If you are looking for a psychoanalytic psychotherapist who specialises in women's therapy, I have had many years of experience offering psychotherapy to women of all ages and with all emotional difficulties. I have written on body image and provided organisations with presentations on eating disorders: Eating disorders: how to understand, how to help. For over 30 years I have worked with these problems, emotional trauma and personality disorder. I can also help you with a process that can enable you to move forward with life transitions and how you may be able to negotiate change.

Do you feel tender and weighed down by more than words can hold? You may find yourself anxious, stuck, or overwhelmed—caught in the pull of patterns that never seem to end. Maybe you yearn to feel settled in your body, more open in your connections, more alive in your days. You don’t need fixing—you need meeting. To feel safe, witnessed, and held as you touch what lies beneath. You’re ready to trust your own wisdom, soften old defences, and step into more truth, clarity, and belonging. You want to return home to yourself.

I see clients online via Zoom and in person in beautiful Bath.
Feeling stuck? Problems that persist and seem resistent to talking therapies often have an unconscious element to them that can be unlocked by hypnosis. Hypnotherapy is not a passive process but a way for the client to take back control of repetitive behaviors and get freedom to "get on with their life". Phobias; anxiety; mental blocks of all kind can all be treated with hypnotherapy. Hypnosis and psychotherapy, can brings deep therapeutic change, relief and release of stuck emotions, unuseful behaviour patterns and problems. Take back control by deciding what messages your deep mind is playing out in your life.

Sessions normally last 90 minutes, either online or in-person.
If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, unresolved trauma, a major life change or simply feeling 'stuck', I can help you feel better, think more clearly and move forward quickly and positively. I believe we're all able to achieve lasting change in our lives, and I'll help you access your own strengths to make the changes you want. Sessions with me involve friendly discussion of your issues, cognitive therapy, Rewind and BWRT techniques where appropriate, and practical strategies for moving forward. We won't dwell too long on the past: instead, I offer solution-focussed help based in the here and now.

Are you struggling with a relationship or juggling the competing demands of your private and professional life? Are you feeling stuck and uncertain about how to fulfil your potential? Have you recently lost someone close to you? I first sought help as a young mother and the benefits were so enormous, I chose to train as a psychotherapist myself. I work one-to-one and with couples, helping you to identify patterns in your relationship with others, and with yourself, and establishing ways of changing those patterns that do not serve you.

I offer a safe and confidential space where you will have the chance to share your problems, your difficult feelings, your pain and your life story. Talking about our life honestly and openly, with an empathic and non-judgemental therapist can be a deeply healing process. Having a space where we can be fully ourselves, where we’re invited to slow down, breathe and investigate our inner world and our emotions is necessary, today, more than ever. We live busy lives and for many, it is difficult to stop and notice, most of the time, what is going on inside us. As we reconnect to our feelings and our essence there is an immediate sense

Finding a therapist can feel like a minefield. Ultimately you probably want to find someone to talk to that you feel comfortable with, and who can of course help. I understand how confusing and nerve-wracking it can be to consider therapy and take the first step. I provide clients with a supportive space in which to unpack their challenges. I will help you to get a better handle on what is happening for you. I have experience of working with anxiety, depression, significant loss and bereavement, childhood and midlife trauma, as well as difficulty understanding feelings.

I offer in-person sessions from peaceful and comfortable therapy rooms in central Bath and Chippenham as well as online
At certain times in life, we may find ourselves struggling, feeling overwhelmed, anxious, confused, stuck, numb, or low. These experiences can stretch our capacity to cope and leave us feeling far from the life we want to lead. Reaching out for support in such moments is both understandable and courageous. You may be navigating relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, grief and loss, or the lasting effects of trauma. Or perhaps you're not quite sure what's wrong, only that things don’t feel right. Whatever you're experiencing, it’s valid, and we can explore it together.
