Monday to Thursday 8am - 8pm

I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor, with experience of working with adults and young people. I have experience of working in the NHS, schools and my private practice.

I have a clinical interest in working with developmental trauma, family issues/relationships, therapeutic parenting and neurodiversity  - helping you to understand your diagnosis and/or helping family members to understand and support a loved one with their diagnosis. (ADHD, Autism, AuDHD, Burnout, FASD, Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria and DLD).

Traumatic experiences can remain in your nervous system, long after the event. They show up as boundary issues, shame, relational confusion, dysregulation and hypervigilance. Using somatic principles to help you understand the wisdom of your body, I will help you repair what was missing and feel more empowered to make healthier choices that work for you.

My training in Dyadic Developmental Practice, Psychotherapy and Parenting enables me to support parents and children to navigate challenges, improving relationships and enhance communication, that may occur due to life events such as divorce, grief, challenging behaviours from the child. This approach is highly regarded for supporting young people who have experienced developmental trauma and their families.

Trauma, stress, anxiety and depression are all experiences held in the body. Only a small amount is cognitive 鈥� in the mind. Yet we disconnect with our bodies, which blocks healing. I will work with you to become more aware of your body, facilitating a transformative healing process.

Are you a parent/carer who has discovered your child is neurodiverse? Are you struggling to support them whilst managing your own feelings? I have experience in supporting parent/carers to explore their feelings without judgement, and find ways to support their child by understanding their needs, bring regulation and fostering unity to the relationship.

Are you a young person or adult struggling to understand your diagnoses and the impact it has on you and your behaviours? I will support you by helping you to understand your diagnoses, the feelings that may surface, and your behaviours, creating a 鈥渕anual鈥� based upon an understanding of how your brain processes, reacts and prioritises. You will be able to let go of those entrenched behaviours that no longer serve you.

Using a holistic approach, I will listen sensitively to you whilst working alongside you in a safe, empathic, confidential, and non-judgemental environment. Together we will work collaboratively, as you become aware of your body鈥檚 internal source of wisdom, to allow for healing and build resilience.

Alongside my private practice, I also work as a school counsellor.

The foundation to providing therapeutic healing, is the relationship between the counsellor and client. It can be the most important relationship a person can have, to understand themselves and start the journey to make the changes needed, to become your authentic self and restore harmony back into your body, mind and life.

I offer you a free 20 min telephone consultation to discuss any questions you may have. If you would like to go ahead, then we can book your first session either in person at my practice, by telephone or online.
