Healing after harm. Reclaim your voice. Rebuild your life. Gentle guidance through deep healing… Specialist Counselling for Narcissistic Abuse (Recovery from Pathological Relationships - Partners, Parents, Children, Workplace) I'm sorry you're experiencing this insidious form of harm! Mine is a Low-Needs Autism, ADHD, Disability & LGBTQI+ Friendly Practice I am a long-term practitioner of Vipassana meditation, Yoga and Mindfulness.
It's important to find a therapist who 'gets it'. Driven by compassion, tried and tested methods, and ethics, my therapy is holistic and very personal to each of my clients. I have a deep personal commitment to being the therapist I couldn't find when I experienced narcissistic abuse. Maybe I can help you?

We'll start with Cognitive Behaviour Therapy to explore your unique situation. If you choose, we can then work through powerful mindfulness practices at a gentle, do-able pace. Using Coaching techniques and ACT, we can explore your strengths & values to remind yourself who you are now, what you want in life and figure out how to get there from here.
