It's not easy being a parent and it's not easy knowing that your child is going through a tough time.
I help children 0-16 years of age experiencing emotional, behavioural and mental health difficulties. I do this through a provision of therapeutic interventions and family support (play therapy, baby bonding, filial play coaching, DDP), in order to help children improve their emotional well-being and support them to reach their fullest potential.

Our experiences shape how we see ourselves and the world we live in. Key transitions, changes and losses may bring challenges that can prompt us to examine ourselves, what makes us happy and what we want in life. You may be experiencing stress at work, tensions in relationships or struggling with anxiety, low self-worth or depression, perhaps feeling stuck and unsure how to move forwards. This can be difficult to navigate alone. I offer a non-judgemental, curious, and supportive space to explore your experiences at your pace and together we can find ways to move towards a healing and happier state of being.

You look like you're holding it together on the outside. But inside something feels off. You're capable, thoughtful, used to being relied on but you feel anxious, empty, overwhelmed and misunderstood. Perhaps you’re questioning your direction, identity, or going through a loss or change. You’re worried about how others perceive you and want to understand why you fall back on the same patterns in relationships that lead to frustration, withdrawal or low self-esteem. You might be living by a set of rules you never consciously wrote and it’s driving self-doubt, guilt, or overthinking to the point you can’t switch off.

Do you find yourself constantly putting everyone else first, and resenting it inside? Struggling with a phobia that's taking over your life? Exhausted by complicated family dynamics, or confidence that keeps letting you down? I work with people who feel like that. I help them to figure out what's going on for them, to feel more grounded, less stuck, and to feel more like themselves again (after we've figured out who that is, sometimes!) I aim to be warm as well as direct. I won't just let you talk endlessly - I'll challenge you. In turn, you can say whatever you need to, however you need to. I'm here for it.

Life can sometimes throw unexpected challenges our way, leaving us feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward. This might be due to anxiety, health concerns, bereavement, or difficulties at work. At times like these, having a space to talk openly and be truly heard can make a real difference.

If you’re the one who holds it all together, capable on the outside, quietly running on empty underneath — this is the kind of work I love. I’m a psychotherapist in Nantwich, working with individuals living with anxiety, burnout and a relentless inner critic, and with couples who’ve drifted into feeling more like flatmates than partners. You don’t have to be in crisis to come; most of my clients aren’t.

Parenting Counsellors
What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.

When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.

How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
