Mynd Essence

Individual Counselling

With over 20 years of experience working with individuals, young people, and families, I have addressed a wide range of issues, including life changes, adolescent development, grief, anxiety, depression, conflict, and domestic violence. My extensive experience and qualifications in psychology, psychotherapy, and counselling, combined with a client-centred and compassionate approach, make me an ideal support for your journey.

Our approach

My experience in Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP) and Rapid Transformational Therapy (RRT) allows me to offer a tailored approach to psychotherapy and counseling that is both insightful and empathetic.

This method not only navigates through challenging times but also fosters profound personal development. By creating an environment of trust and understanding, I assist clients in exploring the complexities of their experiences, promoting healing and a journey of self-discovery.

My approach ensures that each session contributes to your realisation of full potential, aiming for lasting, meaningful change within a professional and supportive framework.

Our services

Adolescent Counselling

As a clinical counsellor with experience in adolescent development, I understand the stress of the formative years and the emotional outpouring that comes with them. Navigating boundaries, testing, and negotiating are all part of the process. My approach emphasises open and safe conversations where teens are seen, heard and supported with unconditional love and connection. A key predictor of success in adolescence is having trusted adults to turn to, and I am here to provide that support and guidance.

Psychotherapy Approach

Psychotherapy is deeply rooted in the belief in an individual’s capacity for self-discovery and growth. We emphasise a holistic method that not only addresses immediate concerns but also nurtures long-term emotional and social well-being. By integrating principles from person-centred and Gestalt therapy, we create a therapeutic environment that encourages hands-on exploration of feelings and emotions. This process is designed to foster positive change, enhance self-awareness, and promote a healthier sense of self. Our sessions are tailored to help you embrace the present moment fully, empowering you to live with greater authenticity and fulfillment. Through this journey, we aim to support you in realising your full potential and achieving lasting, meaningful transformation.

Sand Tray Therapy

The experiential therapy of the sand tray is the tactile sensation of the sand and miniature figures. It supports individuals in the meaning-making process and helps them integrate and express aspects of their world, inner thoughts, feelings, sensations, and difficulties.
