Want to explore what's brought you to therapy in a safe, compassionate, non-judgemental setting? I'm an Integrative psychotherapist - the essence of my practice is to work with you transparently and with warmth, empathy, humour and gentle challenge.  Perhaps you’re struggling - feeling alone and isolated.  Maybe you’re overwhelmed, depressed, burnt out or anxious.  It could be that what you’re experiencing isn’t any of these - maybe you don't feel yourself and you don’t know why.  If you’re experiencing any of these feelings, sharing your burden through counselling can help.

Welcome — I’m Amy, a trauma-informed psychotherapist with over 10 years’ experience supporting adults through trauma, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or repeating patterns that no longer make sense, therapy can offer a space to slow things down and understand what’s really going on. I help clients make sense of their inner world, reduce emotional distress, and create meaningful, lasting change. My style is warm, collaborative, and gently direct — supportive without being vague.

I am a warm, friendly person and a good listener. I have a very empathic understanding and vast experiences from my own personal life. This has shaped me to be the person I am today. Things from our childhoods and certain traumas, can have us acting out behaviours that can be damaging to us. I have experience working with relationship breakdowns, alcohol addiction, depression, anxiety and self harm. I have worked with adolescents and adults of all disabilities. I've worked a great deal with confidence building and low self-esteem. I can help you recognise these behaviours and what triggers them.

Living with OCD and low self-esteem can feel exhausting. You might find yourself caught up in OCD rituals or compulsive behaviours, unable to enjoy the things you once loved. On the outside, you put on a brave face, but inside you may be fighting a quiet battle of fear, self-doubt, and constant self-criticism. It can feel as though no one truly understands — leaving you lonely, ashamed, and searching for the right support. Therapy for OCD and low self-esteem can help you find relief, rebuild confidence, and begin moving toward the life you want.

Do you feel lost in a relationship, or struggling to find yourself after it has ended? You may have spent years keeping the peace, putting your needs aside, or staying quiet to avoid conflict, and now feel overwhelmed, unsure of yourself, or emotionally drained. If you know something needs to change but don’t know where to start, counselling can help you begin to make sense of what you’ve been through and start rebuilding your confidence and self-worth.

Problems are personal, bereavement, depression, stress, relationship breakdowns and anxiety can all feel unbearable and isolating. The reasons for seeking counselling or psychotherapy are as unique and varied as we are. Sometimes we have an idea of what is annoying or upsetting us. Sometimes we struggle to understand issues that darken our days. We might enter a cycle of blame or self-loathing in which we get lost, finding it difficult to move forwards in our lives.

If you’re investigating psychotherapists right now, it’s likely something in your life isn’t working. It may be that you’re struggling with feelings of depression, anxiety or low self-esteem. Perhaps you’re having difficulties in your relationships, or your work is not fulfilling you. You might be carrying painful memories from the past that you’re unable to let go of and these experiences are now preventing you from leading the life you wish for yourself. Perhaps your coping mechanisms are not working or have become destructive, or maybe you feel there is something more to life, but you don't know what that something is.

I work with women at transitional stages in life: leaving home, becoming a parent or empty nester, changing career or retiring, living with illness or disability, experiencing bereavement or the end of a relationship. You might feel that you don’t know yourself any more, that you are overwhelmed, filled with anxiety for the future. A major life event might have smashed to pieces the world you thought you knew. Your sleep is affected, you no longer feel joy, hope, peace or security. Life changes can leave us feeling lost, frightened, and struggling. I know how hard it is when we no longer know who we are or see the way forward.

Welcome to your safe space for Healing and Self-Discovery. Life has a way of bringing old wounds to the surface, often in ways we don’t recognise at first. The patterns we repeat in relationships, the emotions that feel overwhelming, and the deep need for control can all be traced back to experiences from our past.
