If you are worrying more than usual, having nightmares or flashbacks to a traumatic event, suffering from disturbed sleep or are more feeling irritable and hyper-vigilant than usual, you may be suffering from a reaction to trauma. If this strikes a cord, visit the website for more information or get in touch by email or phone. I have spent the last twenty years helping clients resolve trauma and anxiety problems and intend to spend the next twenty doing the same.

I work with people struggling with trauma, addiction, self esteem, and patterns that keep repeating despite their best efforts to change. You may feel stuck, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or like things are beginning to slip beneath the surface. This is a space where you can speak openly without judgement or pressure. Together we can explore what may sit underneath these patterns, including early experiences, relationships, emotional wounds, and ways of coping such as substance use or other addictive behaviours.

I support adults (17+) who are living with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, stress, burnout, grief, loss, and the impact of difficult life transitions. Many people also come to me because of relationship difficulties, partnership conflict, or the emotional strain of menopause and other life‑stage changes. I also work with individuals adjusting to a life‑limiting diagnosis, supporting them to find steadiness, meaning, and connection in the midst of uncertainty. Each person has their own way of coping after a crisis, bereavement, or major change, sadness, guilt, shock, anger and frustration.

Often people need to find their own truth and for this we may need to find questions that need answering , uncover pathways that feel blocked and make choices that can unlock you towards freedom and a more loving space for your self and your life.

I work with adolescents and adults struggling with eating disorders, emetophobia (fear of vomiting), and trauma, often feeling stuck in anxiety, avoidance, or cycles that haven’t shifted despite previous therapy. Many come to me overwhelmed by food, fear, or the impact of past experiences and want more than short-term coping. With 20 years’ experience in mental health and specialist post-qualification training, I provide tailored, evidence-based therapy (CBT, ACT, ERP, EMDR) to target underlying patterns and help you move forward with greater confidence, flexibility, and lasting change.

I work with a wide range of issues, including but not limited to anxiety, depression, insomnia, OCD, addictions, PTSD, phobias and issues around self-esteem. I invite clients to shape and set goals (these are often added to!) and we work together to reach them. Sometimes problems have gone on for years; sometimes they are new and acute. In both cases they can be resolved: clients move towards a life that is fulfilling, meaningful and happy. In the past year I have helped children, young people and adults, whose ages range from 8 to 85 years. Every session, from the very first, focuses on gaining understanding and making progress.

I work with people experiencing bereavement, grief, and other significant losses, including relationship breakdown, health changes, retirement, miscarriage, infertility, or life transitions. Many feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, anxious, stuck, or alone despite having support around them. From feeling pressure to 'stay strong' or 'move on' to feeling numb and not knowing how to access your grief, I provide a safe, compassionate space where you can speak openly, without judgement, at a pace that feels right for you.

As a counsellor I understand how hard reaching out can be and making those first steps can be difficult, I want to reassure you that I am here for you to listen to you. My main working model is a person centered approach however I am an integrative counsellor, which means sessions are tailored to suit your needs. I also have the skills and resources to use creativity within sessions if wanted, but equally be there to just listen to you. Reaching out and making those first initial steps can feel unnerving but i want to reassure you I am here to listen.

Perhaps you are experiencing stress, low-self esteem, the effects of trauma, bereavement or depression. Maybe you feel that something isn't quite 'right'. If so, psychotherapy could be used to help you gain self-acceptance, and a deeper understanding of what makes you 'tick' and what doesn't. Psychotherapy is typically a weekly meeting of fifty minutes, often over a medium to long term. With time and commitment, we aim to build what may be called a 'therapeutic alliance' that allows you to feel able to safely explore and eventually understand and come to terms with difficult thoughts, feelings and experiences both current and past.
