Many people I work with are autistic or have ADHD — formally diagnosed or self-recognised — and often only realise this later in life.
In therapy, we gently explore what drives your patterns and what your mind and body really need. Over time, you can feel lighter, calmer, and more in tune with yourself — discovering clarity, self-compassion, and a way of living that truly reflects who you are. You can build a life that feels meaningful, satisfying, and aligned with the person you want to be

I have additional specialisms in: LGBT counselling, neurodivergence (ADHD and autism), working with people affected by HIV, and working with polyamory and ethical non-monogamy.
At various points in our lives, we all experience feelings, thoughts and events that we find challenging. You might be feeling anxious or depressed, finding it difficult to come to terms with something that has happened in the past, or worried about what the future will bring. Perhaps you feel stuck in a difficult situation, or caught between what seem like impossible choices. You may be seeking an opportunity to think about who you are, what is important to you, and the kind of life you want to lead.

I have over ten years’ experience supporting people with a wide range of dilemmas, including: relationship difficulties, neurodivergence, including ADHD and/or autism diagnoses and work dilemmas (in many contexts).
My hope is to create a therapeutic space for us to reflect upon what influences your experiences of the world and I hope to support you through any dilemmas you are experiencing. Time to time we all come across bumps in the road and it is helpful to talk these through. Our connections with others past and present can create both opportunities, but can also create barriers in how we see the world. I hold in mind intersectionality and how our similarities and differences influences our relationships.

I support neurodiverse people with ADHD, dyslexia & autism, also their families & partners.
These are some of the things people may be thinking or saying when they decide to seek professional support: "I experience awful feelings of panic." "I feel anxious a lot of the time. "I feel tearful a lot." "I can feel angry all day and it feels bad." "Life appears very confusing and complicated" I offer professional counselling, support and strategies to help you navigate your way through whatever your issues may be, already in the first session. I hold a professional psychotherapy diploma from the Human Givens Institute. This approach helped a family member with anxiety very much which is why I chose to train in it also.

I have experience working with a wide variety of people, I’m particularly familiar with autism and neurodiversity, and I work with all kinds of issues including depression and anxiety, as well as those vague feelings of just not being what you ought to be.
Person-Centred Therapy emphasises recognising you (the client) as an equal and an expert on yourself. The therapist or counsellor is not some superior authority, but a curious, honest, empathic, non-judgemental partner who believes everyone has a natural tendency towards their own version of personal growth - at some level you know best what you need.

I work with adults, young people and children from a variety of different backgrounds and with a rainbow of individual needs (including SEN, ASD and ADHD).
Thank you for considering an option other than betterhelp! Having passed the shortest day and made it into a new year, hopefully we can start to look forward to some positive changes to come. The question is where to begin and how to overcome those old anxieties, new worries and generally overwhelming feelings. Would you like to feel more positive and find some strategies that will help you to overcome the feelings that are holding you back? Working out what can be done to improve how you are feeling can seem like a difficult task. Whatever your reason for having clicked on this link, I would like to help you - you can feel better.

We are all on our own personal journeys and when anyone choses to come to therapy they will naturally be in different places on that journey and choose different paths based on their own desired outcomes. I will work with you as a unique individual, wherever you are on that journey, whether just starting out or looking to delve deeper into self awareness. Offering acceptance, empathy and compassion without judgement. Therapy could involve processing and understanding things that have happened the past; letting go of thoughts and feelings that no longer serve you; looking at personal development, care of self and self compassion.

When life feels a little out of balance, it's important that we find our own answers to the things that concern us about our lives. It's also important that we find a way to do this that suits our preferences, our needs and our styles. It's vital that we find a place where we can consider those questions about our lives and the situations we find ourselves in with patience, compassion and care. Finding a counsellor or psychotherapist to be with us can bring enormous benefit during difficult times.
