Please contact me via email as a first port of call so we can arrange a telephone call. Are experiences from your past currently limiting your present and your future? Are you struggling to achieve your potential due to the constant management of anxiety, depression, stress and relational difficulties? I integrate approaches such as EMDR, mindfulness, sensorimotor or body-based work and psychoeducation to help my clients better understand where their difficulties have come from, how to manage and reduce symptoms and finally to process the trauma they are carrying from the past. If this sounds like it could help you, please read on.

If you’re struggling with the impact of sexual or domestic violence, you may feel anxious, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode. Trauma can manifest in many ways—difficulty trusting others, emotional numbness, feeling constantly on edge, or struggling with self-worth. These are not signs of weakness; they are your mind and body’s way of trying to protect you. Healing from trauma isn’t just about talking—it’s about reconnecting with yourself. I integrate somatic approaches that focus on the connection between your body and mind, helping you release stored trauma and develop a sense of safety within yourself.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. We all need support in life and at times, we reach out to therapy to provide us with that support.

I can offer you a non-judgemental space to explore whatever it is you need support with. Together, we can work through your fears, your difficult memories or whatever is hindering you in life.

We all experience different challenges at different times throughout our lives. This can be overwhelming and sometimes hard to process alone. Counselling is a safe place to explore life events and the emotions, thoughts and behaviour they bring with them, in a non-judgmental and confidential environment. Together we can unearth the way you want to think, feel or act; your future goal, and as a team we can work towards achieving autonomy. Through the supportive and empathic working space I provide, on a one to one basis, we can address issues past and present and uncover useful coping mechanisms to embrace challenges old and new.

Sometimes life can throw up unexpected challenges and we find that things that wouldn't normally bother us do. You may find yourself stuck, and unable to move forward; to make the change you so badly desire. It may be that you find yourself feeling anxious, depressed or stressed leaving you constantly worrying and struggling to sleep. Perhaps, you are having problems at work or in your relationships, or maybe you have suffered at the hands of others which impacts on your emotions and behaviours now. If any of this resonates with you, counselling can help develop the self-awareness you need and give you the tools to move you forward.

Hi. At times we are challenged in life and we may need help to work through the issues that can affect us. Whatever we are experiencing, it can impact on our whole life greatly. At times admitting we need help can be a long and hard journey and just getting to this point of looking for a therapist means you’ve addressed so much already and that you wish to take the next step. It's finding the right therapist for you, just like any other relationship is how you connect that enables you to feel safe and be open so you can work through your issues. So take your time to find the right one as that relationship can help you so much.

As a therapist working with children, I offer calm from the storm they may be feeling. With my years of knowledge and experience I am able to provide the space for your child to work through those challenging emotions and life events. Children don't always have the words they need to communicate how they are feeling, this is why play therapy is a powerful tool to help children to express their emotions non-verbally, if they prefer. My background in working therapeutically with children who are looked after and schools, means I have the knowledge and skills to help alleviate these difficult emotions and behaviours.
