I offer a warm, steady space for adults who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, burnt out, or weighed down by low mood. These feelings often make sense in the context of current stress, but they can also be rooted in earlier experiences. When early life was unpredictable or unsafe, it can leave lasting impressions that show up in adulthood as anxiety, people‑pleasing, self‑criticism, difficulty setting boundaries, or a sense of being “too much” or “not enough”. These early or later experiences can also lead to PTSD‑related symptoms such as feeling on edge, easily triggered, or struggling with intrusive memories.

I specialise in working with children, young people and young adults experiencing anxiety and/or trauma. I support parents and carers alongside work with their child. I work creatively and playfully when appropriate and if welcomed. I feel it is important to get to know each person as a unique individual and build on their strengths in our work together. I work integratively, drawing upon several therapeutic models including CBT and EMDR, depending on what feels appropriate. My team can also offer support with needs including long-term health conditions (diabetes, CFS/ME, asthma), psychosis, self-esteem and anxiety (see my website).

I wonder what brings you here? Life can throw things at us that challenge, block or trigger us, beyond our capacity to work it through ourselves. I’m glad you’re here, seeking support. It’s not an easy journey, therapy. Worthwhile though (in my humble opinion) if you can find the right person to work with. I firmly believe, whatever is going on for you, within each of us lies innate potential beyond our imagination. I always feel honoured to walk alongside people as they unpack and explore their struggles at depths rarely reached in non-therapeutic relationships. My goal is to offer you this uniquely safe space to do this.

I offer a no-obligation assessment initially, which is opportunity for us to discuss your situation and determine better if therapy with me could meet your needs; only if you are happy to do we then proceed to an ongoing therapy, be it on a short or long term basis. I incorporate psychodynamic, existential, cognitive behavioural and person centred approaches to offer a therapy suited to your unique needs. Whilst we all know something of suffering anxiety, depression, bereavement, or other issues, your particular experience is entirely your own. I believe in a therapy that accomodates your individuality.
