Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, or feeling overwhelmed by life? You don’t have to navigate it alone. Therapy offers a safe, supportive space where you can talk openly and begin to make sense of what you’re experiencing. I work collaboratively with you and your goals, helping you gain clarity, develop coping tools, and move forward at a pace that feels right for you. Even when things feel heavy, change is possible — and together we can begin to let some light back in.
I am a fully qualified Gestalt and CBT counsellor offering a calm, safe, and confidential space where you can speak openly without fear of judgement. I have experience supporting clients with a wide range of difficulties, with particular expertise in bereavement, loss, and trauma.
If you would like to discuss online or in-person sessions, please get in touch. I offer a free 20 minute phone conversation to give you the opportunity to decide if you would like to book a full session with me.

In your first session, we will explore what has brought you to therapy and agree the goals you hope to achieve and a time frame. I use Cognitive Behavioural Techniques (CBT) to look at how your thoughts influence your feelings and behaviour. I usually set some assignments to practice techniques learned during the week. I also may use gestalt therapy to look at your issues in more creative ways.
