That includes relationship problems, anger issues, depression, lack of confidence, abuse, depression, bereavement, anxiety, addiction and personality disorders.
Relationships and relationship problems are my specialty. This includes a relationship with your partner as well as a relationship you have with yourself. The way you treat yourself often affects the way you treat others. By engaging in the exploration and reflection you might increase your awareness of yourself as well as the environment you engage with.

I have worked with people of all ages, and clients dealing for a range of concerns, including bereavement, anxiety, self-esteem, and identity issues.
I have trained in existential psychotherapy, and I apply this in my work with clients. The starting point is the experience of the client, to provide the opportunity for them to examine their understanding of life, and the problems and dilemmas they face; to reassess their goals and desires. It provides an opportunity to consider how their choices have been constrained, perhaps by the views and expectations of others, but also by constraints rooted in our society. Understanding can lead to questioning, and growth, possibly in new directions.

Alongside my private practice, I work in the NHS and am the Founder of The Loss Foundation, a bereavement charity.
At the heart of my approach is collaboration. In our first session, I’ll take time to understand what’s going on for you and propose a plan tailored to your needs and goals. Taking that first step can feel daunting, especially in difficult times, but it can also be transformative. We can work together weekly if helpful, or at a pace that feels right for you.

I work with adults who are finding it hard to cope with the challenges life presents, perhaps, anxiety and stress, relationship issues, loss and bereavement, depression or sadness.
My approach is to listen carefully in a non-judgemental way, to understand you, and to help you to find ways to be happier and more satisfied. It's not my style to sit quietly and nod, but to be part of the process as you figure things out and make good decisions for yourself. I hope you will find me accepting, engaging, and challenging where appropriate.

With over 20 years of corporate and non-profit experience, alongside my time as a bereavement counsellor for local charities, and trauma therapist, I bring both empathy and practicality to my practice.
Does life feel scattered, making the simplest tasks overwhelming? Are you disconnecting from others, longing for connection, but feeling safer alone? Do anxious thoughts keep you up at night, leaving you restless? Maybe you're weighed down by stress or the effects of past experiences or current life challenges (relationship struggles, work stress, burnout, big transitions, trauma, or ADHD diagnosis). All of it can leave us feeling stuck and disconnected. These feelings can be further shaped by cultural or identity-related pressures, adding layers of complexity to our struggles. If this resonates with you, know you're not alone.

How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
