I'm a registered Psychotherapist based in Gloucestershire. I specialise in supporting adults and young people experiencing psychological and emotional challenges.
In our sessions together, I offer a gentle, conversational space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, hopes, and fears. Through sensitive questioning and warm curiosity, I aim to help you uncover some of the deeper, perhaps more hidden parts of yourself — supporting you to reconnect with who you are and how you’d like to move forward with your future.
The sessions provide a safe space where you can talk confidentially about your experiences. Retelling difficult life events while sharing your thoughts and beliefs can help reduce anxiety and build self esteem. I aim to make the sessions empowering, allowing you to understand yourself better and building a sense of mental wellbeing and calm.
My background includes palliative care counselling, supporting people living with life-limiting illnesses or coping with bereavement. I currently divide my time between private practice and counselling children & young people with challenges such as anxiety, depression, self-harm, eating diffculties, concerns around sexuality/gender, and neurodivergence.
