Women's Issues Counselling in Manchester
I offer a neuroaffirming therapy space where you can bring your whole self without fear of judgement. Every therapy journey is different, because every person is different. We can work together to shape our sessions in a way that feels right for you.
I understand that, if you've masked for a long time, it can sometimes feel difficult to untangle who you are from that mask. In our sessions, you can openly reflect on your thoughts, feelings and experiences in a space free from external pressures and at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

I'm really interested in people - who we are and why we become who we are. In order to understand ourselves it can help to talk about ourselves, our experiences and feelings. I can offer a safe, secure and non judgmental space where you can do this. Together we can work out why you have reached a point in your life that may be causing you problems, or why you may be feeling stuck. I work with people who are overwhelmed by their circumstances or feel anxious and depressed and find it difficult to move forward. Counselling can give you an opportunity to examine how you can change and improve your circumstances.

The tools and skills you could learn with me can enable you to feel that you can live the rest of your life free from what has been holding you back. We would do this together working at your pace and always being in partnership.

You’re outwardly functioning, maybe even thriving — but inside, something doesn’t feel quite right. You might find yourself overthinking after interactions, second-guessing decisions, or carrying a quiet sense that you’re not fully yourself. Many of the people I work with are very good at adapting — but privately feel like they’re performing rather than really living. I work with people who’ve spent years saying “I’m fine” while feeling disconnected from themselves, from others, or from the life they want to live. Therapy can be a space to understand those patterns and explore who you are, what you value, and how you want to live.

You might look like you're coping, but deep down feel anxious and depressed. Stress may be affecting your sleep and overall wellbeing. Perhaps you've become used to putting yourself last, hiding how you really feel, or masking parts of yourself to fit in.
Relationships can suffer when you feel unseen, disconnected or lonely.
As an experienced couples and individual therapist, I offer a warm, supportive space to explore what's happening in your life. Our work together allows you to feel heard and accepted, not judged.

Loss changes us. It can turn our world upside down, whether it comes through the death of a loved one, the loss of a cherished pet, the end of a relationship, loss of identity, or a major life change. Each of these losses carries its own weight, and no two experiences are ever the same. These experiences often bring a range of valid emotions such as anxiety, sadness, anger, exhaustion, overwhelm, feeling lost, or a sense of being disconnected from oneself. I specialise in supporting clients navigating this difficult times, and I draw from my extensive training, working at Macmillan Cancer Support, and my own personal experience.

Many of the people I work with feel they've lost touch with who they are. They've spent much of their lives living in the 'shoulds' - people-pleasing, striving for perfection, masking who they are, or trying to meet others' expectations or their own high standards, until they've lost sight of what they genuinely think, feel and need. Perhaps you're feeling anxious, burnt out, overwhelmed, stuck in self-doubt, struggling in your relationships, or simply wondering why, despite doing all the right things, life doesn't feel as fulfilling as you hoped.

What a fortunate encounter. You have landed here. It can be unnerving to arrive somewhere or meet someone for the first time. My aim is to create with you a safe sanctuary, in which to contemplate your journey. I will be a witness and a facilitator in your exploration of what is burdening you, of what it means to be you, as you create new possibilities or grow or whatever it is that brings you on this path. If you are committed to yourself, curious and willing, then I am here for you. You can read about my experience and qualifications here. Thanks

Do you want space to talk about things that once seemed ok but are no longer working? Are you feeling disconnected from your relationships? Maybe something just feels…off, and you would like help to get back on track. It isn't always easy to know what that feeling is connected to so maybe a conversation with me would help you to untangle that and find some understanding.
If some of this sounds familiar, drop me an email and together we can explore your thoughts and begin curating a life that feels more aligned with who you really are.
