A warm welcome to all Adults and Couples. I have postgraduate qualifications in Relationship Psychotherapy and Counselling for individual adults. We are all different and affected by different experiences in our life, which in turn can impact on the whole of ourself and our relationships. The impact can show up in symptoms such as; anxiety, depression, anger, addictions, self-harm, relationship difficulties, self-belief/confidence issues, suicidal thoughts, inflammation issues in our bodies. I will provide a safe space, to help you understand what you're experiencing, to create long term change and growth for your future.

Are you here because life feels overwhelming? Struggle with often not feeling good enough? Overthink and people-please which leaves you feeling alone, stressed and anxious? I specialise in supporting women who are wanting to learn to manage and overcome such difficulties. Specifically, I specialise in trauma therapy as I find that those of us who face these struggles, often have painful past experiences and past traumas that we carry with us. I’m here to help you gain new insights on how & why such experiences may be impacting your present; learn to recognise your triggers, develop coping skills and break free from limiting beliefs.

As a person-centered counsellor, I believe that we all have the potential to lead a fulfilling life. For some of us though, traumatic and difficult life experiences can leave us feeling stuck, trapped and hopeless.

Life can be hard. We can feel anxious, depressed, confused or alone. We may struggle to find happiness in ourselves, and our relationships with others. We may be trying to come to terms with loss or abuse. There may be things from the past that still trouble us, and it might not be easy to discuss our problems with friends or family. It can be a relief to talk in confidence with someone who will truly listen and see things from our own point of view. Someone who can support us while we make sense of our feelings and work with us at our own pace towards finding our own solutions. This is what I will provide for you.

Making the first step and looking for a counsellor to work with can feel scary and overwhelming. It’s hard to know what to say or what to expect, especially if you have not had counselling before. Building a safe and trusting relationship with your counsellor is important. It can take time to do this, but it is important that you feel comfortable enough with them in the beginning to start on that journey. I offer a safe space, where you will be truly listened to without expectation or judgement. This allows my clients to feel comfortable in being open and honest so that they can get the most out of their sessions.

Female Counsellors

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as 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 ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

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—both men and women—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.
