I have experience supporting both men and women who have experienced sexual and domestic violence. I also bring lived experience and an understanding of alternative lifestyles, including home education, nomadic and military families. This can make it easier to bring your challenges into counselling without fear of judgement. I work with neurodivergent teenagers in EOTAS. My clients are from a range of cultures, and many people tell me how valuable it is to have a space where they don’t feel they need to explain their cultural context. My aim is to offer a place where you can feel understood, respected and able to speak freely.
I believe that healing happens not only through words, but through reconnecting with the body, the natural world and our innate capacity for growth. My approach is somatic, relational, trauma-informed and grounded in both traditional therapeutic practice and embodied, experiential work. I am also trained in embodied processing and outdoor therapy.
Reaching out for support can feel like a big step. You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected or simply aware that something isn’t quite right, but unsure where to begin. Whatever brings you here, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer a calm, supportive space where you can slow down and begin to explore what’s going on for you.

I work largely with trauma, CPTSD and anxiety but also with changing patterns and behaviours so that you don't make the same choices again and again. Change is a process of understanding past behaviours in order to understand current choices. That's where we start, then build on your confidence and ability to make the right choices going forward.

I am an integrative therapist with a trauma-informed somatic approach and an interest in how childhood experiences and early attachment affect our adult lives. I use nature where appropriate (as a wilderness therapist) and am currently undertaking training in embodied processing for additional trauma support.
