Hello and welcome, its not always easy taking this first step forward . As an experienced and BACP-registered psychodynamic counsellor (PGDip, MBACP) based in Gloucestershire I offer thoughtful support during times of confusion, loss, uncertainty and emotional difficulty. My work is guided by curiosity, helping you to explore behaviour patterns that shape your relationships, choices and well-being. I offer a confidential, reflective space where we can work together, to help you gain clarity and insight as you develop a more compassionate understanding of yourself.
I have 30 years of professional experience, supporting teams and individuals in business as well as clinical work in addiction services and counselling charities. I bring a steady presence to working with my clients across issues that may include depression, anxiety, low self esteem, relationship difficulties, trauma, loss and grief.
I came to counselling later in my own life after recognising the power of having space to pause and reflect. If you would like to find out more about how I can support you, please contact me via email or call using the contact details provided. Rest assured you will be met with empathy and care as I know how hard taking these first steps can be.

My work is Psychodynamic which is a thoughtful process focussed on you and your story. We'll look at what brings you to counselling, providing a space for you to talk, reflect and be heard. My training supports a trauma informed approach which means that I hold gently the stories you bring into the counselling room and work with you in a safe environment without judgement.
