Many of my clients grew up feeling unseen or unheard — carrying childhood wounds, family dysfunction, or old patterns that still shape their lives today. Whatever issue has brought you to search for a therapist, I believe the heart of therapy is the relationship itself. When you feel truly seen and accepted, something shifts — old patterns soften, trust grows, and real change becomes possible.
I offer psychotherapeutic counselling to adults in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire. My style is down-to-earth, compassionate, and gently challenging. I use Transactional Analysis as my core approach, through a trauma-informed lens, to help clients make sense of the patterns that shape their lives — and to find freedom to choose differently.
I appreciate it can be difficult to take that first step, so I offer an initial free 20-minute consultation over the phone or on Zoom where we can have an informal chat, you can ask me any questions you have and decide if we are a good fit - there is no obligation to book a session afterwards.

I work with people who are feeling anxious or carrying the weight of past or current family and relationship struggles. In our first sessions, we'll take things at your pace, explore what's been going on, and create a plan to support your healing. Many people begin to feel lighter and more hopeful within a few weeks, with steady progress from there.

I use Transactional Analysis (TA) as a method of therapy. TA is great for people who want to understand WHY they feel, think, or behave the way they do - it gives a clear map of how childhood "scripts" shape adult life. I have completed additional specialist trauma training, so will always approach the work from a trauma-focused perspective.
