I am an integrative psychotherapist that works with children and adults. I work intuitively and use whatever theory & practice best suits my clients' needs. I believe that when we are able to make sense of our responses to life, we are then able to choose and journey towards a healthier happy future. I have been counselling since 2013 and have worked in several schools with parents and children. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression or keep finding yourself in patterns of behaviour that are hindering you from your full potential, I would love to offer some support and explore possibilities.

I completely understand that starting therapy can be overwhelming. Maybe you have been feeling low, anxious or stressed and you are not quite sure where to begin or who might be the right therapist for you. Struggling with mental health can leave people feeling hopeless, but it is very common for complicated feelings like these to surface and you are not alone.By making the decision to start therapy, you have already prioritised understanding yourself better, healing, and wanting to take back some control of your life.

My aim is to support you through any difficulty you are experiencing now. I offer a warm, non-judgemental and confidential setting where you can talk about the issues that are distressing you. Together I hope we can gain an understanding of what you want from life, what fulfils you and what holds you back. Normal people go to therapy. They worry about life, relationships, family, fulfilment, have suffered trauma, have caused trauma, have loved and lost. It is entirely reasonable to have times in your life when you’re finding it difficult to cope. Yet going to therapy is a brave decision and looking at this profile is the first step.

Right now, your life might feel “off” or like a bit of a mess. You’ve tried Google, read self-help books, or watched mental health videos, but nothing seems to be helping. That can feel frustrating — even alien, especially if you’re someone others describe as “strong.” No one would guess that you might be struggling. You're emotionally intelligent. You can name your feelings and even connect them to past experiences. And yet, you’re still overthinking, maybe even panicked, shut down or even shamed. Your emotional needs feel unmanageable.

I am an experienced, passionate therapist who genuinely enjoys the process of helping people work through emotional difficulty. With a background in law and physical wellbeing, my approach to therapy is holistic in outlook; I always try to keep one foot in the real world as we explore your reasons for therapy.  Clients often present with a general sense of anxiety or depression. Perhaps current circumstances have proved overwhelming and they need support guiding themselves back. Or old behavioral patterns have re-emerged and this is proving distressing. By holding space for you to reflect, we can work through your issues together.

Things are probably feeling quite tough right now. You might struggle to get out of bed in the morning or find it hard to quiet your racing mind. Maybe you replay conversations over and over again, or endlessly scroll on your phone, trying to distract yourself. Sometimes it feels like you're being pushed around by strong emotions, and other times it's like living in a slow-motion black-and-white movie. Wouldn't it be great to live in full colour again? To feel in charge of your own life, decisions, and emotions? Imagine being able to show up as your favourite self and live life to the fullest.

Are feelings of being trapped in complex relationships, self-doubt, depression, anxiety or uncertainty during life’s transitions becoming overwhelming? Are you grappling with your identity or facing the challenges that come with change, like menopause? Perhaps you’re a high achiever dealing with self-confidence issues and the pressure of imposter syndrome. Are you looking for someone who embraces feminist, LGBTQ+ affirming, and anti-racist principles? Do you need support in addressing the effects of narcissistic abuse and complex relational dynamics?

It's normal to need support with our mental health and wellbeing. Sometimes we need help to feel more at ease in a specific area of our lives, or perhaps to explore why we feel the way we do. Whatever your hopes are for therapy, I strive to create a safe and supportive space tailored for you. I am a Clinical Psychologist, which means I am trained to support people with different hopes, needs, and difficulties, by using a wide range of therapies. I work by first understanding more about you and what has brought you to therapy, before agreeing on a therapeutic approach which will best suit your individual needs.

I work with people who feel overwhelmed with work, stress or anxiety. Perhaps they need to be always-on, high-performing, or perhaps they feel a sense of obligation to those around them, their community, or our planet. And I work with people who feel that their life is lacking - in joy, direction or love. Perhaps they feel unsure about the future, depressed or perhaps they are in a pattern of behaviour that no longer serves them. They could be bereaved. They could be processing something that happened.
