Do you sense that something in your life isn't quite working? Maybe you’re stuck in a familiar pattern, struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, or relationship problems that you can't quite name. Maybe you're ready to explore this even if you're not sure where to start. I offer a space where you can slow down and look honestly at your thoughts, feelings, behaviours and relationships. Drawing on an integrative approach, we work collaboratively to help you understand yourself more deeply. Not just to cope but to genuinely change. My aim is to offer support designed and tailored with you and your needs at the centre.

You may look like you're coping on the outside, but inside you feel exhausted. Constantly overthinking, worrying what people think, struggling to say no, or feeling like you're never good enough despite how hard you try. Many people I work with have spent years blaming themselves, not realising these struggles often stem from deeper beliefs about self-worth shaped by past experiences and relationships. As a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist and published author of Awaken Your Worth: A CBT Workbook for People Pleasing, Perfectionism, Low Self-Worth and Anxiety, I help people uncover the root cause and create lasting change.

I work with people from all walks of life. Anyone who has spent time feeling unseen, unheard, or overwhelmed— anxiety or low mood, navigating family tensions, work pressures, or wondering if a late ADHD diagnosis might finally make sense of years of masking and exhaustion. If you want to feel understood, calmer, & more connected to who you really are beneath the coping and holding‑it‑all‑together. You’re longing for a space where you don’t have to perform or pretend, where your feelings are taken seriously, and where you can talk freely without judgement. Your goal isn’t perfection—it’s relief, clarity, and the chance to feel heard

Together, we can create a safe space, to explore helpful ways to move forward, build resilience and live better.

Accepting that you need the help of someone else can be hard. Making the decision to attend counselling can be even harder. Partners, peers and family may not understand, you may feel like you've failed somehow, you may feel like you are not enough. This is far from the truth however. Attending counselling is often the first step on a journey that allows us to confront our difficulties, face our fears, become more self-aware and ultimately take a path that can lead to a better life.

Hi, I'm Vicky to begin I’d like to acknowledge how difficult it can be making that first step to recognising you may need some support. It takes courage to admit you may need a helping hand, or someone to help bear that heavy weight you may be carrying. Something I believe most of us need at some point in our lives. It can be difficult to turn to those closest to us for fear we may be judged or not truly listened to. So, I offer a safe confidential space for you to be heard, and to explore the issues that may be troubling you, in a non-judgemental way. Somewhere you can lead at your own pace.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or stuck in cycles that no longer serve you. Perhaps you're struggling to stay focused, keep up with responsibilities, or make sense of a relationship that's become distant or difficult. Whether it’s the mental load, ongoing stress, or the fallout from a recent breakup or argument, what you want most is clarity, relief, and a way forward. You want to feel more in control of your emotions, more confident in how you relate to others, and more like yourself again.

Are you struggling to balance a various life roles with your personal needs? I work with individuals and couples in the UK and internationally who feel disconnected from their purpose. Clients often come to me feeling stuck, overwhelmed by expectations, and wrestling with stress or emptiness. Together, we’ll explore the underlying causes of these feelings, move beyond the pressure to "just tough it out," and help you reclaim your authentic narrative. Insight tells us that motivation rarely arrives on its own; it is the act of stepping forward that creates the momentum for change.

I work with people from all walks of life, with a particular interest in supporting men - who are far less likely to seek support and far more likely to need it. Clients often come to me feeling low, anxious, stuck, or short-tempered, sometimes without knowing why. Others are dealing with stress, burnout, grief, relationship difficulties, or past experiences still affecting the present. There's no threshold you need to meet. I work in a person-centred way: no scripts, no homework, no being told what your problem is. I listen properly, ask questions, and help you hear yourself more clearly so you can move forward in your own way.

You feel different, and you have for a long time. You have carried silence, or shame, or questions that never quite let go. Many of the people I work with are queer, neurodiverse, or moving through change that feels heavier than they let on. Together we step outside the box of just talking. We cannot always think our way out of what hurts, we have to feel it, move with it, and live our way into something new. I work online, wherever you are in the UK. If you are ready for a space that welcomes the whole of you, I offer a free 15 minute consultation. As Tagore wrote, the butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.

Taking the first step towards counselling can feel daunting, especially if you’re used to coping on your own. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, struggling in relationships, or simply finding life more difficult than usual. Whatever has brought you here, you’re welcome exactly as you are. At the heart of my work is the belief that everyone deserves a space where they can talk openly and honestly without fear of judgement. Together we can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace. Many people come to counselling worried about being judged or misunderstood; with me, you will be heard and accepted.

Men's Issues Counsellors
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.

How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.

What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
