I am lucky to be working with clients from a wide range of backgrounds with all sorts of issues. I see people on a 1-1 and if indicated, in my analytic group; mostly helping people with inter-personal issues which are often at the root of their depression, anxiety, loneliness. Clients report life-changing improvements in close relationships, self-awareness, self-confidence and feelings of belonging and significance. These foundational shifts occur through conversation: making links between past and present, noticing patterns and getting to the root cause.

Hi, I'm Georgina. I believe we are all trying to live the lives we want to. Sometimes, through no fault of our own, our experiences and coping strategies can get in the way of us connecting to the life we want. By drawing on psychological theories, I can support you to understand your personal story and make sense of your difficulties. This understanding can go a long way in empowering you to make those desired life changes. It will also guide us to the therapeutic strategies that are best suited to your individual difficulties and that will support you further on your journey to psychological well-being.

Have you been entertaining the idea of therapy for some time, or is this an impulse search? Have you asked yourself questions such as: “Why me?”, “Who am I?”, “How did I get here?”, “Is this the rest of my life?”, "Is this really happening to me", "Why does this always happen to me?", “How do I get where I want to be?” Have you or others have labelled yourself as "down", "depressed", "anxious" or "stressed"? Are you worried about feeling a certain way, or not living the life you were meant to live? Do you carry on your shoulders more than you bargained for and feel you can't share with anyone? I am here for you.

Are you feeling anxious all the time? Can't speak up for yourself? Don't feel good enough? Worried about the future or plagued by the past? You're not alone. Imagine how it would feel to break free from the heavy chains of anxiety. To release the paralysing panic that consumes you. To have unstoppable courage to speak your true feelings. To improve your relationships, and form deep bonding connections with those you love. For years I have helped clients release their fears and anxiety, and overcome traumatic experiences, allowing them to propel forward and embrace their true potential.

I've worked for six years supporting people suffering with eating disorders, body image issues, anxiety, depression and various addictions. My extensive experience has shown me that these symptoms are often a response to distressing or painful situations which can come from all areas of life, perhaps difficult relationships, grief or troubling events. I strive to meet all my clients with unconditional positive regard, with compassion and empathy. I work alongside my clients to nurture a space where they feel they can bring all of themselves, and meet even the most painful or shamed parts without judgment or criticism.

I understand how hard it can be to feel disconnected, like you’re just going through the motions while yearning for something deeper and more meaningful. Despite things may seem to going fine, you feel weighed down by sadness, self-doubt, or a sense of being stuck, and it’s exhausting to carry that alone. What you truly need is a space where you feel heard and understood—a place to make sense of your feelings and reconnect with what matters most to you. You want to break free from the heaviness, rediscover yourself, and start building a life that feels authentic and fulfilling.

We can sometimes feel stuck or overwhelmed in our lives, so by working collaboratively supporting my clients through helping explore feelings, setting goals and developing coping strategies to manage difficulties. I fully understand taking the first step can feel daunting, which is why it’s important to find the right therapist, as building trust is central to the counselling relationship. I strongly believe given the right support, through learning ways to overcome old beliefs and behaviours, we have a capacity to find our own answers and so develop a sense of self-direction which leads us to more enhanced fulfilment in our lives.
