Is communication causing problems for you, leaving you feeling unheard and frustrated? Are you feeling disconnected from those important relationships? Together we can look at unpicking the difficult bits. I work with individuals and couples. I'm a GSRD (gender, sexual and relationship diversity) therapist and my approach is rooted in the person-centred approach, our sessions are led by you at your pace, although I’ll gently encourage you to explore the tougher stuff together in our sessions.

You’re the one who keeps it together for everyone else,but inside, you’re anxious, overwhelmed, or just not feeling like yourself. You’ve been coping for a while, but now you’re ready for real change. Maybe you’re stuck in patterns that no longer serve you overthinking, people-pleasing, burnout, or low self-worth. Or you’re carrying past pain that still affects you today. You don’t want a quick fix. You want to understand what’s going on, feel more in control, and reconnect with who you really are. You’re ready to talk, even if it feels a bit scary. You want a space where you can be honest, feel heard, and start healing.

Life can be so challenging when you're struggling - You may be doing your best to navigate your way through a difficult and traumatic life event or be struggling with past experiences, feeling low or a bit lost. Perhaps you are overwhelmed with anxiety or have behavioural patterns that you just can't seem to break the pattern of. During these times, the future can be so very difficult to see, even the next step ahead can become unclear. You don't need to struggle alone anymore. This is your first step towards feeling better and I am so glad you are here. Something will grow from all you are going through and it will be YOU.

Since I began my counselling journey I have helped many people deal with the difficulties that life throws at us. No one is immune from problems, from the past or in the present. I offer a non judgemental confidential and safe space for you to explore and work through your issues. I work safely and ethically and always have your best interests at heart. I believe we all have the answers inside us and with a little help we can find the solutions that are best for us. I believe that mental health is equal to physical health, often we do not recognise that everyday stress is effecting our ability to cope with everyday life.

I work with people in high-pressure roles who are used to holding things together for everyone else - at work, at home, in their business. On the outside you may look ‘fine’ but inside it might feel very different. Perhaps the stress doesn’t ever switch off, decisions keep circling, and there maybe a quiet sense you’ve lost touch with yourself.

If you are a student, please ask about concessions. I work from the premise that we don’t have “bad parts,” but we can become unbalanced, and that imbalance can make life feel difficult. By remaining curious, we can explore every part of you. I work with both individuals and couples, helping you navigate recurring patterns and the stuck or hard-to-talk-about places. Individuals: £45, Couples: £60. Ask about concessions.

People turn to therapy in order to address the pain rooted in the past traumas. They opt for therapy when they feel unseen and unsupported. Once their instinctive needs to be seen and heard are fulfilled, people are able to revert to the Self. They are able to identify the negative self-perceptions and coping mechanisms that were adopted to be able to survive in a non supportive environment. Through therapy, people seek to empower themselves and take charge of their lives independently. I have frequently witnessed my clients experience deep healing with a holistic psychosomatic approach that is rooted in compassion.

I am a very experienced and professional therapist with over twelve thousand client contact hours behind me in individual, couples and group work. I feel my experience coupled with my life experiences makes me the person and the therapist I am today. My training in the person-centred approach (three years) and in Transactional Analysis (seven years) together with continuing professional and personal development and supervision give me a strong theoretical and experiential focus to bring to my client work. I work very much in a relational way (research indicates that the therapeutic relationship is key to positive therapy outcomes)

You want to understand yourself more deeply, feel calmer and more grounded, and build a kinder relationship with yourself. You’re ready for change, but you want it to feel safe, at your pace, and genuinely empowering.
