What happened in your childhood? How does it affect you now? I work with adults to overcome childhood/teenage adversities to find their confidence and build self-esteem. You might be feeling anxious, depressed or overwhelmed. It could be feeling unworthy of another person's love, feelings of shame or of being punished for some trust or over trusting other people. Each day can become an internal battle as you feel doubt yourself, maybe loath yourself, just can't get organised and decision leave you exhausted. If this resonates with you, email me or check out my website to book a free 15-minute phone call/zoom chat.

I am an experienced, warm and down to earth counsellor and have worked with many different people bringing a wide range of issues.

Many people come to therapy feeling stuck, uncertain, or disconnected from what truly matters to them. I work with individuals who are searching for clarity, meaning, and a life that reflects their deeper values rather than external expectations. Our work could focus on understanding your inner world, untangling old patterns, and reconnecting with your authentic desires. Therapy with me is a collaborative, reflective process—one that supports you to develop a safer relationship with yourself and others. By coming into alignment through community, with yourself and others life can feel more aligned, purposeful, and joyful.

Therapy is online or in person in a calm environment at Severn House, near Westbury on Trym.
Life can feel like you're barely keeping your head above water when you’re dealing with big changes, uncertainty, or emotional strain. It’s tempting to do nothing, convincing yourself that staying small is the safest option—but deep down, you know it’s not. It just leaves you stuck and alone. These moments creep up, showing as stress, overwhelm, fear, or anxiety that grows and can get too much. You might even notice it physically—the tension, the sleepless nights, the fatigue—or mentally through low mood, anxiety or both, as if your mind is on a loop, replaying the same worries.

We could be left feeling confused, lonely, disconnected from ourselves and unfulfilled in our lives. Naturally, we want to move forward to a place we can be ourselves in the world. Whether it's relationship difficulties, abuse, depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, managing change or stress perhaps even a tough decision, therapy can be a helpful place to gain support.

There are many experiences that can lead us to start therapy. Perhaps you have been experiencing uncomfortable emotions like anxiety / low mood; difficult or traumatic life events or bereavement; find yourself stuck in relational or behavioural patterns that are no longer serving you; or are struggling with the relationship you have with yourself. These are heavy experiences to carry on our own and in doing so, we may feel stuck in a cycle beyond our control. I am here to help you make sense of what you are experiencing, move towards your valued direction / change and support you to reclaim your life.

I welcome anyone who is looking to understand themselves and their coping styles better, and/or is seeking ways to break cycles and gain new skills to help them move forwards in their lives.

I see clients on Monday evenings and Friday mornings, and offer sessions online, enabling you to join from the comfort of your own home.
I have over 10 years of experience working with adults to overcome mental health problems. CBT is an ideal treatment for those who are looking to change, whether that be to make some changes in the way in which you think about things, or some changes in the way in which you do things day to day. CBT can also help clients come to an understanding of 'why', E.G. what is it about you, your experiences & vulnerabilities which perhaps help explain why you struggle. This is often validating & helpful rather than self blaming. Together we will equip you with the skills and understanding you need in order to move forward with confidence.

Sessions after are £50 online across the UK and £55 in person based in North Bristol.
Here to support you through many different issues. I have helped people who are struggling with a sense of what I call ‘stuckness’, in their life. Are you feeling trapped in a job that doesn’t inspire you to get up every morning? Are you feeling imprisoned in life’s routine and experiencing a sense of emptiness, but are unsure of how to fill that void? Are you quietly asking yourself, ‘Who am I?’ You are not alone. I have supported people with these difficulties. In a world that seems to be telling us how to look, how to act and even how to feel, it’s no wonder we can find ourselves feeling lost and confused. I can help.

Navigating life can sometimes be challenging, invoking painful emotions and ways of coping and adapting, which may cause further pain. You may be experiencing difficult emotions, poor mental or physical health and/or been affected by significant life events, which are impacting your day-to-day life and your connection to yourself and others. You may be looking for a safe place to process your past and present experiences and feelings, without fear of judgement.

I can offer video or telephone sessions or a mixture if that suits you
This world is a fast-moving, pressured and sometimes, bewildering place. We are expected to navigate it while carrying the heavy weight of the opinions and expectations of others. No wonder that we can become overwhelmed, worried and sad. I can’t (sadly) change the world or your experiences in it, but together, we might be able to find a way for you to move forward, feeling more in control, more confident and hopefully, happier.

FAQ - About Teletherapy
Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialised therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
