I am a Trainee Core Process Psychotherapist, providing one-to-one therapy for adults in Oxford, Witney or online.

Core Process Psychotherapy is based on the understanding that beneath our patterns of protection and survival strategies there is an innate capacity for clarity, wholeness, and well-being. Therapy is a process of gently reconnecting with this through awareness, presence, and a compassionate therapeutic relationship.

In our work together, there is space for you to tell your story at your own pace, while also developing a deeper awareness of your present-moment experience. This may include paying attention to thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations, and relational patterns as they arise. Over time, this can support a clearer understanding of how past experiences continue to shape present ways of being.

When early experiences or trauma are activated in current relationships, they can show up as intense emotions such as shame, anger, anxiety, or withdrawal. Therapy offers a steady, supportive space to explore these experiences with care, allowing what has been held alone to be met in relationship.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the therapeutic relationship as the primary container for change. While I may invite mindful awareness into our work, you do not need any prior experience of mindfulness or meditation,  only a willingness to bring yourself as you are.

Alongside my training, I maintain a personal meditation and yoga practice and receive regular clinical supervision to support safe and ethical practice. My ongoing practice is also supported by my time in nature, where I reconnect with a sense of grounding, rhythm, and belonging beyond the individual mind. This helps me stay resourced and present in my therapeutic work.

If this speaks to something in you, you are warmly invited to get in touch to arrange a free initial meeting, to see whether working together feels like a good fit.
