Welcome, I’m Joy (she/they). I’m a qualified psychotherapist working with individuals and couples online. With particular experience in LGBTQIA+, Neurodivergence & the Performing Arts, I offer a compassionate, sincere and confidential space for individuals and couples to work through their experiences.

There is hope even if your brain tells you there isn't, and it is my job as a counsellor to help you see it. It is usually buried somewhere under layers of shame, self-criticism and feeling not good enough. We will work together to help you feel a deeper sense of fulfilment and control over your life. With the right support and tools, you can overcome challenges and lead a more balanced and satisfying life, even if now it seems impossible.

Our experiences in life can take us away from feeling like our true selves, or we can end up feeling that it isn’t safe to be ourselves. This can end up with us feeling disconnected from ourselves or our lives and living in a way that doesn’t feel aligned to us. We can be left feeling lost, ashamed, confused, dissatisfied, anxious, down, or full of self-loathing.
Through helping you to understand and accept yourself, I hope to help you to build a life that feels aligned and fulfilling to you. My approach is trauma informed, meaning that I understand that sometimes our responses to life can feel confusing.

Hi , welcome. I’m the founder of RLS Therapy. I’m a down-to-earth person-centred therapist offering support for anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem and life transitions, like grief and loss.
Many of my clients grew up in difficult or emotionally neglectful environments and are now experiencing anxiety, low-self worth or relationship struggles as a result. Others come to me during periods of trauma, burnout, stress, bereavement or life changes, or when overwhelming feelings make everything difficult to manage. Therapy with me has also helped neurodivergent individuals feel heard and understood.

The right therapist changes everything. Finding them shouldn't be this hard.
Maybe you've spent years feeling too much, not enough, or like you're disappearing inside your own life. Or maybe you've tried therapy before and left feeling more pathologised than understood.
At Common Ground, you don't have to explain yourself from scratch or make yourself smaller to fit the room. We're a specialist neurodivergent-affirming and trauma-informed practice — and we get it from the inside.

It is entirely normal, in life, to feel confused, upset, anxious, unsure or challenged; these are all feelings that show that we are human. I provide you with the tools to use if life feels overwhelming, or when you want to make further improvements or understand yourself better. Psychotherapy is for anyone and everyone and is as normal a part of self-care as exercise or getting a haircut. It is an opportunity to do what is essential but that too often is overlooked: allowing ourselves the space to understand ourselves better. Seeking support through psychotherapy can help to deepen self-awareness around life’s tensions.

It can be overwhelming finding the right therapist and therapeutic approach for you. I aim to make the process of therapy clear and comprehensible, starting with building a shared understanding (formulation) of your difficulties and setting goals. Over the last 14 years I have worked across the NHS and independent practice, supporting adults and young people with mood difficulties (including anxiety and depression), adjustment to physical health conditions, and eating disorders. My clinical experience and training, together with your self-knowledge, is our starting point for therapeutic work.
