My down to earth nature empowers me to be accessible, approachable and non-judgmental which is an essential part of a successful working therapeutic relationship.
I am an integrative counsellor that has worked in person centered organisations but I have a strong affiliation towards Psychodynamic counselling. I integrate other ways of working such as transactional analysis and Existential thinking. One of my beliefs is that the relationship between counsellor and client is of paramount importance.

Are you feeling a growing distance in your relationship — lonely, unheard, or going round in the same difficult patterns?
I offer a calm, supportive space for online therapy where you can talk things through at your own pace. I usually work in ongoing 50-minute sessions, but I understand that isn’t right for everyone. Some people come short term to focus on something specific, others stay longer and go deeper. We can find what feels manageable and right for you.

I work with a wide range of issues, including anxiety, low mood, stress, trauma, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, burnout, life transitions, and feeling stuck or disconnected from yourself.
I believe every person’s experience is valid and deserving of care. You might come to counselling feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of why things feel heavy, or you may arrive wanting to gently explore past experiences, trauma, or long-held patterns that no longer serve you. You may have clear reasons for seeking support, or you may simply know that something doesn’t feel right and want a space to explore that without pressure or judgment. My role is to offer a safe, compassionate, and accepting space that adapts to what you need, where you are met as you are, at your own pace.

This non directive approach is the focus of the work, in addition to this, I believe self-compassion ( the process of applying kindness to yourself), is something that appears to be much harder than we are led to believe but remains a key factor in developing a healthy relationship with our self.

You work hard, you enjoy work and you have meaningful relationships, but something is missing.
I work with clients to help them achieve a sense of internal calm. So often clients don't know exactly what they are feeling, just that it isn't good and they don't want to feel this way any longer. Together we get to the source of your discomfort. And gently we begin to understand how it shows up in your day to day.

You may be feeling stuck in patterns of anxiety, overwhelm, or low mood, or noticing how past experiences continue to affect your relationships, emotions or sense of safety.
Many of the people I work with have experienced childhood trauma, attachment wounds or long periods of stress and may find themselves caught in cycles of anxiety, overwhelm or disconnection. You might notice yourself moving between fight, flight, freeze or shutdown responses, even when you’re trying your best to change things.

Hi, I’m Ash, the founder of Sonder Therapies, based in Frome. Deciding to reach out for support can be a difficult but significant step and Sonder Therapies was created with that in mind. Sonder is the recognition that each person, from strangers on the street to loved ones in our lives, has a complex and meaningful story as vivid and complex as our own. This word captures my approach to therapy - a deep commitment to seeing you as a unique individual with your own experiences, dreams, and challenges. It is a reminder that healing often grows from understanding our connections to others and the world around us.

I am a registered therapist with the BACP, with over 10 years’ experience supporting people through a range of mental health and relationship difficulties, including experiences of abuse and domestic abuse.
My approach is integrative, which means I draw on different ways of working, including person-centred, psychodynamic, CBT, systemic and existential therapy. In practice, this means I adapt to you as an individual, rather than expecting you to fit a particular model or way of thinking.

FAQ - About Couples Therapy
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
