You know something isn't right, but you can't quite put your finger on why. You might be feeling anxious, exhausted, or stuck in patterns you don't fully understand, or in a life that doesn't feel quite like yours anymore. I help people heal from trauma and change unhelpful patterns and beliefs so you can feel calmer and more confident, reach your goals, improve your relationships and live a more fulfilling life. I will support you to understand why you feel the way you do and to actually move forward, not just make sense of things.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or held back by low self-esteem, feeling misunderstood, you are not alone. I work with adults (18+) who want to understand themselves more deeply, heal, and grow into a more, grounded version of themselves.
Clients often come to see me with a sense of feeling overwhelmed, worried, they might struggle with focus, overthinking, sleeping patterns, relationships and want to explore this in relation to their Autism and/or ADHD. Some clients come not knowing the reasons for their struggles and through the sessions we can explore what might be going on underneath the surface.

Reaching out for help takes courage, particularly if your self-esteem and confidence are low. But, if you want to make changes in your life then you may need support. People come to counselling for all sorts of reasons; anxiety, relationship issues, depression, bereavement, trauma etc. Perhaps you feel inhibited, have unhealthy patterns of behaviour or your emotions may be hijacking your ability to respond and keep perspective. Whatever the reason, the chances are you are feeling deeply distressed. You don’t have to keep struggling alone. Together we can work out what is causing you to feel threatened, overwhelmed or empty.

I can help you to relax and improve your sleep, helping you to draw on your own innate resources and regain your independence.
I have always been aware of, and interested in, the relationship between emotional and physical well-being. It is now widely acknowledged that the state of our mind and emotions impacts on our physical being, with our bodies expressing emotional distress as some form of ill health or disease. It is not uncommon for unwanted behaviours like smoking, drinking or eating to excess, or other forms of compulsive and addictive behaviours, to become problematic when emotional issues and psychological trauma are not addressed effectively and our needs are not met in balance.

Sleep or Insomnia Counsellors
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.
Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.
Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.
What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
