I work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, overwhelm, grief, loss, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and major life transitions. Many clients come to counselling feeling stuck, disconnected from themselves, struggling with past experiences or finding it difficult to cope with life's challenges. Together, we explore what is happening for you in a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space, helping you develop greater self-understanding, resilience and confidence while finding a way forward that feels meaningful and authentic.
I am a trauma-informed counsellor with over 14 years' counselling experience and particular expertise in trauma, abuse, grief, loss and wellbeing. I also have specialist knowledge of baby loss and Womb Twin Survivors. My pluralistic approach is collaborative and tailored to your individual needs, goals and circumstances.
Reaching out for support can feel like a big step. My aim is to offer a warm, compassionate and welcoming space where you feel heard, understood and supported. Whether you are facing a specific challenge or simply feel something is not quite right, I would be happy to explore with you whether counselling may be helpful at this time.
