Welcome, and thank you for visiting my website

My journey into talking therapy and coaching started in 2002 with a conversation between myself and a medical colleague. I had qualified as a nurse in 1987, and though I loved many aspects of nursing, I wanted to be in a job that enabled me to spend more time speaking and supporting the person in need. My friend suggested I retrain as a psychotherapist… so off I went to London and did just that.


In 2003, I qualified as a Solution-Focused Psychotherapist, and in 2004 I completed a course in Reverse Therapy, an innovative body-mind training that teaches clients how to interpret and act on the symptom messages from the body. In 2020 I completed a Positive Psychology for Coaching course with Animas and in 2025 I will graduate from the Open University with a BA (Hons) Social Sciences (Psychology).

21 years on, I use all the tools from my therapeutic training to support clients on their journey to living their best life. You can follow my thoughts and updates via my monthly newsletter.

How can I help?

I specialise in helping and supporting people who are struggling with their life, health or career. As a professional psychotherapist reverse therapist and life coach based in Scotland, I work with clients from all over the world via phone and video calls to restore their motivation, confidence, energy, performance, and health.

In my practice, I combine several therapy methods:

Solution-Focused Psychotherapy

Solution focused therapy (SFP) is a brief, goal-oriented form of therapy that focuses on identifying and amplifying the client's strengths and resources to help them find solutions to their problems. It is good for addressing specific issues, setting achievable goals, and promoting positive change in a relatively short period of time.

Eye Movement Integration (EMI) was taught as part of the SFP training and is a therapeutic technique used to help individuals process and resolve traumatic memories. EMI helps reprocess and integrate the experience in a more adaptive and healing way.

Reverse Therapy

Reverse Therapy is a holistic approach to treating chronic conditions that focuses on identifying the underlying emotional and physiological factors contributing to the illness. It is good for individuals experiencing conditions such as chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, and stress-related illnesses, as it helps them address the root causes of their symptoms and make significant lifestyle changes to improve their health and well-being.

Positive Psychology Coaching

Positive psychology coaching is a strengths-based approach that focuses on promoting well-being, resilience, and personal growth. It is good for individuals looking to cultivate a positive mindset, enhance their overall life satisfaction, and achieve their goals by focusing on and developing their strengths and values. Positive psychology coaching emphasises building on what is going well in a person's life, rather than solely addressing problems or pathology.
