Are you in mental distress, anxious, depressed or just not coping? Whether you are clear about the causes or not, I can help. In our fast moving busy lives, events can leave us overwhelmed at times which impacts negatively on our mental wellbeing.

If so, you need effective counselling!

Online, outdoor and face-to-face. AuDHD. “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself, just as I am, then I can change.” - Carl Rogers. Are you feeling stuck? Anxious? Overwhelmed?

How Can I help? It can be really hard to find someone you can talk to about difficult thoughts and emotions that are bothering you and making life a struggle. It’s not easy to take that first step towards sorting out the problems that are making life hard. Seeing a Counsellor can be that 'first step'. Talking to a Counsellor is very different to talking to a friend or a relative. A Counsellor won't try to give you advice and won't expect you to listen to their problems. The focus of the session is on helping you to explore thoughts and feelings around what is troubling you at your pace, without judgement.

Have you been having a harder time lately? Are you experiencing a new life transition where you’re not as happy as you had hoped? Or possibly you are looking to make a change in your relationships, work, or daily routine but you’re feeling stuck and unmotivated. Regardless of the specific challenge that has brought you to start therapy, you do not have to go through this journey alone. Therapy can help you accomplish your goals in an environment that is safe and non-judgmental.

For me, Psychology is about making a difference to people's lives, no matter how big the current difficult that they are experiencing; and to support them in reaching their goals. I enjoy working with people with physical health difficulties who may be struggling to adjust to a new diagnosis, or change in symptom. I also enjoy supporting people to recognise what they are already doing well and how this can help them. I enjoy working with children and adults.

I understand that you may be feeling overwhelmed, unsafe, anxious of without hope. I want to assure you that it is possible not to feel like this and that you do not have to face the journey of change alone, as help is avaliable. I believe everyone deserves to live a life that is valued. I would be privileged to work with you on this courageous journey to achieve inner peace.

Many people seek counselling for varying reasons, usually because of issues faced in our daily life which feel challenging or uncomfortable. We may feel stuck, sad, low or confused by an issue happening now or in the past. Perhaps relationships with family, friends or work colleagues feel difficult and awkward to navigate but you don’t quite know the reasons why.

Hello! Most difficulties come and go but sometimes some just linger around for longer and make daily living unbearable. If you need to talk. I can help. I will provide you with person-centred, support. In a confidential, non judgmental, and safe space. You will feel listened to, you will develop the skills required to explore your situation, and to make informed decisions about the form of support that works for you. I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and other holistic techniques to help people manage depression, anxiety and other difficulties.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, having trouble sleeping and remaining focused on tasks? Or do you need to talk about a bereavement or a loss or is there something else on your mind? I am a qualified and experienced psychotherapist offering a safe, confidential space without any judgement. Whatever brings you to therapy, we can spend the time talking through this.

Are you feeling stressed, lost, confused or anxious? These feelings may be a result of a traumatic event, pressures from work, family difficulties, addictions, obsessions or trauma. With busy lives, responsibilities and often with others depending on us, we often dismiss our feelings or fail to understand why we feel, the way we do. I offer a safe place where we can focus on you and we will work together using a therapeutic model that meets your needs. I can offer flexible appointments that fits in with your schedule and if you work shifts we can offer flexible sessions.

Do you feel like you are going around in circles, struggling to find solutions to recurrent difficulties or unhealthy patterns? Are you struggling to overcome a difficult life event or series of events from your past? Do you feel bogged down by day-to-day stressors, or demands in your work or home life? Do you feel particularly anxious or low in mood? Do you feel misunderstood or frustrated by your circumstances? Do you just want someone to listen to how you feel? Someone who will work with you to support you to understand the difficulties you are having and develop strategies to break free from the weight of the emotional baggage?

I help people who have been struggling with moderate/severe levels of stress, depression or anxiety so that you can quickly go from a place of fear, hopelessness and desperation to one of calm, relaxation and inner peace. The only problem is you've been treated poorly by past mental health professionals, tried a million things before which haven't worked and are starting to believe that you cannot be fixed... Unlike most traditional methods, the intensive holistic therapeutic programme (IHTP) targets all aspects of your life; past, present and future so that you can experience life truly free from mental illness - forever.

Welcome to my profile, I understand just how difficult and challenging life can be at times, it may be a strained or broken relationship, family problems or self-esteem issues holding you back, a bereavement, depression, anxiety or work stress. Just talking through your worries and problems can really help. I offer a supportive, non-judgemental space where you are listened to, in an atmosphere of calm and respect that is confidential. Together we can unravel your thoughts and feelings about the past and present to bring a new insight and clarity to your situation, enabling you to move towards a more positive future and wellbeing.

Facing difficult times in life can be very isolating and debilitating. Going to therapy can offer you a space to process your emotions in a unique environment where by you can explore them through a process of connecting with yourself. This can help you find the way forward that's best for you and in a way that everyday life doesn't give space for due to the overwhelming amount of external influences and expectations.
