Parenting Counselling in Guildford
It takes courage and strength to reach out for support, and I never take that lightly. I’m always grateful to be the person you choose to trust on your journey.
Counselling is more than just talking. it’s a journey toward deeper understanding, healing, and personal growth. In a world where emotional struggles often go unnoticed or unspoken, counselling offers a calm, safe, and non-judgmental space to explore your inner world.
It’s a space where you’re given time to gently explore past wounds, recognize and understand unhelpful patterns, and begin to reconnect with parts of yourself that may have been silenced or forgotten.

I am an experienced psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience working with adults, young people and couples. I have a natural ability to empathise with my clients and am able to offer the support they need whilst working together to find tailor-made solutions. My clients often reflect on how their own journey has progressed through therapy with me, and many of my referrals come through word of mouth and the resulting network I have developed over the years. Before training to be a therapist at the University of Surrey, I worked in management and Human Resources. I currently hold a post teaching Psychology.

Low self-worth can be exhausting. Perfectionism, people pleasing and inner battles may leave you feeling burnt out or depressed. I help people find their way through to build more confident, compassionate relationships with themselves and others. This is a process of reconnecting with and valuing who you really are. When you're constantly trying to prove yourself or make things OK for others, it's easy to lose touch with that or to hide yourself away. Together, we can work to shift the patterns that keep you stuck, so you can focus on being you - in work, in life and in relationships. Contact me to book a free chat and get started.
