About me and my therapy practice

I'm interested in you: your experience, your world and the ways they might have made you feel stuck or feel like something's not right. I believe that the world can separate us from our deepest form of support, which lies in our relationships to ourself and others. I want to accompany you on a journey to recovering that support, by reconnecting with your self and your world.

I'm a caring person with a background in academia, creative practice and the NHS, and I am a professionally qualified Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. I have worked with a wide variety of experiences and suffering, including feeling stuck, isolated, worthless, depressed and anxious. I welcome and have experience working with a diverse range of identities.

Please do reach out for an initial conversation, so that you can get a feel for what it would be like working with me and me with you.
