About me and my therapy practice
Based in Cheadle Hulme, Greater Manchester, I offer affordable counselling and psychotherapy UK-wide by supporting people both online and in person.
Struggling with anxiety, stress or low mood? Feeling overwhelmed but keeping it quiet? Feeling stuck, lost or just not like yourself? These are some of the problems that I support people with. You don’t have to do it alone, and therapy is a great place to start. The hurt, suffering and trauma that life can hurl at us can feel like a painful and isolating place. It can all feel quite scary at times. That’s why I provide a confidential and welcoming space for you to talk about the issues you’re facing. Whether it’s work stress, your relationships, parenthood, life transitions or finding a whole-life balance, therapy gives you space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with who you really are.
Practice description
I use Transactional Analysis (TA) as a core part of my work – a powerful, practical approach to understanding patterns in how we think, feel and relate to others.
TA helps us untangle:
- Why we feel stuck in certain behaviours
- Where our inner critic comes from
- How early life experiences shape us
- And, importantly, how we can create change
But no two people are the same, so I tailor your therapy to you. I draw on other approaches too, including relational, humanistic and creative techniques, depending on what feels right for you. Some people want a space to talk. Others want tools. Many want both.
What I can help with:
- Stress and burnout
- Anxiety & overthinking
- Low mood & self-esteem
- People-pleasing & boundaries
- Creative blocks & imposter syndrome
- Relationship patterns & communication
- Work stress, perfectionism & self-criticism
- Feeling lost, stuck or disconnected
