I offer individual Adults, Couples and Relationship Counselling in Stirling and online. I offer a calm, compassionate, safe space to explore what brings you to therapy, including anxiety, depression, menopause, feeling stuck, relationship difficulties, we work at a pace that feels right for you, without pressure. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure where to start. Shaped by my lived experience of late-diagnosed dyslexia and ADHD, I have a particular interest in supporting late-diagnosed or self-identifying neurodivergent clients, couples navigating difference and communication challenges.
My work is grounded in Transactional Analysis, a relational approach that helps us understand how early experiences shape the ways we think, feel, and respond in the present. For those seeking an alternative approach, Equine Assisted Psychotherapy is available in Strathyre, combining therapeutic work with the presence of horses in a natural setting.
If you’ve been feeling unseen, overwhelmed, or are seeking support with anxiety, relationship difficulties, questions around identity, or a desire for deeper self-understanding, I offer a safe, attuned, and non-judgemental space. Together, we can explore what’s coming up for you gently, allowing change to unfold at a pace that feels right for you.

During your first session, we will explore what brought you to therapy. I work with Transactional analysis, which provides a framework to help us understand how our past experiences can shape our current behaviour and the way we interact with others. This self awareness can help us make positive changes in our lives and relationships.
