There are times in everyone's lives when they feel that they could benefit from some support. Perhaps you are feeling depressed or anxious, struggling to cope with life in general or just 'stuck'. Counselling provides the availability of time and space in order for you to explore any problems you may be encountering in your daily life or any issues that may be troubling you from the past. My style of working allows the counselling to be unique to you and focused on your life experiences, enabling you to examine your feelings and work towards improving your well-being. If you have any specific goals I also offer coaching techniques.

As a face-to-face & online integrative counsellor and psychotherapist I provide therapy for a range of issues, big and small, over the short (6-12 sessions), medium (18-24 sessions) and long term (1+ years).
There are many reasons why you might be seeking counselling. Your issues might have been triggered by recent events or could stretch far back to past abuse or narcissistic control. There might be anxiety, low self-esteem, feelings of isolation, exclusion, deep loneliness, overwhelm or numbness. I can help with these issues. I have also had specialist training in trauma (PTSD & dissociation) and can offer emotional freedom technique for regulation and processing. I also work with the specific challenges that come with dyslexia, autism (ASD) and ADHD.

My ideal clients are high-achieving women - especially Black women - in senior, high-pressure roles who feel overwhelmed by expectations and the weight of being “the strong one.” They often struggle with anxiety, disconnection, and self-doubt, yet feel reluctant to show vulnerability. They want to reconnect with their authentic selves, find balance, and develop emotional resilience to navigate career and life transitions with greater confidence and wellbeing.

Hello, I'm Penny. I am an accredited BAPT Play Therapist based in Sevenoaks. I somehow (!) have over 15 years of experience working with children and families, often during the most vulnerable times in their lives. Before training as a Play Therapist, I worked as a Social Worker — a job I adored. However, I often wished I had more opportunities to truly sit alongside the children I supported and be part of their healing journeys. That’s exactly what I believe play therapy offers. Play therapy isn’t something you do — it’s a way of being. I wholeheartedly believe in its power and the positive impact it can have on all children.

I am passionate and committed to supporting people develop a better sense of compassionate awareness within relation to themselves. I believe within each of us lies the potential for healing and change, no matter what the circumstances or how deep or dark the depths of trauma and experience may be. Sometimes we need the support of someone who is familiar with the territory, to help us navigate our way through certain stages of life and to process past events that have caused pain and suffering, and that might be leading to difficulties in the present.
