Hello and Welcome, Life can indeed be difficult at times. Many are struggling with mental health in ways that are no longer manageable. Our past and present hurts, our unprocessed feelings can rise to the surface. We find ourselves thinking, feeling and acting in ways that do not reflect who we want to be. Some of us have Grief, Trauma or Addiction that we just can’t seem to work through. As a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist with a PHD(Hon), Master Degree and EMDR(Accredited), I've seen thousands come through my door, with various presenting issues and undergo genuine transformation, healing and leave with hope for the future.

My clients are highly able people in demanding jobs who are looking for a thoughtful and constructive approach to understanding their emotional context. They probably have a successful career and an enriching family and social life, but are acutely aware that unexamined feelings and unprocessed pain are holding them back. They have high agency and high standards, and expectations to match. They have little time to indulge negativity. My clients expect to be challenged and to meet those challenges in a novel and creative way. They are invested in an ongoing commitment and recognise at some level the importance of boundaries.

Are you struggling with grief, anxiety, depression, living with neurodivergence, a health diagnosis, relationships, life in general? It is important to seek help, but first sessions can be very daunting. We will begin by gently exploring what is happening in your life that has brought you to therapy now. Together we can work towards positive change. Nobody knows you better than you, so you decide what issues we delve into together and I will provide a safe, confidential space. As an integrative psychotherapist, I use my training in Humanistic/Person-Centred, Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to best serve you.

I want to sit with you as you reconnect with your inner strength, build resilience, and move toward a life that makes sense to you, meaningful, balanced, and truly your own. Starting counselling can feel daunting, I want you to know that you don’t have to have everything figured out before you start, I didn't. You simply need a space where you are seen, heard, and respected,  exactly as you are. Therapy doesn't work because I have the 'right' answers, it works because over time, we work together building a safe theraputic relationship, which allows difficult feelings, thoughts and experiences to be explored at your pace.

I’m an integrative therapist with extensive experience supporting adults through a wide range of life challenges, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and bereavement. I’m also trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing), a highly effective approach for those affected by trauma and PTSD.

I began my working life in the Armed Forces and have since worked across the public, private and charity sectors.
I specialise in relationship therapy for adults and young adults, supporting individuals and couples facing challenges in family life, work relationships, and experiences of loss. I work with the emotional impact of these difficulties, including anxiety, depression, stress, anger, and grief. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the demands of daily life or struggling with questions that feel difficult to answer alone, therapy can provide a supportive space to reflect, understand, and move forward.

I have experience in military environments and the charity sector.
You might be here because you are struggling with difficult thoughts and emotions and you are looking for someone to talk to in order to help you make sense of it and to find some relief. I hope that I might be able to help. I am a psychotherapist working with adults in weekly psychodynamic therapy. The aim of the therapy is to take time to discover and understand the layers of your mind; how you have come to interact with the world and people around you via the experiences in your past, and how that affects your life now. This understanding can bring a deep-seated sense of relief and an opportunity for long-term change.

Are you navigating a period where life no longer feels familiar, after loss, separation, relocation, illness, or a major life transition? Perhaps you’ve been holding everything together for a long time, yet quietly feel unmoored, uncertain, or unlike yourself. You don’t have to face this period of change alone. I work with adults facing significant change who want a calm, thoughtful space to make sense of what has shifted. Many of the people I support are capable, reflective individuals who find themselves at an unexpected crossroads — grieving not only what has been lost, but questioning who they are now and how to move forward.

Are you someone who looks like they’re coping on the outside, but inside things feel harder than they should. Anxiety, past experiences, or self-doubt can quietly shape how you think, feel, and respond, even when you’re trying your best to move forward. I offer a space where we can slow things down and make sense of what’s happening, without judgement or pressure. From there, we begin to work through it. Using approaches such as CBT, EMDR & counselling, the aim isn’t just to talk, but to help you experience change in how you feel, think, and respond so life begins to feel more manageable and more like your own again.
