Hi, I’m Tara.

I am a compassionate and down to earth person, who came into counselling later in life, bringing a wealth of life experience. I believe the value I bring is a real awareness, empathy and understanding of the challenges that life brings. I am committed to providing a non-judgemental space, where we can work together at a pace that feels right for you.

I believe counselling can support you in healing from difficult experiences. I can offer a safe space to allow you to feel comfortable to talk, and tell your story freely without judgement. I hope you can feel you can be 'you' and begin to understand yourself better or make sense of your experiences, and on your terms consider any change.

I know it may be hard to start counselling, and maybe you don’t know what to expect? You are not alone. To take the first step, send me a short message or give me a call and we can discuss what you would like to get from counselling, and any concerns you may have about about getting started. It is important you feel comfortable with the counsellor you have chosen.

I have over 20 years experience, as a healthcare professional working with  Neurodiverse children and their parents/carers, so  have an understanding of the unique joys and challenges. I have lived experience both through work and personally of ADHD and Autism.

I look forward to talking to you.

I provide a professional, confidential and safe space to work with you to support on a range of difficulties, including:

Anxiety and depression.

Improving confidence and self-esteem.

Understanding and coping with peri- and menopause.

Relationships.

I provide both short and long term counselling. I provide counselling online and also telephone counselling.

I am a fully qualified counsellor trained in the person-centred approach, so it's not my job tell you what to do, however it is my job to ensure you feel comfortable enough to talk to me, and I will work with you to explore your own path at your pace.

My aim is to provide a safe, genuine space of trust and respect, and I will ensure you feel empowered and at ease during our sessions.
