There may be occasions in our lives when we struggle to make sense of what is happening to us and the world we experience. I provide an opportunity to explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences within a relationship that is free of the fears we may hold about disclosing to people we know. I offer a relationship of trust, honesty and openness that allows you to explore your story, thoughts, hopes and fears, in a safe, supportive, confidential place, free of external influences and judgement, providing an opportunity for personal insight and change.

I have a specialist interest in working with people who have suffered or are suffering abuse. Abuse can happen to anyone, any gender any age any type such as physical, emotional, sexual and even financial. I will create a safe environment where it is warm and non judgemental. I will be open and genuine so we are able to work towards growth, change and your full potential. We can do this by talking, or creatively by art or a sand tray, which can bridge what is going on in the unconscious to the conscious to then become aware of what may be holding us back.

People, have the basic desire to be listened to, understood, and helped when needed. This is not always common in our world. However, this is exactly what I offer in a calm, genuine way. I help with addictions and neurodiversity in it's may forms. Addiction and neurodiversity can be linked due to self-medicating. Using one to help with the other is common. Trauma can play a big part in addictions and can be masked by our using. There are difficulties that underlie each and every one of us. Some are very obvious and some we hide hoping no one will notice. This can be very tiring and eventually become a huge burden that we carry.

I understand that making the decision to engage in therapy can be a daunting one. I aim to provide a space where you feel safe, heard and valued. I place great emphasis on working collaboratively to understand a person's life experiences and how they have and continue to impact them. Our work together would be defined by your values and goals. The models of therapy that I draw on help to make sense of how patterns of being with yourself and others have developed, understanding these and then empathically challenging them to enable people to make meaningful sustained change in their lives.

We sometimes find it difficult to cope with the things that life throws at us, be it relationship issues, health problems, self esteem and self doubt, anxiety, depression, panic attacks or phobias. Sometimes we just need a safe space where we can explore and talk about the things that worry us with someone who can help us find our own way through the struggle in an empathic and totally non-judgmental way. I am a fully integrative psychotherapist offering counselling and hypnotherapy in a calm, mindful and supportive environment.

You may seem capable on the outside yet on the inside feel anxious, depressed, self-critical or constantly on edge. Your experiences of childhood and relational trauma through emotional, domestic, sexual abuse and neglect may have left feelings of guilt, shame, over-responsibility and difficulty in trusting yourself or others. You might notice tension in your body, racing thoughts or a sense of being "on alert" or disconnected even when safe. You long for understanding, peace from self-criticism and negativity. You want to set healthy boundaries and experience greater ease in your life and relationships.

Welcome. I work with individuals who are feeling overwhelmed at times and are finding it difficult to balance the challenges of everyday life. Does that sound like you?
Feelings of anxiety or low self esteem can make you feel at times helpless and misunderstood. You may have suffered a recent loss or trauma from which you feel 'stuck', you may be struggling to understand past or current experiences or relationships. There are many reasons why we need to reach out for help during times of confusion and pain and you do not have to face them alone.

I work with adults who grew up feeling emotionally unsupported, unseen, or having to cope alone, and who now find themselves struggling with anxiety, self-criticism, relationship difficulties, or a fragile sense of self.

You may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of the way forward. Life’s pressures—work, family, and relationships—can leave you struggling with self-doubt, low confidence, or a sense of failure. You may sense something isn’t quite right but are unsure why you feel or think the way you do.
