I am currently not accepting new clients.

I am a Clinical Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Counselling Supervisor.

I work with adults experiencing emotional pain and distress due to unbearable anxiety, depression, shame, unhappy marriage, compulsive behaviours and attachment issues.

I offer a safe, non-judgmental, anti-discriminatory service to people of all cultural backgrounds, religious beliefs, sexualities, disability, etc., including LGBTQ and non-binary individuals.

I am a specialist neurodivergent-affirming practitioner, working with ADHD and Autistic adults, with and without a formal diagnosis.

About me

I hold an MA in Clinical Counselling from the University of Chester. I have worked as a Clinical Counsellor within an NHS Psychological Therapies Service for several years while delivering a private practice.

My background is in the Performing Arts. I lectured in Contemporary Dance before becoming a High School Teacher. Working through my own adverse childhood experiences and supporting students in a pastoral capacity led me to a career in counselling, which is both rewarding and life-enhancing for me.

How I work

My counselling service is personal to you and the therapeutic relationship we create together. I listen with the aim of understanding how your experiences impact your life, without making assumptions or trying to fit you into a formula. I am an interactive therapist; I will be in there with you, without getting in the way of your thoughts, processes, and insights. You will feel supported and held by me as your confident companion through the more painful aspects of the therapeutic process. I will be your ally, as you connect with feelings you may have been avoiding or felt too difficult to explore or examine on your own.
