I work with people who feel overwhelmed by the demands of life and are looking for support to regain a sense of balance and clarity. Many of my clients are parents and carers of neurodivergent children, though I also support individuals experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, and life challenges. Often they are capable and caring people who have been managing for a long time but are starting to feel emotionally drained.
They want a safe and understanding space to talk, along with practical support to reduce stress, strengthen resilience, and feel more like themselves again.
I provide trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming counselling experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, grief, relationship strain and life transitions. With a Master of Counselling and lived insight into caregiving, I integrate CBT, ACT and strengths-based approaches to help you build practical coping strategies, emotional steadiness & sustainable resilience
If you’re carrying more than most people see, you don’t have to do it alone. Therapy offers space to slow down, untangle what feels overwhelming, and reconnect with yourself. Whether you’re navigating stress, identity shifts or ongoing responsibility, support is available. When you’re ready, I welcome you to reach out.
