You may feel anxious, low, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns in relationships or in yourself that feel hard to understand or change. You might find yourself overthinking interactions or noticing that, even when life appears “fine” on the outside, something still doesn’t feel right underneath. I offer a calm, confidential space where you don’t have to hold everything together. Together, we can begin to make sense of what you’re experiencing at a pace that feels manageable, without needing to have everything all figured out beforehand.
Before training as a therapist, I worked in the arts in the UK and abroad. This continues to inform my sensitivity to identity, creativity, and the experience of change, transition, and uncertainty in life.
I often work with people who appear to be coping outwardly but feel anxious, stuck, or emotionally exhausted underneath. This can include self-doubt, repeating relational patterns, or a sense of not quite feeling like yourself. You’re welcome to get in touch to arrange a free 15-minute conversation to see whether working together feels like the right fit.

I trained with Avis and came to know her as a deeply sensitive, empathetic, and genuinely curious therapist. She listens with care, is thoughtful and creates a non-judgmental space where people can explore their inner world in all its facets.
