Do you feel something needs to change? CBT can be very effective for common mental health problems. You may be struggling with low self-esteem, anxiety or low mood. These challenges can prevent you from living the life you desire. CBT is a collaborative and evidence-based approach that helps you understand your current challenges and equips you with practical skills to independently manage these issues and achieve your goals. I provide virtual sessions, offering a warm, non-judgmental space for you to begin your journey towards better self-awareness and change.

You may be living with anxiety that feels frightening and out of control. Thoughts race, your body reacts with breathlessness or dizziness, and fear takes over. You might monitor your body or avoid certain places. Reassurance does not help in the long term. What helps is understanding what is happening inside you, so you can feel safe again and regain confidence.

I am a qualified integrative counsellor offering one-to-one therapy to adults in a confidential, compassionate and supportive setting. I believe that counselling is not about being “fixed”, but about being understood. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure why they feel the way they do, and my role is to help you gently explore this in a way that feels safe and contained. My approach is tailored to you, offering a space where you can feel heard, valued, and supported throughout the process. This work is gentle, respectful, and led by your needs and pace. All sessions are confidential.

Whether you are struggling with emotions, relationships or physiological symptoms of anxiety or depression I can offer a safe space to explore these. You may be struggling to understand why things are so difficult, and may be very critical of yourself, thinking you should be coping better. You might have experienced a traumatic event, or always felt that you don't quite fit in, blaming yourself. You might be in a couple or a family unit struggling with arguments or disconnection from each other. You might just want to re-think your values and life goals to shift your future focus to something more rewarding.

I offer psychotherapy and/or hypnotherapy for trauma and anxiety. I understand the exhaustion of pretending to be ‘fine’ when we actually feel like we are falling apart. Trauma isn't always one big event; often, it’s a quiet, persistent hum in the background that shows up like this: Constant anxiety or "wired" nervous system, That nagging voice telling you you’re not good enough, Difficulty trusting in your closest relationships, Addictive patterns or PTSD symptoms that make the world feel unsafe. I know, first hand, the work it takes to heal but it CAN be done and I’m here to help and guide you every step of the way.

I specialise in anxiety, depression, relationship issues, cultural issues, work-related stress, and living with illness. We all face times when we feel confused, stuck or unsure about what to do. During these difficult or uncertain times talking to someone who listens, yet has distance from the issue, can really help. Asking for support is not a sign of weakness. It takes courage to focus on ourselves so that we can find solutions, make changes, and move forwards. I offer compassionate, non-judgmental, confidential yet proactive therapy in a safe and supportive space. I work in the evenings and weekends.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.

Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
