A strong, trusting relationship is, I believe, what makes therapy, therapeutic. Part of my role is to offer the conditions; empathy, acceptance and genuineness which are at the root of cultivating therapeutic alliance. By offering these conditions, I will meet you as a whole person and remain open and curious to what you feel you want to bring to the session. I do not perceive myself as the expert of your life, you are. I will encounter you in the sessions, holding my understanding that you are of inherent worth and value.

I am registered with Bupa and welcome clients who have Bupa health insurance as well as clients with no health insurance.
If you've found your way to me then life probably isn't all you want it to be at the moment. You've made a good start in seeking help. Sharing a problem can be hugely beneficial and I offer a safe and regular space for you to talk and explore difficult emotions and the things which may be troubling you. It can be a great relief to share your worries and fears with someone who acknowledges your feelings and works towards helping you reach a solution and feel better.

People often come to me when life feels overwhelming, stuck, or harder to manage. You might be feeling anxious, exhausted, low, tearful, on edge, numb, or in emotional or physical pain, or just coping day to day. Perhaps you’re overthinking, not sleeping well, burnt out, grieving, or noticing repeated patterns in relationships, work, or life changes. I offer a calm, confidential space either in person just outside Bowness-on-Windermere, within 5 miles, in a peaceful Lake District countryside setting or online.
