Ways to Work Together

Psychotherapy/Counselling

Booking from Summer 2026: My practice is set in Heyshott, in the heart of the South Downs. I work within humanistic and Jungian traditions, with patterns and tensions beneath the surface. The aim isn't to fix. It's to understand, deeply enough that something shifts.

Psychology of Spaces

Psychological Associate for the design and build process. Collaborating with architects, interior designers, and organisations looking to improve on wellbeing and performance. 

Psychology of Leadership

For leaders and coaches seeking to build high-performance cultures. Ensuring alignment and sustainable relationships, in elite sport, education, finance, healthcare, the arts, and other industries.
