Working psychodynamically, I listen carefully to understand what lays beneath the surface of our day-to-day lives to make sense of emotional experiences which are often difficult to put into words but cause us to struggle. As part of my practice, I have experience working with a variety of psychological difficulties including anxiety, depression, trauma, loss and problems in relationships.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I aim to make the process as empowering and supportive as possible from the very beginning. You may be navigating grief, family tensions, a relationship breakdown, anxiety, money worries, or the pressures of parenting — often it’s a combination of these challenges that leads to overwhelm or burnout.

I specialise in working with neurodivergent adults — particularly women who have spent years feeling out of step with the world, exhausted by the effort of appearing fine. Diagnosed in my fifties, I bring genuine lived experience alongside over twenty years of clinical depth. I understand what it means to mask, to overachieve, and to struggle in ways that are invisible to others. That knowledge doesn't replace clinical training — it deepens it. I offer individual therapy and couples counselling that is unhurried, thoughtful, and tailored entirely to you.

Choosing the right therapist can feel like a daunting task. You may be wondering, "How do I choose a therapist?" or "How will I know if you’re the right fit for me?" These are important questions, and I understand how challenging it can be to find the right support. That’s why I aim to ensure we’re a good match before moving forward. I begin with a complimentary initial phone conversation, which allows us to get acquainted and break the ice. If the connection feels right for both of us, we can then schedule an initial session.

My main approach is to encourage you to explore your feelings and take responsibility for your thoughts and actions. As I work in a way that empowers the client, I always work with what you present. Bottled up feelings such as anger, anxiety, grief, jealousy, sadness, shame and pain can become very overwhelming.The opportunity to express them can make it much easier to understand yourself and others. As I acknowledge your feelings and respect you as a person in your own right, you gain self-respect and a sense of being valued. This leads to building trust between counsellor and client, which is an essential part of the process.

I offer you a safe place to explore your emotions and the issues that trouble you and will work with you to find solutions which will improve your life. Therapy with me is about preparing to make changes. I will help you release the thoughts that trouble you, your fears and despair and help you contain those most intense feelings so we can look deeper into the reasons why you are not functioning as you would like to. We can't always change the way those around us behave, but we can change our attitude to life and to others.

Working in the NHS and privately, I’ve spent many hours with people who struggle with problems that distress them. Some have suffered from an enduring sense of flatness or emptiness in their lives, while others struggle with states of heightened anxiety. Some seek help due to recurring problems in their relationships: issues with sex and intimacy, or low self-esteem, or anger, or anxiety. Many are troubled by aspects of the past that remain unresolved. By speaking in confidence to an experienced listener, we can address things we may have preferred not to talk about, or even think about, but which weighed on our minds all the same.

Many people now have therapy, for different reasons and from a range of backgrounds. You might be feeling overwhelmed and not wanting to handle difficulties without support anymore; or be feeling confused, conflicted and just need help to understand things more clearly. Therapy provides a safe, confidential and consistent space to start exploring some of the things about ourselves that can be difficult to understand. People come with depression, anxiety, family issues, relationship dynamics, trauma or wanting to understand repeated patterns.
