Qualifications and Experience:

I’m a trainee Mindfulness Based Core Process psychotherapist. I have been offering lower-cost psychotherapy in private practice in Oxford since 2023. I volunteered as a therapist for The Listening Centre charity between 2023-2025. I also offer Arts and Wellbeing groups through Eleanor Minney Drawing. My pronouns are she/her.

I initially trained in Fine Art, before realising a therapeutic training was right for me. Personal and professional experience led to a Graduate Certificate in Humanistic and Psychodynamic Counselling, at Goldsmiths University of London (2018), followed by Professional Training in Contemplative (Buddhist) Psychology (2018-2020). I’ve since completed 4 years of the Post-Graduate Diploma with the Karuna Institute and am working towards graduation, and accreditation with the UKCP. I’ve worked and volunteered in adult mental health settings, including charities in the community and in-patient wards.

I am registered with the UKCP (UK council for Psychotherapy) and the Association of Core Process Psychotherapists. All my work is supervised according to professional and ethical requirements. These standards of care are of great importance to me, and are grounded in a Buddhist informed ethic of non-harm. 

Recent additional training: 2025: Pregnancy and Infant Loss, Infertility and Rainbow Baby practitioner training with The Foundation for Infant Loss Training.

I have experience supporting people with challenges including (not limited to):

• anxiety
• communication, expressing yourself
• confidence, self-esteem and self-worth
• depression
• grief and loss
• past trauma, traumatic experiences
• relationship issues 
• understanding emotions
• showing up as you are – particularly if you don’t conform to ‘norms’, expectations or assumptions
• stress
• spiritual emergence 
• uncertainty 

You are very welcome to reach out.
