My 'Online' availability is every Wednesday from 9am to 12pm and 2pm to 7pm.

However, under certain circumstances, I am also available for Face to Face and further online sessions, out of these hours, on the understanding that days and times may well be very specific but also possibly varied for you - so I will do my best to work with you.

I am trained first and foremost as a Person-Centred Counsellor, with an integrative Cognitive Behavioural influence that supports and informs my practice. This foundation allows me to combine a deeply relational approach with flexible, evidence-based insight when helpful.

My background in physical health and somatic bodywork spans over 25 years, during which I鈥檝e worked one-to-one with clients to help them understand and reconnect with their bodies. This experience has deeply shaped how I listen 鈥� not only to what is spoken, but also to what may be held and expressed physically.

In therapy, I aim to create a warm, grounded, and supportive space where you can explore what feels difficult or unclear at your own pace. I see the process as a collaborative relationship built on empathy, honesty, and mutual respect.

At times, I may invite gentle attention to bodily sensations or emotional shifts that arise during our work, as these can offer valuable insight and integration. 

My intention is always to support you in developing a deeper connection to yourself 鈥� fostering self-understanding, healing, and growth, and empowering you to move forward in a way that feels authentic and true to who you are.

I often ask myself the same question that Carl Rogers, founder of Person-centred Therapy, once asked.

鈥淗ow can I provide a relationship which my client may use for their own personal growth?鈥�

My role is to create an environment that encourages openness 鈥� a space where you feel truly heard and understood. Within this relationship, I aim to help you connect with your inner strengths and resources, empowering you to make choices and changes that feel right for you.

Whether you are facing specific difficulties or seeking a deeper connection with yourself, I am here to walk alongside you on your journey.

Over the years, I鈥檝e worked with clients from many walks of life, each experiencing the complexities of both personal and professional challenges 鈥� the deep-seated thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that we sense but often struggle to articulate or understand.

Anxiety and depression, relationship and family difficulties, and coping with bereavement and loss are some of the powerful and deeply human experiences I have accompanied clients through.

I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to support and guide you as you navigate challenges and move towards greater self-understanding and personal growth.

I strive to build a genuine therapeutic relationship based on empathy, respect, and trust, where you can explore your emotions and experiences freely.

There are no hacks, tips, or quick fixes. Meaningful change often involves leaning into the parts of our lives that feel uncomfortable or difficult to face.

Being real and authentic with clients sometimes means gently challenging existing beliefs or behaviours 鈥� not to criticise, but to create space for growth.

Personal development often happens outside our comfort zones 鈥� sometimes, that鈥檚 where the real transformation occurs.

I am happy to meet up with you for a free, initial 20 -30 minutes to start by getting to know each other and understanding what brings you to counselling.

This introductory session is a chance for you to see if we are a good fit, in this first instance, and to share anything that is appropriate or you need to bring up, for me to listen and see how I can best support you.

Most of all, it鈥檚 about making sure you feel comfortable and supported as we begin a possible journey together.
