About me and my therapy practice

I work with adults who attended boarding school and who may now feel disconnected, self-reliant, or unsure how to express emotion. Therapy helps understand these patterns, reconnect with your feelings, and build more genuine and satisfying relationships.

Many ex-boarders describe feeling as though they had to grow up too soon, leaving parts of themselves behind. In our work, there鈥檚 space to explore how those early adaptations have shaped your life, and to begin meeting yourself with understanding rather than judgment. My approach is gentle, collaborative, and paced to support you in feeling safe enough to open up and experience genuine emotional connection.

If this resonates, you鈥檙e welcome to get in touch to see whether working together feels right for you.

Practice description

I offer counselling by online video, telephone, in-person and offer home visits in the Chichester to Havant area.

I am a humanistic counsellor which means that I focus on what's happening in your life right 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.

When we work together, the focus is on you and your experience. Sessions are a confidential, calm space. Together, we鈥檒l explore your thoughts, feelings, and patterns at a pace that feels safe, helping you gradually uncover a sense of self that is more authentic, grounded, and yours.
