I have lived experience of the armed forces - anyone in a similar position can feel reassured that I can relate to their experiences.
A warm welcome - I work with adults who are looking for long or short term therapy. If you find yourself feeling lost, confused, like something just isn't right, or something is missing, or you feel isolated, lonely or have low mood, then please get in touch with me. I will be right beside you as you journey towards feeling more complete, more whole, more yourself. Perhaps you've forgotten what that feels like, perhaps you are not sure if you have ever known. Life can really test us, whether that was from the moment we were born, or through things that have happened along the way. Please get in touch, I am here to help.

Coming to therapy can be a difficult decision to make. When we are having difficulty in our lives our thinking can become unclear or unhelpful and we do things that we think might help in the short term, but can perhaps have a negative effect in the long term. This can result in becoming trapped in unhealthy cycles where you may also be experiencing unpleasant emotions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) can help to unravel the complex human thoughts and emotions that sometimes contribute to being less than at our best, and find new ways of thinking and being to move forward.

Are you navigating a period where life no longer feels familiar, after loss, separation, relocation, illness, or a major life transition? Perhaps you’ve been holding everything together for a long time, yet quietly feel unmoored, uncertain, or unlike yourself. You don’t have to face this period of change alone. I work with adults facing significant change who want a calm, thoughtful space to make sense of what has shifted. Many of the people I support are capable, reflective individuals who find themselves at an unexpected crossroads — grieving not only what has been lost, but questioning who they are now and how to move forward.

You may be carrying something that feels too heavy or too confusing to put into words, grief that won't lift, anxiety that shadows everything, or a sense that old patterns keep repeating no matter how hard you try. Perhaps you've experienced trauma, loss, or a pain that others haven't fully understood. My clients are adults across the UK who are ready to look deeper, not for quick answers, but for real understanding. Many come with depression, trauma, complex grief, infant loss, or relationship difficulties. Some come from diverse cultural backgrounds navigating identity, belonging, and emotional pain. What they share is courage.

Are you someone who has struggled to find a genuinely safe, understanding and inclusive therapeutic or reflective space? Or have not yet found a professional who actually demonstrates having the expertise they tell you about? Are you still on the fence about taking that step forward? I understand. I have successfully helped many people who have felt anxious or hopeless about change. I have also worked with people who felt misguided or even harmed by social media advice, previous therapy or their workplace.

I help strong, capable, and dependable individuals - the ones everyone relies on - who carry their own needs and everyone else’s on their shoulders. From the outside they appear resilient and in control, but inside they are often exhausted. I offer a space where they no longer have to “handle it” alone.

Deeply self-aware and neurodivergent people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or exhausted from constantly holding everything together. Some of my clients come to counselling feeling lost in questions of identity, belonging, relationships, self-worth, grief, trauma, life transitions, or the lasting impact of difficult experiences. They may be struggling to understand themselves, navigate change, process emotions, or find a way forward that feels authentic and sustainable. At the heart of my work is helping people see themselves as whole human beings, not problems to be fixed.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure why certain emotions or body sensations keep showing up. Many people I work with feel disconnected from themselves or stuck in overwhelming patterns they can’t quite explain, often for a long period of time. I offer a calm, supportive space to explore what’s happening in your body and nervous system, helping you feel more grounded, regulated and connected again. This way of working can be particularly helpful if anxiety, stress or trauma show up physically through tension, fatigue, pain or shutdown.
