WPA Counselling in Harrogate
I am an integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor and an accredited member of the BACP. I ran my own business for over twenty years and so I can fully appreciate how work related stresses can make it seem impossible to achieve a healthy, balanced life. I was an IDVA (Independent Domestic Violence Advisor) for some years and I also have experience working in a residential setting with young people experiencing complex mental health issues. Following on from this I trained to work with children aged 11 years and over as I feel very strongly that there is a real lack of mental health support especially for children and young people.

At The Compassionate Therapy Space, you'll be met with warmth, curiosity and compassion, without judgement. You won't be expected to talk about anything before you're ready.

I am a psychotherapist & counsellor with a child/young person specialism and an adult psychotherapeutic counsellor. I was a primary school teacher for 24 years and have knowledge and understanding of the many complexities impacting young people, parents and those working with them. I have worked therapeutically with all ages. Whatever our age or stage in life, there are times when we encounter challenges or struggles. These can be confusing, cause anxiety or a feeling of being stuck. We can suffer from low self-esteem and need support in improving resilience, communication and relationships and gain an improved sense of wellbeing.

Most people feel overwhelmed and 'burned out' at some point in their life. Often we know what the problem is, it might be work related, personal or a combination of things. Maybe, it is less clear, a general awareness of feeling low and unhappy much of the time without really knowing why. It can be invaluable to have somewhere private and confidential to talk, to be able to think more clearly about what isn't working, the reasons why and how things could be different going forward.

I offer gentle therapy and coaching for sensitive adults who have lost themselves through difficult life events, prolonged stress, or years of people-pleasing. When you’ve learned to adapt, stay quiet, or put your own needs aside to feel safe or fit in, you may feel overwhelmed, stuck in repeating patterns, or disconnected from your true self and your deeper needs. Together we'll work at the pace of your nervous system, helping you heal old wounds and restore inner balance by reconnecting with your inner wisdom and reclaiming your authentic self. You don’t need fixing, just a supportive space where you can remember who you are.

You show the world a smiling face and they see your successes, but they don't see what's underneath. You feel anxious, self-critical or constantly "on" inside. Your perfectionism, high expectations, or past experiences leave you feeling uneasy, exhausted and even disconnected from yourself and those around you. You long for change but feel stuck and unsure where to start. Another part of you quietly wishes for a space where you can slow down, be real, and be heard without judgement. Whether you have a clear focus or simply sense that something needs to shift, let's explore it together at your pace.
