I work with adults who may be experiencing anxiety, low mood, stress, life transitions, relationship difficulties, loss, trauma, low self-esteem, or feeling overwhelmed by everyday life. I also support neurodivergent clients, including those with ADHD and autism, who may be seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their experiences. Together, we create a safe, non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, gain clarity, and develop the confidence and tools to move forward.

I offer a confidential, safe space and time for clients to explore any concerns or problems they are experiencing. During our sessions you will have the opportunity to discuss whatever issues you are struggling with in order to reach a deeper understanding of yourself, others and your circumstances, and most crucially to identify anything that you wish to change and work towards your goals. Together in our sessions, I will work sensitively so as to strengthen and empower you in the here-and-now to deal with recent events, on-going or long-standing issues that may have surfaced in your life.

My specialization in addiction and domestic violence enables me to offer informed and sensitive guidance to those navigating these challenging realities.
As an integrated counsellor, I am dedicated to providing a profound level of care, compassion, empathy, and understanding within a non-judgmental environment. With my own lived experience regarding the issues i specialize in i understand that Life can often lead individuals to feel stuck or hopeless, leaving them in search of a way forward. Many find it difficult to confide in family members or friends, making professional support an essential resource. Recognizing that each individual's experience is unique, I tailor my counselling approach to meet the specific needs of my clients.

I work with the following presenting issues: anxiety and low self-esteem, complex-trauma, sexual abuse, bereavement and loss, self-harm, domestic violence, family and relational issues, depression and more.
I believe therapy gives people a regular and confidential space to talk about their worries, problems or a chance to explore more about themselves; to gain a new or different perspective. This can lead to positive and proactive changes in how they feel about themselves, their relationships, as well as future-proofing their thinking and behaviour. I am a UKCP accredited Integrative Psychotherapist and also a UKCP Accredited Integartive Child Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. I have worked with children and adults since 2017.

I work with adults who may be feeling anxious, low in mood, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that are affecting their wellbeing or relationships. Some people come when things in their life or relationships have started to feel confusing, draining, or difficult to make sense of. Others may be struggling with confidence, self-worth, or a general sense of feeling “not quite themselves”. Often, people have been managing on their own for a long time before reaching out for support.

Domestic Abuse Counsellors
What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognise that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.

When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.

What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.

How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
