I welcome anyone seeking help with their challenges. I understand what it is to face different challenges from my own personal experience, but also know that good therapy can really help. Whether you want to process grief, find a way out of anxiety or depression, resolve relational issues or anything else we can work together to find help and healing. You might want to be solution focused and engage in short term therapy or perhaps you know you need more time and space to explore the issues in longer term therapy.

We can all struggle with our relationships, both sexually & emotionally, and talking about these problems can be particularly daunting. These struggles can take many forms, ranging from conflict difficulties, marital problems, pain during intercourse, a lack of desire, erectile dysfunction, sexual identity, childhood trauma affecting our adult relationships and many others. Taking the first step to seek out therapy is a difficult one, but one that could help to break the cycle we are currently playing out. I provide the same warmth and care to all members of society. LGBTQ+, kink and fetish friendly.

I offer CBT, Relationship (Couples) Counselling and ADHD Support to individuals and couples, delivered with a warm, calm and compassionate focus. I can provide counselling face-to-face, online or whilst walking outdoors.

Are you struggling with a current issue, past trauma or on-going difficulties and looking for a safe therapeutic relationship to support you? I can work alongside you whilst you tend to emotional wounds and grow self-compassion. You may bring awareness to your internal processes and how these affect your relationship with yourself and others. You may feel less stuck in repetitive patterns and behaviours. Psychotherapy can be a place to grow a sense of inner intuition and develop the connection between mind and body. I offer an empathic, warm and non-judgmental space for you to explore whatever is happening in your life.

Welcome, I am an experienced and accredited Psychotherapist (CBT, EMDR) and Supervisor (CBT). Depression, Anxiety & Trauma can often lead people to feel stuck and lose their sense of self.

Through the therapeutic work I deliver I hope to offer you just that. I will be alongside you, value and encourage your contributions, and aim to empower you to bring about change that is meaningful to you. I have a warm and adaptive style and would tailor the therapy to you.

I specialize in trauma-informed therapy, recognizing how abuse and neglect can deeply impact the mind, emotions, and nervous system. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, or more complex mental health challenges, trauma-informed care is essential for healing.
My approach focuses on understanding relational patterns shaped by past trauma. We’ll explore how current triggers connect to past experiences, helping you reframe memories in a way that promotes healing. This process allows you to access difficult emotions and integrate them in a healthy way.

I specialise with the LGBT+ community, including their family and friends. I can offer a non-judgemental, gentle, accepting confidential space for you to share your issues and concerns, knowing you will not be rejected or discriminated against. I have lived experience of transgender identities, as my son is transgender. I have witnessed the high mental health conditions, suicidal ideation, including self-harm, and loss faced by LGBT+ individuals that I have counselled, along with the hurdles my son has encountered during his transition. I would like to walk with you along your pathway, and consider myself privileged to do so.

I am an Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapists based in Bristol and online. I work relationally which means creating a warm, honest relationship where you feel comfortable to be yourself and explore what is really going on for you.
We can often carry around grief, shame, or self-doubt that has been built up over a time… this often doesn’t belong to us… instead it has been given by family, relationships, society, culture etc… and can result in unhealthy behaviours/relationships. Through therapy we can untangle what is ours from what belongs to others and give a voice to the authentic self hidden within!

If you are like most people, you are probably considering therapy because you want to change something. This might be the way you feel or behave; it might be how you believe other people see you, or how you see yourself. It might be things you think about or dwell upon, or the way you get on (or don’t) with others. Whatever it is, individual therapy provides a space to talk about what it is you want to change and to learn how to bring that change about. A space that is safe, confidential and non-judgemental. As your therapist I see myself as someone who can support you on all aspects of your life journey.
