Who am I: First of all, "welcome" and thank you for taking some time to read about me and my way of helping and/or supporting you in a therapeutic journey of self development and change, whether that be for yourself or yourself and a partner or your family. I am a fully qualified and experienced integrative counsellor and a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). My philosophy of counselling is based on the person as a whole - working on the mind, body and emotions.

Sometimes life changes suddenly in a way that we may struggle to make sense of and sometimes life can feel constrictive and harder than it should. I imagine that you are here wondering if you are able to make a change or how it may feel to try to understand what is happening for you. I believe that with a gentle and thoughtful counselling experience, you can start to understand yourself better, make sense of some of the difficulties you may have had, and find a more helpful way forward.

I work with children, adolescents and adults. If life is difficult right now and you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious or in need of support, I am able to help. I will work with you to feel safe and relaxed in your sessions, with this comes trust and the ability to work through worries in a deeper more honest way. You are always at the centre of the work. The ultimate aim is to help you find skills and confidence within yourself, to manage your emotions and feelings, so that you feel safe and stronger within life's experiences. People I have worked with in the past have experienced positive changes in their lives.

I work with RELATIONSHIP CHALLENGES. So, whether you're: a mother struggling in your relationship with your child or motherhood itself; a couple in crisis; experiencing recurring relationship problems; or still searching for that elusive romantic relationship I’m keen to work with you. I work with both individuals and couples; and I can discuss with you which one of these may be the best fit for you. I find that by exploring your personal history we can often discover the root cause of your challenges so you can begin to enjoy intimacy and connection.

I specialise in helping with relationship issues of all types, working with individuals, couples and any other relationship or family grouping. I support people with a range of issues, such as infidelity, intimacy, communications, relationship anxiety, wider family dilemmas and many more. I will work with you to address your challenges in the here and now, whilst also helping to shed a light on the root causes. Together, we will also explore what a happy future may look like. No two people are the same and so my counselling offer is bespoke for you rather than an off the shelf model.

There are many reasons you might decide to seek counselling, at any stage of your life; each reason is valid and unique to you. There might be issues related to unresolved traumas in the past, or it might be that day-to-day pressures have become challenging and are affecting you. Whatever your reason, it can be helpful to have a therapist, working together with you, forming a professional and confidential relationship - unlike any of those you might share with family and friends - wherein you are welcome to explore your concerns; thereby offering you a deeper understanding of yourself - helping you move forward.

I think it's very brave to acknowledge when there are difficulties in your life and to embark on a journey of change. It is my privilege to accompany individuals on a therapeutic process which enables them to live a more meaningful life. Our journey together can sometimes be a brief stepping stone of goal focused support, or at other times the therapeutic process is longer term and more explorative. I am passionate about supporting neurodiverse individuals as well as individuals who have lived through adverse or traumatic life experiences. I welcome enquiries from all genders and sexualities.

I have a particular focus on abuse/sexual abuse, trauma & PTSD. But whatever is troubling please do get in touch: working through current problems we may look back at childhood & unresolved past issues, making sense of how things have been for you & why behaviours have developed whilst being curious about what could be be different: what purpose is there in this challenging time? how do you want to live & what needs to change?

At times we may experience difficult emotions which we struggle to control. We may know why, or it may be a mystery to us. Wrestling with these feelings may give rise to anxiety or feeling withdrawn and low. We may also have long-standing difficulties, stemming from past experiences, that constrain our lives and compromise our relationships. Abuse, bullying and neglect can have a deep and lasting impact on our emotional wellbeing. These emotional difficulties can affect many aspects of life including sexuality, relationships, family, work, diet and physical health.

Welcome. Whatever has brought you to scroll these profiles, the right therapeutic relationship can help you be heard, seen and understood. The journey often starts in a place of discomfort: anxiety, bereavement, feeling lost, stuck or frustrated with repeated patterns of behaviour (in life and relationships) that you can't seem to shift, physical or mental health problems or the pain of old wounds that haven't healed. These crisis moments are often a call to personal growth and development, and sometimes to find a new path in life. I can offer you a safe and non-judgemental space to explore your situation and begin to move forward.

I have a broad and in-depth experience of working with survivors of childhood sexual abuse and rape, including those going through court proceedings, since 2008. I work through the therapy process, with the client, to understand how their experiences have shaped who they are today, to ultimately empower and make better choices seem more possible. I have supported many women who have experienced abortion, as well as miscarriage, stillbirth, fertility issues, IVF, egg donor through to adoption. Infidelity and sexuality are also areas where I can offer support and work towards acceptance and change.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counsellors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
