I'm trained in Person-centred Therapy which is suitable for helping people with a wide variety of issues such as stress, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem.
I believe that you are the expert on your own life. And giving you a safe, confidential space to explore your issues with another person, without fear of judgement empowers you to make sense of things and find your own solutions. For people with ADHD, this is enhanced by my lived experience and experience of meeting many people who have similar experiences.

I offer therapy online and in person at Margaret House, Roundhay, Leeds
People seek therapy for many different reasons. It might be that you don’t feel happy, or you’re anxious or low and want to make changes in your life but you’re not sure how. Patterns of behaviour that you developed a long time ago may now feel frustrating and unhelpful. Therapy can help you to better gain a better awareness and understanding of these patterns and, when necessary, challenge them and how you perceive yourself. This awareness can also help you to become a more authentic and resilient version of yourself.

My approach is integrative and rooted in humanistic, person-centred therapy, meaning our work is shaped around your unique experiences, feelings, and aims.

I offer in-person sessions on Tuesdays and Fridays in central Leeds.
I work with emotional, relational, and identity-based difficulties, and key life experiences such as trauma, loss, conflict, abuse, absence, and lack. Perhaps you find yourself caught up in the past, and struggling to move forwards in life. You might be grappling with overwhelming emotions or turbulent relationships. Maybe you're troubled by emptiness, or loneliness, or a general dissatisfaction with life. Alternatively, you may just feel that something isn’t quite right, but find it hard to put into words.

I offer therapy sessions in-person in the centre of York and Leeds.
Whatever brought you to therapy will be our starting point for working together - also if you cannot exactly put into words what has made you search for a therapist. It may be an experience of being out of place or being out of step, and feelings of overwhelm, sadness and frustration. I offer a supportive space to explore and make sense of whatever you are struggling with and I value the unique rhythm and pace of exploration of each individual. I am committed to creating a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and inclusive space.

Counselling sessions are either online, via phone, or where possible can be face to face.
Do you feel on high alert, experience anxiety, depression, maybe have racing thoughts, don't feel good enough and struggling to sleep.  I can help you to feel calmer, lighter more connected to others, confident as well as feeling more in control.   Life can feel so exhausting when you are overwhelmed. I understand that sense of confusion, isolation, feeling lost with how to be ‘strong’, be enough.   Together we can work on reducing the impact of distressing thoughts, reducing feelings of overwhelm and manage any self harm or suicidal thoughts and feelings. I will be beside you as you learn more about yourself and what you need.
