I understand that life does not always go the way we expect, and my motivation for training as a counsellor came from wanting to provide others with the professional support we all need from time to time.

Sometimes, it is hard to make sense of things yourself or gain perspective from talking to friends and family. Taking time to tell your story can bring clarity, healing and empowerment. With empathy and compassion at the heart of it, I aim to create a warm, safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, working together at a pace that suits you.

Throughout my psychotherapeutic work, I have gained experience working with people struggling with a wide range of mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, low mood, anger, low self-worth/self-esteem, loss, grief, stress, and relationship difficulties. 

I am an integrative therapist, drawing upon different therapeutic models when working with my clients. My roots are person-centred, but I also use practical models from transactional analysis, interventions from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and insights from attachment theory and psychodynamic counselling to explore past experiences and relationships that impact the present.

Our work would largely promote your independence and increase your sense of empowerment. The key to successful therapy is rooted in a genuine and trusting relationship that allows you to open up and explore your challenges.

When you get in touch, I will offer a free fifteen-minute telephone call to discuss any questions you may have about the counselling process before making your decision to proceed. If you want to go ahead at that point, we can arrange an initial session. I always recommend having an initial session to ‘see if the shoe fits’. Feeling comfortable and understood is the most essential aspect for counselling to work its best for you.

If you decide to proceed, we will arrange an initial session of up to 50 minutes, during which we will discuss the reasons you have come for therapy, share information, and decide whether working together would be the best fit for you.

If we decide to work together, we will agree on the most convenient time and begin working in weekly 50-minute or fortnightly sessions (longer sessions available when fortnightly).

Life can be full of challenges and unexpected turns, and at times it can feel overwhelming to face them alone. My motivation for becoming a therapist comes from a strong belief in the power of having a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

Sometimes it’s hard to make sense of things on your own, or to gain clarity by talking with friends or family. Therapy offers the opportunity to pause and reflect, bringing understanding, healing, and a greater sense of empowerment.

With empathy and compassion, I provide a warm, non-judgmental space where you can feel truly heard and understood, working together at a pace that feels right for you.

The heart of our work will be building a genuine, trusting relationship, which I believe is the key to meaningful and lasting progress. My aim is to help you gain clarity, confidence, and independence, so you feel empowered to navigate life’s challenges.

I am an integrative therapist, with my work rooted in person-centred therapy. I also incorporate attachment theory, psychodynamic counselling, and polyvagal theory to explore how past experiences and nervous system responses may be shaping the present.

Alongside this, I draw on practical tools and insights from Transactional Analysis (TA) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to support you in finding new ways of coping and creating meaningful change.

I have experience supporting people with a wide range of concerns, including:

Anxiety, OCD and panic

Depression and low mood

Stress and overwhelm

Low self-esteem and self-worth

Anger

Loss and grief

Relationship difficulties
