Are you feeling feeling stuck, overwhelmed, ready for something to change? Anxiety, low mood, depression, stress and burnout can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself and unsure how to move forward. You do not have to face this alone. I offer counselling and psychotherapy in a calm, supportive and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly, begin to make sense of what you are experiencing, and feel heard. Together, we can explore the emotional triggers, relationship patterns and behaviours that are keeping you feeling stuck.
My work is primarily informed by Transactional Analysis (TA), a clear and insightful approach that can help you understand why you respond in certain ways and how earlier experiences may still be shaping your present. With greater awareness, you can begin to develop new choices, build healthier relationships, strengthen your sense of self and control.
If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, low mood, stress, burnout or relationship difficulties, I can help you take the first step towards change at a pace that feels right for you.

I work with individuals or couples to explore difficulties and challenges that they maybe facing. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
