Each of us gets thrown off balance at times by events and by difficult feelings and thoughts. Each of us benefits from, and deserves, close attention and support. As an experienced counsellor, I provide a quiet, safe space in an often disorderly world. You might be anxious, stressed, sleepless, fearful, sad, overwhelmed and/or feeling stuck. Together we can explore, understand and manage your concerns. By helping you understand your motivations, values and style of relating, I can also help with your professional development and confidence. I work in private practice in Hadleigh (Suffolk) and Sudbury. I also work online.
As a Psychodynamic Counsellor, working with individuals aged 18 and above, my approach uses the counselling relationship to explore your experiences, feelings and behaviour (conscious and unconscious), at a pace that is comfortable for you. This will help you make better sense of why you think and feel the way you do and how to make changes that last.
Approaching a counsellor can be daunting. You might be wondering if therapy will help or curious about different approaches to counselling. Perhaps you would like to know if I am someone that you could feel comfortable with and if I will be a good fit for you. Attending an introductory, 50 minute session (fee applies), is a beneficial, safe way forward.

Many of us will feel anxious and depressed at times but if these feelings linger and impede our lives, that's the moment to seek help. During our sessions we'll explore key events in your life and your feelings linked to those, making links to your past and wishes for the future. Symptoms are likely to lift as you develop, with my help, new insights, confidence and agency.

The psychodynamic approach uses the counselling relationship to explore your experiences, feelings and patterns of behaviours (conscious and unconscious), at a pace that is comfortable for you. This will help you make better sense of why and where you are in your life, why you currently think and feel the way you do and how to make meaningful changes that last.
