Relationships difficult? Feeling lonely or lost? Tired of feeling less than? You need compassion and understanding, not another set of instructions that work for others. Therapy can help you change how you feel, live your potential and move on from past experiences. It can be difficult to find a space to reflect and I offer a secure, non-judgemental, confidential environment, where together we can find that space. I am very patient and understand that taking that first step towards counselling, and beginning to make changes can be very difficult and I'll do my very best to support you. PACFA, BACP & ACTO Memberships.

My goal is to create a space where children, young people and parents feel heard and supported from the first conversation. I believe every child can be understood in the context of relationships and environment. Rather than asking, 'What’s wrong?', I’m interested in understanding what a child is communicating through their emotions and behaviour. In session, we build strengths, deepen understanding and develop practical strategies that support change. Whether you’re seeking support for your child, yourself or family, I aim to provide a warm, practical and compassionate space where you feel safe to explore challenges.

Hi! I’m Rhiannon, and I work with folks wanting to understands how early experiences shape the way we move through the world. You might be a person who's spent years prioritising everyone else's needs while yours went unmet. Perhaps you struggle to trust your own judgment, find yourself constantly scanning for signs that someone's upset with you, or feel guilty whenever you try to set a boundary. Any of these experience could show up as body tension, disconnection, or a knot in your stomach when conflict arises.

Many of us feel like we are not good enough, overwhelmed by love, or afraid to be truly seen. We may long to connect with our partners but fear rejection, feel intense anger, or find ourselves constantly pleasing others to feel worthy. These struggles can leave us feeling anxious, disconnected, or stuck. But these feelings aren’t who we are — they’re parts of us trying to protect us from pain or danger, shaped by our past. These parts of us are trying to keep us safe, even if their methods feel overwhelming. I can provide opportunities to gently explore, connect to and understand these parts and their underlaying pain.
