I am passionate about working with teens and adults. I provide a safe, warm, and non-judgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, and whether you're dealing with grief or loss, processing childhood trauma or navigating the complexities of ADHD, then I’m here to help you explore them. As an empathetic and compassionate listener, I help create a space where you can work through your struggles at your own pace. I understand that the process of healing and self-discovery can be difficult, but with support, it is possible to work through feelings of grief, confusion, and frustration.

Grief/Bereavement: Losing someone you love or the breakdown/loss of a relationship is one of the hardest experiences we can face. I can help you process the waves of grief and support you as you adapt and heal. Whether you're struggling with feelings of sadness, guilt, or anger, you are not alone in this process. Let me help you to adapt to this loss.

I’m that reaching out may be daunting. Please email and we can arrange a free 20 min chat to see if we connect. It is a privilege to be a part of your unique experiences and I am here to be with you with kindness and empathy, as you face your struggles and move towards acceptance.

Childhood Trauma: The impacts of childhood trauma can be profound, and often we carry these effects into adulthood without fully understanding them. Together, we can explore and address the wounds from your past, working toward healing and reclaiming your sense of self. My approach is gentle, sensitive, and respectful of your unique experience.

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT)

I am Person-Centred but I also use Solution- focused tools to help clients to reach their goals. I have found that young people especially like tools to support them and I sometimes bring in creativity such as painting, games, visualisation or breathing techniques, to help a client to unlock thoughts and feelings.
