Perhaps you’re feeling sad, depressed, or anxious.
I'm a fully UKCP-registered Psychotherapeutic counsellor working face-to-face in Bristol. I hold a Diploma in Humanistic and integrative Counselling gained from BCPC. I also draw from psychodynamic theory (how the past affects the present) to help my clients understand themselves on a deep level - A process of making the unconscious conscious.

My work has been with those who have experienced significant loss in their lives, as well as those with issues such as addiction, depression, anxiety, and problems in their relationships.
What brings you to counselling could be any number of reasons: You may have experienced the loss of a loved one; perhaps your life is in such chaos you can no longer see the forest for the trees; or, you may simply wish to look at yourself and your patterns of behaviour in a clearer light. What I offer is a space for you to come to terms with your life, free of judgement, so that you can live it to the fullest.

I support people presenting with a range of issues including; Anxiety, depression, PTSD, complex PTSD, low self confidence, grief and addiction.
Are you struggling with anxiety, stress, anger or low mood? I am an experienced and passionate psychotherapist. I hold a robust space in which we target and process the source of distress. What I practice is not just ‘talk therapy’, I use powerful, evidence based protocols to help people into their calm, confident, playful and most integrated self. I can help you find structure and stability when things feel chaotic. Therapy can help when it feels like no one around you understands what it’s like to be you and when the way you feel makes no sense. If this resonates and you would like to start making changes please do get in touch.
