What do most of us desire beneath it all?  To feel good, whole and comfortable within ourselves and in the relationships around us. That state of peaceful being resides within all of us but often past traumas and challenging life experiences have shaped who we have become, influencing the story of who we now think we are.  These beliefs often disconnect us from our true, best selves. Trauma happens, and often feelings of shame result. Living our lives wishing bad events never happened leave us feeling powerless but incorporating our past experiences in a way that does not debilitate, permits us to live with them, not ruled by them.

Everyone faces challenges and difficulties. Sometimes these feel too much to sort out on your own. You may be anxious, feel depressed, lonely or stuck in some way. You may have a feeling that something isn't right, or that you keep repeating experiences in relationships you would like to move beyond. Maybe something specific has happened that you need support with. You may be experiencing loss on a number of levels. If so, you are not alone. These experiences are what most people I work with bring to therapy. I would like to explore how I may be able to help.

Do you find yourself struggling with unbreakable patterns, relationship difficulties, feelings of emptiness, or persistent anxiety and depression? Seeking a space to understand these challenges, explore your inner world, and uncover connections between your past and present can lead to valuable insights and growth. Talking to a professional therapist in a private, unbiased environment can provide meaningful relief. It offers the reassurance of being understood, and the opportunity to develop a stronger, more integrated sense of self. I work with people from varied backgrounds, embracing their unique experiences and needs.

Whether you have recently experienced a crisis in life, or are dealing with a more prolonged sense of disillusionment, I offer a compassionate space for you to explore whatever issue brings you to therapy. Beginning to talk about yourself and what you are dealing with may feel new or even unnerving, so I am always mindful to work with you at your own pace. In this process many different issues may come up for you, and through talking together we have an opportunity to explore, reflect upon and understand more fully how and why you feel the way you do.

Choosing to undertake counselling can be daunting but is a brave step towards changing the parts of your life that are no longer serving you well. Together we can examine what holds you back and explore options for moving towards more wholehearted living. ​ I will not give advice, be judgemental or attempt to 'fix' you. I will give you the space to turn your problem over and examine it in the light of your unique perspective, allowing you room to see how you might proceed or understand things in a different way.

You may be here because something in your life feels stuck, painful, or confusing – and you’re ready for change. Perhaps it’s how you feel or behave. Maybe it’s how others see you – or how you see yourself. You might be caught in patterns of overthinking, relationship struggles, or self-doubt. Whatever brings you here, individual therapy offers a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space to explore it. A space to understand what’s going on beneath the surface – and how to move forward. I am registered with the BACP and hold a clinical MSc in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy.

Choosing a therapist can be a stressful process, and it's difficult to decide which kind of therapy to try. Many people find it helpful to work with a therapist who has trained in more than one therapy, who can switch to a different therapy when needed, and who can tailor sessions according to your needs. My 16 years experience in supporting neurodivergent clients (with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia or other difficulties) led me to further training in 2021 in autism, and specialised CBT and ACT for ADHD and emotional regulation problems.
