If you’re caught in cycles of anxiety, relationship issues, or struggling after a breakup or divorce, you might feel exhausted by self-doubt, and the emotional ups and downs. You may long for clarity, calm, and a way to feel more secure in yourself and your relationships. If this describes you, I'm here to help. I'm also very much here to support the important changes and transitions of life - going to university, leaving home, finding a partner, living together, marriage, having a family, menopause, old age, and bereavement. Life shifts can be deeply unsettling, but we can work closely together to make them more manageable.
I offer a warm, supportive, non-judgemental therapy in which we can gently explore what’s happening for you, try to ease the emotional pressure, and start to understand your patterns. Together, we can work towards you feeling more settled and peaceful so you can begin to move though pain and anxiety towards greater calm and optimism.
If you're at a bit of a loss about who to talk to, I can help you navigate starting or resuming therapy. We can have an initial conversation to see whether you think I might be able to help. The most important thing is that you feel confident in your therapist, whether that's me or someone else. It's got to feel right for you.

Breakups and anxious attachment in relationships can feel all-consuming and tormenting. I offer warm, compassionate counselling to help release some of the pressure and pain of these situations, and will explore with you ways of thinking that can help free you from rumination. I also have a particular interest in women's life stages, from leaving home, to pregnancy, menopause, and aging.

Peggy is a warm, thoughtful, empathic therapist who provides an exceptionally safe and supportive space to talk and think. She has particularly extensive experience working with trauma but is equally skilled with a broad range of issues.

I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to recommend Peggy to anyone seeking therapy .There is something deeply human in the way Peggy listens ,thinks and connects-gently helping clients uncover patterns and meanings that often sit just beneath the surface.

I am a psychodynamic counsellor, which means that we will gently explore how the past shapes your present - your feelings, relationships and patterns. Our work will be thoughtful and compassionate, and at your pace. I offer a warm, empathetic moment, away from the pressures of daily life, in which we can focus on the things that really matter to you, and you can be truthful, without judgement.
