About Me

Drawing on extensive experience, this psychotherapist offers a solution-focused approach. She helps clients clarify practical steps to address a wide range of concerns. She aims for tangible progress, often achieving new ways forward in just a few sessions. This focused approach suits those ready to move past challenges efficiently and find clear direction.

Approach

Work moves quickly toward clear, practical steps that fit your life, using focused conversation and brief experiential techniques to shift stuck patterns. Sessions are offered face-to-face in Portsmouth or remotely by Zoom or phone, paced to suit adults and parents and kept straightforward in English. I work collaboratively to set short, achievable goals, explore how past abuse, trauma or low mood affects self-worth, and practise small, repeatable strategies between meetings to build resilience. This practical rhythm suits people wanting timely, tangible change.
