When you find yourself dealing with an unexpected life event or feelings that are overwhelming and hard to cope with, I feel it is the power of connection in relationship that can be the greatest source of support. This emphasis on connection allows us to create a therapeutic relationship where focussing on your needs is at the heart of the work together. Having experience of working in private practice, in a secondary school and with elite athletes I aim to support you in understanding your emotions and behaviours, to try to make sense of what may be going on for you underneath the surface.

I work with people who want to take time to understand themselves and build skills that will support them for a lifetime. In therapy sessions, we’ll work together to understand current problems and how they came about, and find useful tools you can use long-term to solve them. I specialize in anxiety/worry, low mood, self-esteem, relationship issues, OCD, emotional dysregulation, and recovering from trauma. I love helping clients discover how their emotions work and build confidence in themselves and their relationships, to create more fulfilling and balanced lives.

Do you find yourself repeating the same patterns and behaviours? Perhaps for years, even decades? Is the simple act of getting through the day (and night) becoming unmanageable and overwhelming? Or perhaps you feel numb, stuck, confused even? Perhaps you do not even know where to begin or what you are looking for? Are you finally ready to let go of what no longer serves you and embrace challenge, change, and desire - rejuvenating your relationships not only with others, but with yourself?

Are you a new parent experiencing intrusive thoughts or mood swings which worry you? Perhaps you feel hateful towards your partner, or are full of regret. Alternatively past events may be very alive in your mind & may need to be processed with an experienced Therapist. If you need a place to be heard; to express yourself & explore difficulties then I can help you. I have a relational approach based in the psychodynamic tradition, which means we can explore & think about how your past may be affecting your present. Integrating years of experience & training I will help you move forwards by understanding yourself better.

Hello and welcome. Making the decision to begin therapy or counselling can be anxiety provoking. It is important, therefore, to find the right therapist or counsellor for you, as this is a vital element of the psychotherapeutic process. Finding a therapist or counsellor you feel safe with and with whom you have a sense of connection will enable you to explore the issues you are experiencing. People of all ethnicities and social backgrounds seek therapy for a plethora of reasons, and I welcome patients whatever their culture, ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, or gender.

Does life sometimes feel like an overwhelming weight you can’t put down? Are anxiety, stress, procrastination, or self-doubt leaving you stuck and unsure how to navigate your emotions, relationships, or work? Do you battle with imposter syndrome, wish you could be more assertive, or struggle to handle conflicts? Perhaps a relentless inner critic replays past mistakes, leaving you drained and uncertain about setting boundaries or finding forgiveness. If any of this feels familiar, you’re not alone. Together, we can work to understand these challenges, rediscover your inner strength, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Are you finding your marriage or relationship to be really hard right now? Is it full of tension, disappointment or heartache? Perhaps you are arguing more and you just don't look forward to spending time with your partner anymore. Do you wish you could feel the way you felt about them when you first decided to make a commitment to each other? I'm guessing you want to feel seen and heard, like you matter and like your thoughts and feelings matter, too. You don't just want to be going through the motions of being close, but want something that feels special and secure.
