As an integrative therapist, I create a warm, accepting space where transformation becomes possible. Drawing from my personal journey and professional expertise, I blend person-centred, psychodynamic, and behavioural approaches to support your unique path to healing. My practice is built on the belief that every person's experience is valid and worthy of understanding.

I offer a collaborative therapeutic relationship where you can explore your challenges without judgment, whether they're personal, professional, or somewhere in between. My integrative approach means we can draw from various therapeutic tools and techniques, adapting our work together as your needs evolve.

Begin your journey with a complimentary 15-minute consultation. If we feel we're a good match, you can experience a full 50-60 minute session. 

I believe that counselling should be both accessible and delivered in the right environment for meaningful change.

• My online sessions remain at £55, offering a consistent and flexible option if you prefer to talk from the comfort of your own space.

• Face-to-face sessions are priced at £65, which includes the use of a calm, private and thoughtfully designed space right in the heart of Skipton.

The room has been chosen to support the counselling process – quiet, comfortable, and confidential. It’s also easy to reach, with nearby car parks and just a short walk from Skipton’s rail and bus services.

Whether we meet online or in person, my aim is to provide a safe, respectful and professional space where you can talk, reflect and work through whatever’s on your mind.

My experience has taught me that everyone deserves a space to be heard and understood, regardless of their circumstances. Whether you're facing life transitions, personal challenges, or seeking growth, I provide a supportive environment where you are able to express yourself without judgement. My approach is person-centred, integrative, and relational, tailored to meet your unique needs. By blending techniques from humanistic, psychodynamic, and behavioural therapies, I create a personalised treatment plan designed for optimal effectiveness. 

My journey to becoming a therapist has been shaped by both personal and professional experiences. Through caring for a parent with dementia and navigating burnout from corporate HR work, I've gained a deep understanding of life's challenges and the transformative power of therapy. My approach draws from both person-centred and integrative therapy, which means our work together will be shaped by what feels right for you. Having transitioned from a career in HR, I deeply understand the complexities of professional life, burnout, and the courage it takes to make meaningful changes.

I believe therapy isn't about being "fixed" - it's about understanding yourself better and finding your own path forward. Sometimes that means exploring difficult emotions, other times it's about discovering new perspectives or ways of being.

It is really important you find the right therapist for you, this is why I offer a free 15-20 minute consultation so you can explore how therapy might help, what your key challenges are and determine whether or not you would like to explore therapy further.  Following this consultation and if you decide you wish to proceed, you'll be offered a first paid session, which will establish your goals and or key issues you want support with as well as providing a safeguarding assessment called a PHQ-9 which we'll use a various points throughout your therapy to determine how you are doing.
