If you or someone you know are stuck trying to live with anxiety, low mood, loss or judgement through having neuro diversity (dyslexia & dyspraxia), I have 15 years experience and training in supporting clients; children and adults with these issues. I also work with clients struggling with lives impacted by difficult childhoods through trauma. Talking therapy is part of the support I offer, sharing reduces isolation and shame and enables clients to think differently about what has happened to them. I offer a nurturing environment where a client is treated as an individual with kindness, active listening and no judgment.

I became a counseIlor as a result of my own personal journey. I have experienced first hand how powerful counselling can be and have seen the positive effect that counselling has had on those that I have worked with.

It takes courage to become truly and confidently oneself. I combine modern therapeutic practice with a mindfulness based approach, which uses the deep relationship between body and mind to bring back mental, emotional and physical balance. I use a a mixture of counselling and yoga combined as needed, to address imbalances of mind and body. Yoga therapy will help you to: develop insight into what is happening inside you, psychologically and emotionally. cultivate the presence of mind to be able to feel your way into uncomfortable experiences and disarm them, calm the nervous system and enhance autonomy and well-being.

Hello and welcome, I am here to offer you a safe space allowing you the time to pause and explore what is troubling you. Together we can try and make sense of it. My approach combines talking therapies with creative interventions adapted to your needs. Your might have a clear idea what you want to work through in counselling or it might be a jumble of feelings and thoughts. We all get lost in the chaos of our thoughts and feelings. Counselling helps us tune into and listening to our inner wisdom to help us move forwards with clarity to a more settled and empowered place. Whatever challenges you are facing, my hope is that I can help
