I am a DBT-informed therapist working with adults who experience intense emotions, complex mental health difficulties, or who have felt misunderstood in previous therapy or mental health services.
I offer online therapy across the UK and work with a range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, psychosis-related experiences (such as hearing voices or paranoia), addiction, grief, and long-standing relationship or family challenges.
I have particular experience supporting people with traits associated with anxiety, borderline personality (BPD/EUPD), emotional dysregulation, OCD and intrusive thoughts

My role as a therapist is to help you to understand yourself and life better in order to make lasting positive changes in your personal and professional life. I create a confidential and non-judgmental setting in which you can express your current and past difficulties freely. In doing so I will listen carefully to you and try to understand what is troubling you. Providing you with undivided attention, I will aim to understand any ongoing patterns you may be stuck in, and challenge you where needed.

I offer counselling to people who are in some sort of transition in their lives. Often people come to me when they're feeling stuck, isolated or low. I often work with people in their twenties, thirties and forties who are facing some sort of mid-life transition. You might be weighing up what is important to you, and how to take the next steps in your life. I work with people who are often from marginalised groups, for example, LGBTQ+ people and/or people from Black and ethnic minorities. You might want to find out a way to live your life that feels authentic and unblock energy to achieve your goals.

Does it feel like life should somehow be working better than this? Perhaps you feel stuck in patterns that keep repeating, overwhelmed by stress or change, burnt out from holding everything together, or exhausted by trying so hard for things that still do not feel right.
I work with people navigating anxiety, burnout, relationships, loss, life transitions, and neurodivergence, especially Autism, ADHD, and AuDHD. Together, we untangle what is happening, process difficult feelings, explore patterns and perspectives, and make practical changes to help life feel calmer, clearer, more meaningful, and more fully your own.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally stuck? Maybe you're constantly exhausted, struggling with low self-esteem, or feeling the pressure to “hold it all together.” You might not even know exactly what’s wrong – just that something doesn’t feel right. Therapy offers a supportive space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences so you can begin to understand yourself better and move toward meaningful change.
I’m a BACP-registered counsellor and psychotherapist with experience working with individuals and couples across a range of issues.

I offer a calm, thoughtful space where you can begin to explore what feels difficult and may be keeping you feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns. You may be feeling anxious or puzzled that relationships are not working as well as you would like. Together we can begin to understand how past experiences may still be influencing how you relate to yourself and others.
Perhaps you are looking for help at a time of crisis or just feel things don't feel right but can't work out what is stopping you from feeling happy and fulfilled? By becoming more self-aware in therapy we can start to cast off unhelpful ways of thinking and being.

Specialised support for Men.
You may be used to handling things on your own—staying strong, in control and getting on with it. But that can take a toll. Many men come to therapy not because everything has fallen apart, but because something no longer feels right. There may be more pressure than before, more frustration or a sense of being stuck, without a clear reason why.
I offer a space to figure out what’s going on and find a different way forward—without judgment or over-complication.

I provide a safe and confidential space to explore what you may be going through or if you feel that a change is needed. Feeling stuck or low in life can be a struggle, we can 'talk' about your journey together to provide clarity, and resilience you need to take the first step forward.

Are you someone who looks like they’re coping on the outside, but inside things feel harder than they should. Anxiety, past experiences, or self-doubt can quietly shape how you think, feel, and respond, even when you’re trying your best to move forward.
I offer a space where we can slow things down and make sense of what’s happening, without judgement or pressure. From there, we begin to work through it. Using approaches such as CBT, EMDR & counselling, the aim isn’t just to talk, but to help you experience change in how you feel, think, and respond so life begins to feel more manageable and more like your own again.

Typically, I work with people struggling with anxiety, despair, anger, and shame; who wrestle with guilt, mistrust, addiction, and dissociation; who are self-critical, self-destructive, and trapped in repeated patterns of hurting self/others. Such feelings, behaviours, and patterns of relating often stem from multiple, complex life events and circumstances, including past/present abusive and neglectful relationships, discrimination, bereavement, trauma, gender expectations, parenthood, study/work/financial pressures, and more existential challenges such as one's relationship to meaning, responsibility, authenticity, and mortality.

Counselling can help you to explore and work through emotional difficulties you may be experiencing that could be affecting your thoughts and behaviours. It is a space for you to share things that you may be finding difficult to talk to your friends and family about. These difficulties may be from your past that are now causing problems in your present or from a more recent trauma you have experienced in your life such as a relationship break-up, loss of someone close to you or difficulties with getting to sleep or sleep not feeling like sleep anymore, but feeling more like an escape.

With over 20 years of experience in mental health, I began my career in the NHS as a psychotherapist, specialising in long and medium-term therapy. For the past 15 years, I have been dedicated to private practice, successfully addressing a wide range of issues for individuals and couples.
In today's fast-paced world, we are often overwhelmed by information, pressure, and responsibilities. The constant bombardment of tasks and expectations can lead to feelings of stress, anxiety, and overwhelm, manifesting in various ways such as overthinking, worrying, anxiety, procrastination, low self-esteem, depression and more.

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.

Sometimes it’s hard to find our place in the world and we feel broken, lost or alone. These feelings often lie at the root of anxiety, depression, addiction, shame, and other issues. The antidote is connection. •••

Healing is often a journey of uncovering the unseen layers of ourselves. As an integrative and transpersonal psychotherapist, I help individuals move beyond surface-level symptoms to address the deeper, soul-oriented roots of their struggle.
