Experience
I have worked in mental health settings for over 8 years, with people from various
backgrounds and ages, across the UK. I began supporting students & young people with their mental
health, disability, & neurodivergent experiences (across various universities in North- West - Greater
Manchester & Lancaster).
Since 2018 I have also been working with survivors of childhood sexual abuse and/or domestic
violence, in various settings and charities across the UK (SafeNet – Lancashire, Concrete & Savana –
Staffordshire, NAPAC – Nationally). This required me to undertake trauma-informed training and
allowed me to become a trauma informed therapist.
Throughout my career I have offered hundrends of single sessions of therapy, as well as comprehensive
mental health and risk assessments with clients, to establish the best therapeutic approach suitable
for them going forward.
My work experience allows me to facilitate conversations with you as a client, where we can identify
together what works for you and if this is the right therapeutic space for you. Across all my
experience I worked collaboratively with people, and supported them in building their confidence,
learning about themselves. Diversity and inclusion also played a big role in my work so far, which
allows me to confidently explore any impact of multiculturalism, neurodiversity, and differences on
your wellbeing.
