Do you put on a brave face but feel different on the inside? Perhaps empty and numb, or overwhelmed by emotions? Do you wake up with a sense of dread? I know how tough life can be at times and how lonely it feels when no one seems to understand. If you’re wondering when you’ll feel happy or hopeful again, or you’re worrying about the future and fearing the worst, or maybe you’re struggling with a big change and a sense of who you are; I’d like to help. Being able to talk freely to someone, without fear of judgement or shame, can be a huge relief. Feeling seen and truly heard, and accepted for who you are can be liberating.

I support adults affected by low self esteem, anxiety, depression, or grief, often those who have experienced the death of a loved one, a major life transition or trauma, or childhood sexual abuse. Our work together can help ease your pain, and support you to feel calmer, to cope more easily, and to feel better about yourself. You're not alone.

I see people on a weekly basis at my therapy rooms in central Exeter and also online. I offer a free initial call or meeting, giving us a chance to get to know each other a little before you commit to anything. It’s important you choose a counsellor you feel comfortable with. Drop me an email to arrange a time to have an informal chat and see how I can help.

My style is conversational, collaborative, and compassionate to build a relationship anchored in safety and trust. I'm here to listen, to see the world through your eyes, and to offer a different perspective. Together, we'll learn about your individual parts (mind, body, emotions, behaviours, relationships), your internal battles, and your coping mechanisms. What helps, and what holds you back.
