You may feel constantly on edge, overwhelmed by emotions, or stuck in patterns that no longer make sense. Perhaps you find yourself overthinking, people-pleasing, or doubting yourself in relationships. You might feel disconnected, exhausted from trying to cope, or unsure why certain situations trigger strong reactions. Often these experiences are linked to earlier trauma, loss, or growing up in an environment where your needs were not consistently met. As a trauma-informed Counselling Psychologist, I offer a calm, supportive space to explore how these experiences continue to shape the way you feel and respond today.
I work integratively, drawing on approaches including EMDR and other evidence-based therapies. Together we develop a clear understanding of what’s going on for you and tailor the work so it feels safe, practical, and genuinely helpful.
Reaching out can feel daunting, but it is often the first step towards things beginning to feel lighter. Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful and down-to-earth, and I work collaboratively so we can understand what’s going on and find a way forward together. You’re welcome to get in touch to arrange a free 15-minute call.
