Life can feel overwhelming, especially when anxiety, overthinking or emotional exhaustion start to take over. You may be coping on the outside while feeling stuck or disconnected inside. Sometimes the hardest part isn’t what happened, but carrying it alone for too long. Many people come to therapy feeling tired of being strong, confused by their emotions, or disconnected from themselves. I offer a quiet, thoughtful space to slow down and gently explore what’s beneath the surface—without pressure, labels or judgement...

Feeling anxious, low, or overwhelmed? Talking therapy helps, but some stress lives deeper in the body. Breathwork is a powerful, science-backed way to release stored tension and regulate your nervous system, for healing that starts from within.

Everyone faces challenges, dilemmas, fears, problems and issues in their lives. Sometimes we can manage to cope. Sometimes our usual coping methods don't seem to work. We find ourselves struggling and we need someone to talk to, someone who will listen and to somewhere we can talk about our feelings and thoughts and to explore opportunities for change - to get our lives back on track again.

I take an integrative, relational approach, drawing on CBT, person-centred, psychodynamic, and solution-focused therapy.
People come to me when they’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, or caught in patterns they can’t seem to change. This may show up as stress, low mood, relationship difficulties, overthinking, or coping strategies such as alcohol, substance use, or compulsive behaviours. I also work with ADHD, including emotional overwhelm, rejection sensitivity, impulsivity, and self-esteem challenges. Together, we explore what’s happening beneath the surface, including stress and past experiences, and begin to make sense of these patterns in a safe, supportive space where change can feel possible.

Do you feel stuck, lost and alone in life? Do you feel overwhelmed by your problems and struggle to understand why you feel so unhappy and unfulfilled? Do you worry about letting people get emotionally close to you and so tend to distance yourself from others? Yet then feel isolated and deeply unhappy? Have you always felt different or as though there was something wrong with you? Do you have a longing to understand yourself and feel an emotional connection with people in your life? I have worked with many people with these kinds of problems. It is likely that you experienced emotional neglect or trauma as a child.

Does your child struggle to talk about their thoughts and feelings? Do they struggle to identify their emotions? Art Therapy could help. In Art Therapy sessions, we use art, play and movement to create a safe space to explore thoughts and feelings without pressure. Art Therapy has been shown to benefit clients by reducing symptoms of anxiety, low mood and supporting emotional regulation. Children and young people can begin to understand their emotions and learn how to better communicate with those around them.

I am a very experienced therapist and Depth Psychologist having worked within the NHS and Private Practice for 30 years. I am a Senior Jungian Analyst, a Training Analyst, an Examiner and Supervisor. I specialise in working with people experiencing relationship difficulties, those suffering from depression, anxiety, low self esteem and intrusive thoughts. An emotional crisis is a call for personal growth, for insight and to a new path through life. The belief that symptoms have meaning leads to a more positive approach and outcome, so that suffering is not in vain but the prelude to a more meaningful life.
