the Cotswolds, I honed my clinical expertise as a trauma-informed therapist supporting survivors of sexual and domestic violence in a women's refuge and in the NHS. This dual background of balancing high-performance optimisation with deep clinical trauma work, allows me to offer a sophisticated, non-judgmental space for individuals and couples.
HOW I WORK
Combining Psychotherapy, Psychology and Coaching, I practice from an integrated approach, which involves selecting techniques from different therapeutic orientations best suited to a Client's or Couple's particular problem. Therapeutically, I mainly work with Polyvagal Theory, the Person-Centred Approach, Transactional Analysis, Attachment Theory, Jungian & Psychodynamic Theory. Psychologically, I bring a behavioural and evolutionary perspective. My aim is to work with, and help, Clients and Couples develop a deeper understanding and acceptance of themselves. Together, we identify any blind spots you may have and we take action by resetting those frames of reference and patterns of behaviour that are holding you back. I also work with Clients who are already living how they want to live, in a way that feels true to them, and who are committed to keeping it that way through regular and honest reflection.
