If you are feeling overwhelmed or disconnected we can explore what's going on for you right now, before considering long term goals to help you move to where you want to be. Anxiety and depression can lead to difficulties in relationships and your sense of self.
I can help with grief, low self esteem, neurodiversity, health concerns and many other issues as well as offering specialist support for:
birth trauma and stillbirth/miscarriage
transgender/gender identity
family estrangement
If you are having confusing emotional responses or difficulties concentrating, I'd be happy to talk with you. Please get in touch!
My training, client work and personal experiences make me ideally placed to help with pregnancy and birth trauma, estrangement, gender identity and neurodiversity. With empathy and understanding, I take time to hear your experiences and work with you to focus on a way forward, helping you find ways to improve your current situation and your outlook for 2026
I'm friendly & supportive, understanding the need for a combination of kindness and challenge at different times. It's important to find someone you feel comfortable with so I offer a free 20 minute online consultation to see if I'm the right therapist for you. I look forward to hearing from you and exploring how we can work together to achieve your aims.
