Core Process Psychotherapy

I offer individual psychotherapy to adults, both in person and online.

My approach is contemplative, relational and somatic, with an emphasis on staying close to what is unfolding in the present moment.

Core Process Psychotherapy brings together Buddhist understandings of awareness and inherent health with Western psychotherapeutic practice. In a gentle and receptive space, we can explore your thoughts, feelings and bodily responses, as well as the patterns and adaptations that may be shaping your life and relationships.

People come to therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties, life transitions, developmental or relational trauma, or a more general sense of disconnection. At the heart of this approach is the understanding that our difficulties do not define the whole of who we are. Therapy can support a more compassionate relationship with ourselves, along with greater freedom and choice in how we meet what arises.

Before training as a psychotherapist, I spent many years working in the creative arts and leading an independent cultural organisation. This continues to inform my understanding of creativity, leadership, relationship and change.

My practice is also informed by ongoing training in mindfulness meditation and Grof® Breathwork.

I offer seasonal retreats, workshops and contemplative groups alongside my individual practice.

You are welcome to contact me to explore whether this way of working might be supportive for you.
