My aim is to offer a therapeutic relationship where you feel heard and understood. As a therapist, my goal is to aid you in feeling more hopeful and able to move forward in a way that feels right for you.
I am a trained Integrative Psychotherapist, with a Postgraduate Diploma, Level 2 and Level 3 Counselling Skills and a BSc in Psychology. In addition to counselling, I have worked in education for over 20 years. Within my research I have specialised in parents' mental health, and I have experience of supporting teachers, support staff and university students.
My training allows me to tailor therapy to you as an individual. I work with clients around confidence, self-esteem, and empowerment. I have supported people who feel stuck or unsure how to make changes in their lives. I specialise in working with anxiety and depression, health issues, loss, bereavement, and many other major life changes.
Many of my clients come to therapy following a late diagnosis of ADHD or autism, and we work together to build understanding, self acceptance, and a kinder relationship with themselves.
