About me and my therapy practice
Growing up, you had to learn to manage on your own. You became independent and self-sufficient, perhaps even successful on the surface — yet underneath you may feel lonely, disconnected, or like you’ve simply drifted through life. Survival got you this far, but now you want more than just coping. You want to feel truly alive and connected.
I offer a safe, confidential space to explore what lies beneath pain, frustration, or disconnection. My approach helps you make sense of your story, strengthen relationships, and live more authentically. I have experience supporting those from boarding school backgrounds, but my work is open to anyone finding life a struggle.
I’m here to listen — without judgement and without rushing you. Therapy with me isn’t about being given answers; it’s about having a space where you can be understood and supported as you find your own way forward. If something in this resonates with you, I’d be glad to hear from you.
Practice description
I offer counselling by online video, telephone and face to face. I am a humanistic counsellor which means that I focus on what's happening in your life in the here and now, although recognising the the past is also important. I believe that each person has the potential to live in an authentic and fulfilling way. Although I am in my senior years I relate well to people of all ages. I have had considerable experience working with young adults as they seek to become more independent and find their place in the world.
