I am a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and Educational Psychologist, with over 17 years’ experience of working therapeutically.
I specialise in supporting people navigating the impact of early trauma, who experience attachment difficulties and unhelpful patterns of relating. My specialism also includes supporting parents experiencing post-adoption issues and the lasting impact of their children's early relational experiences. I am able to combine adult therapy with a package of family support, in such cases. I have expertise in supporting neurodivergent individuals and families, particularly those experiencing SEND-system burnout.
My core modality is Transactional Analysis, which I integrate with Sand-Tray Therapy, Solution-Oriented Approaches, Narrative Therapy, breathwork and other holistic practices, where helpful. I offer both short-term focused work and longer-term therapy, adapting flexibly to each person’s needs. I can combine individual therapy with wider systems work.
As a woman from a North East working-class background, I understand the barriers people often face in accessing and sustaining effective therapy. These barriers, though invisible, are very real. Considering this, I offer a non-judgemental, compassionate and responsive approach. I aim to give people a sanctuary in which to think, feel and move forward.
