Hi, and thanks for reading.
Reaching out for support can feel daunting, whether you’re a teenager, young adult, or adult. You don’t have to figure everything out on your own. Sometimes having someone to listen, understand, and help you make sense of what you’re experiencing can make all the difference.

Individuals and couples decide to look for therapy for many reasons; stress, anxiety or depression, difficulties in relationships; anything that's stopping them living the life they want. I place importance on helping clients understand the causes, not simply focusing on the symptoms. Ultimately, knowing yourself better is the key to a more fulfilling life, with improved relationships and feeling better within yourself on a day to day basis.

Catriona works with individuals and couples seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships.

There may be a sense that something isn’t quite working, despite insight or effort. Through a reflective and relational approach, she supports clients in making sense of these patterns and moving towards lasting, meaningful change.

Hi, I'm Jo, I'm a qualified counsellor and have many years of experience. I currently work for the NHS as well as in private practice. I understand that sometimes we all need someone to talk to, life can become overwhelming, confusing, or distressing for anyone, for many different reasons. This is where counselling, and I, can be useful. Counselling can be just the place to untangle your thoughts and make sense of what is going on for you, and how you might like it to change. I recognise that everyone is different. We are all individuals, and I therefore believe that therapy should also be unique to you, and your experience.

Our experiences in life can take us away from feeling like our true selves, or we can end up feeling that it isn’t safe to be ourselves. This can end up with us feeling disconnected from ourselves or our lives and living in a way that doesn’t feel aligned to us. We can be left feeling lost, ashamed, confused, dissatisfied, anxious, down, or full of self-loathing.
Through helping you to understand and accept yourself, I hope to help you to build a life that feels aligned and fulfilling to you. My approach is trauma informed, meaning that I understand that sometimes our responses to life can feel confusing.

You are professionally capable and privately running on empty.
Perhaps you are neurodivergent, navigating a world not built for your brain.
Perhaps you are LGBTQIA+, still carrying the cost of years spent not quite fitting. Perhaps you are in a relationship that once felt like home and now feels like a negotiation, 2 capable people who somehow cannot reach each other anymore. You are done performing for each other.
Couple counselling here helps you put the disconnection down & find your way back to each other. You are done being the version of yourself that everyone else finds easier. You are here because something has to change.

Think of me as someone you can talk to about anything—whether you’re feeling stressed, stuck, overwhelmed, or just need to vent. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling like “technically nothing is wrong in my life, but I’m just not happy. Is this really it?”
You might be feeling anxious about the future, unhappy in your relationship, or waiting for a partner to change and realising it’s not happening. Perhaps you’re considering ending your marriage or making a big life change, but the fear of being alone or starting over feels overwhelming. These struggles can leave you feeling anxious, suffocated, taken for granted.

Feeling fed up in your relationships, stuck in the same cycles, or unsure where to turn? Life can easily start to feel like a constant struggle where you're just going through the motions. Therapy can help you feel more in control of your emotions and safely look beneath the surface. My approach focuses on the early patterns and childhood dynamics that keep you stuck today. Together, we’ll focus on what actually matters to you,
helping you build self-respect, set firm boundaries, and stop settling for emotional breadcrumbs.

What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
