I am a warm and open therapist. My aim is to understand you in order to help you make sense of and accept yourself and your own life experiences. Using evidenced-based interventions, we will work together to get you unstuck from depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and intense negative emotions.  We will examine behaviours that once protected you and develop strategies to overcome these patterns.

How are you feeling?

You may feel alone, misunderstood, and unfulfilled,

Disconnected from family, friends or work,

Experiencing loss of energy and distraction,

Overwhelmed by anxiety,

Among other things I can support you with:

·         Anxiety and Depression

·         Low self-esteem

·         Bereavement / loss

·         Abuse

·         Trauma

·         Separation / Divorce

·         Physical and emotional health

·         Substance misuse / addictions

I also have many years of experience (and a lot of passion) working with young people, both privately and in sixth form and secondary schools. I hold a deep respect for the difficulties young people can encounter whilst growing up and strive to support them in navigating their way through this often complex period.

I also work successfully with clients who have OCD and BDD.  

I am truly passionate about my work and experience it as a great honour to be part of the journey that people undertake in counselling.

What I can do to help

I will offer you the chance to identify your own resources and strengths, which we can sometimes lose sight of during times of upset and stress. Talking things through can begin to unlock and shift feelings and help you move forward.

The relationship between the client and Counsellor is one of the most important factors for successful therapy. It is important to find a Counsellor with whom a deep relationship can develop. That is why I offer a free initial session, which allows you the time to decide if I am the right Counsellor for you.
