Are you finding it hard to cope, feeling anxious, overwhelmed or burnt out. Or do you have a sense of being stuck? Perhaps life has changed somehow, leaving you feeling lost, lonely, or managing a lot for the people around you, but quietly struggling yourself. I work with adults and young people dealing with anxiety, ADHD, autism, trauma, bereavement, chronic illness, and the aftermath of sexual abuse. I also support people who are caring for a neurodivergent child or young person with mental health challenges, or an ageing parent — demanding roles that can quietly erode your confidence, wellbeing and sense of self over time.
Whatever brings you here, I'll work with you at your pace, with genuine curiosity, compassion and no judgement. My approach is neuroaffirmative and trauma-informed, shaped by professional training and my lived experience of neurodivergence and trauma. I won't try to 'fix' you with a one-size-all model – instead we'll work out together what's right for you.
Therapy with me is about slowing down to think about and process what's happened to you, so you can make sense of your emotions, feel supported and validated – and develop practical, evidence-based strategies to help you move forward. If you’re wondering how therapy with me could support you, please get in touch to arrange a free introductory call.

I draw on psychodynamic approaches to explore how your early experiences may have shaped you; Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help connect your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours; and humanistic approaches that focus on your present-day emotional experience. I tailor therapy to your individual needs, life experiences, and therapeutic goals. When appropriate, I also use coaching techniques.
