I offer low-cost psychotherapy in Bristol and Bath. Within the therapy relationship, I facilitate joint exploration of your unique way of experiencing and being in the world to help you find ways forward that work for you.
I work with many different aspects of human experience including relationships, identity and belonging, navigating different social and cultural contexts, loss of meaning, overwhelm and burnout, bereavement, aloneness, parenting, anxiety, trauma, relationship to body, neurodiversity, spirituality, depth and eco psychology, stuckness, choice and agency, dreams, our relationship with technology and media, including AI, and being with change, uncertainty and transitions in all areas of life.
Psychotherapy involves open-ended exploration of ways of being and relating to yourself, to others, and to your world. It can offer a range of insights, perspectives and possibilities – ways of inhabiting your life and relationships differently and, perhaps, of feeling more fully alive.
I work relationally. Exploring and reflecting together in an open, curious way about what happens in the evolving relationship between us may be part of our work. I value images, dreams, myth and stories and the richness they can bring to life and to therapeutic work. I also understand psychic process as permeated by history and by social circumstances and the wider context of which we are part.

I am completing an MA and professional training in Psychotherapy at BCPC in Bath and am registered with the UKCP.
I studied Psychology and ran a yoga business whilst living overseas in China. I was a lawyer in London. I also spent time in France at Sciences Po, Paris, and studied Human Sciences and Politics, Philosophy and Economics at the University of Oxford. I trained in working with yoga and trauma at the Center for Trauma and Embodiment at the Justice Resource Institute in Boston, and have worked with breath, body and nature-based practices, physical theatre and story-telling. I grew up in a former industrial town in the north of England. I speak Mandarin. I am a member of the UKCP Ethics Committee.
My background reflects a multifaceted interest in human experience, in how we are shaped, and how we shape our own lives, individually, and with and alongside others.
