Many people come to counselling feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or affected by trauma, difficult life experiences, or challenges in current relationships. As a qualified and registered BACP counsellor, I offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. Together, we can make sense of patterns that may be keeping you stuck, helping you feel more understood, grounded, and able to move forward with greater confidence and self-awareness.
I am an Integrative therapist specialising in trauma and abuse, with in-depth experience supporting clients affected by physical, emotional, and sexual abuse in childhood or adulthood. I also help with anxiety, depression, stress, loss, relationship difficulties, and the emotional challenges that impact everyday life, work, and home.
I will offer you a safe place for us to open the boxes together that you may have built for yourself as it’s so often the case to store painful or difficult memories and feelings away – that’s my mission at Open Box Counselling, to provide a safe and nurturing environment for you to explore how this is impacting you in the present.

When working with clients who have experienced trauma such as physical, emotional & sexual abuse either in childhood or as an adult, it is my priority to ensure that you first feel safe & comfortable both physically and emotionally. Once we have achieved this we would work towards providing coping strategies and tools to help keep you regulated & moving forward at your own pace.
