All manner of emotions leave an impression deep inside. Somehow we seemingly put it all into a manageable place and move on. But then something triggers us whereby we feel unable to manage our emotions. I have experienced such feelings and sought professional help in the past. I process my work and self with my Clinical Advisor on a regular basis. It has been 20 plus years since I qualified as a Person Centred counsellor and then as a nurse. Having been involved with nursing and Hospice bereavement support in the past I believe in the power of listening with empathy to each persons story and together for better resolution.

Confused about where you're at in life or what's next? Want to be more open and engaged in relationships? My aim is to help you get to know yourself better and move you forward from where you might feel stuck. Everyone is different and counselling is not a 'one size fits all' approach. Managing life's difficulties thrown upon us can be challenging in many ways, but I will be alongside you every step of the way. Through our relationship I will help you unravel your thoughts and feelings but I ask for self-compassion; it may be bumpy.

You may be feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Perhaps past experiences still affect your confidence, relationships or sense of direction. You might be facing a life transition, university, career change, identity questions or loss and want reassurance that you’re making the right choices. I offer a safe, non-judgemental space where we work collaboratively and at your pace, using an integrative, humanistic, trauma-informed approach to help you feel more grounded, confident and emotionally secure, and better able to understand yourself, your need, build a more fulfilled & balanced life

I utilise a blend of positive psychotherapeutic enquiry and solution focussed approaches, to identify and reframe the cause of limiting beliefs and behaviours. I tailor my approach and work with individuals and couples. Whether you need to overcome a traumatic experience, difficulties in relationships, self esteem, anxiety or coaching to provide skills to transition through life, manage a situation or perform at your best. Building an independent, safe and trusting environment for you to explore issues and challenges in life: both work and/or personal is important for me.

Hello and Welcome, Life can indeed be difficult at times. Many are struggling with mental health in ways that are no longer manageable. Our past and present hurts, our unprocessed feelings can rise to the surface. We find ourselves thinking, feeling and acting in ways that do not reflect who we want to be. Some of us have Grief, Trauma or Addiction that we just can’t seem to work through. As a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist with a PHD(Hon), Master Degree and EMDR(Accredited), I've seen thousands come through my door, with various presenting issues and undergo genuine transformation, healing and leave with hope for the future.

I have experience in military environments and the charity sector.
You might be here because you are struggling with difficult thoughts and emotions and you are looking for someone to talk to in order to help you make sense of it and to find some relief. I hope that I might be able to help. I am a psychotherapist working with adults in weekly psychodynamic therapy. The aim of the therapy is to take time to discover and understand the layers of your mind; how you have come to interact with the world and people around you via the experiences in your past, and how that affects your life now. This understanding can bring a deep-seated sense of relief and an opportunity for long-term change.

I want to sit with you as you reconnect with your inner strength, build resilience, and move toward a life that makes sense to you, meaningful, balanced, and truly your own. Starting counselling can feel daunting, I want you to know that you don’t have to have everything figured out before you start, I didn't. You simply need a space where you are seen, heard, and respected,  exactly as you are. Therapy doesn't work because I have the 'right' answers, it works because over time, we work together building a safe theraputic relationship, which allows difficult feelings, thoughts and experiences to be explored at your pace.

I understand that considering to approach someone to discuss private and intimate matters is not easy, but this can be life changing. Experiencing emotional difficulties that affect your moods and behaviour are more common than you think. This can significantly impact a wide range of aspects in your day-to-day life and relationships. Therapy is often an effective way to reach a better understanding of yourself and the causes of your emotional discomfort. It may also help you to find the best way forward to overcome challenges and move on to experience meaningful life improvements simultaneously alleviating pressures and stress.
