Hello and Welcome, Life has indeed become complex. Many of us are now struggling with our mental health in ways that are no longer manageable. Our past and present hurts, our unprocessed feelings have risen to the surface. We find ourselves thinking, feeling and acting in ways that do not reflect who we want to be. Some of us have Grief, Trauma or Addiction that we just can’t seem to work through. As a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist with a Master Degree and EMDR Accredited, I've seen thousands come through my door, with various presenting issues and undergo genuine transformation, healing and leave with hope for the future.

With many years' experience in care and counselling settings, I have come to recognise that we can change profoundly through the therapeutic process. As I understand it, we are ever shifting throughout the lifecourse, yet are sometimes frustrated by repeating moments of stuckness. As a BPC-accredited psychotherapist, with a PhD exploring relational fields in care through a psychoanalytic lens, our work would involve developing awareness of both those internal and external obstacles to discover greater freedoms in life. My specialism is in palliative psychotherapy, supporting people with chronic illness, deep grief and loss.

Emotional and mental pain cannot be seen in a scan or measured in a blood test. It is invisible, yet may have a painful impact on your life, relationships and wellbeing. I am here to offer you a safe, completely non-judgemental and confidential space where you can share your thoughts and feelings with me. I was trained to help you work through them. I am an integrative psychotherapist, and completed an MA with distinction from IATE & the University of East London. My holistic approach means that I weave together many techniques and pay attention to my client’s mind, body and spirit.

I specialise in supporting parents through the various challenges that being a parent brings. Perhaps you’re a new parent and are struggling to adjust to your ‘new normal’. Perhaps you are struggling with feelings of anxiety, depression, stress, overwhelm or a feeling of being ‘stuck’. Maybe you are experiencing disproportionate levels of anger which you recognise are having a negative impact on you and your family. Perhaps you are experiencing difficulties in your relationship. Is a traumatic birth experience still affecting you? If so, I can help. I specialise in practical & positive, brief therapy.

Are you looking for a safe space with an experienced trauma-informed therapist? I offer CBT & EMDR to mothers and parents to tackle low self-esteem, anxiety, & trauma/ PTSD. Perhaps you are having strong reactions to things, or maybe you are struggling with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or nightmares. You might be having trouble sleeping or issues with food or body image. Maybe you feel disconnected, irritable, guilty, and not the parent/ partner/ person that you want to be. When things feel tough, working with someone who you feel 'gets it' and knowing the space is safe and free from judgement is really important.
