One of my favourite things about my job is the diversity of the people I support. I always learn from my clients and meeting people from such a range of backgrounds brings me great joy. I have had the privilege of supporting and witnessing their recovery from debilitating conditions and traumas. I know that in even just reaching out to me for help, you have had to cross so many emotional and practical barriers and that shows huge motivation to change. My ideal client therefore is anyone who has been brave enough to take the step to reach out. Recovery is possible and I'm here to help.

It’s normal, at some point, to get stuck, or to struggle facing life's challenges. Sometimes we know exactly what’s wrong but at other times we might just have a nagging sense that something isn’t quite right. Therapy can help by supporting you to explore the roots of your distress, understand more clearly what’s keeping you stuck, and create new ways to think about yourself and your relationship roles and patterns. By uncovering the obstacles holding you back, you can learn to problem-solve, make better choices, practise healthier coping strategies, and turn your goals into realities to find a greater sense of peace and fulfilment.

It is my hope that I have created a serene, warm and welcoming space for us to work together with whatever issues you are experiencing.

At the heart of all my work, lies compassion and integrity. These values guide my approach throughout; from the point I receive an enquiry, to meeting any client or team for the first time, in the relationships formed and collaborative work, to the care taken in the endings of work. The 14 years since qualifying, have shaped my strengths and passion in building strong therapeutic relationships, be that with children, young people, families or teams, is central to psychological change.

If you are here you are taking your first step towards feeling better. That is courageous and daunting. You may have been feeling anxious or depressed for some time and you are not sure why. Or specific issues in your life are causing worry and stress. You may be navigating life transitions or facing day-to-day challenges. Either way, you feel overwhelmed by your emotions or shut down and disconnected. Or perhaps you have frequently felt 'different' and struggled with things others seem to find easy. You suspect you may be neurodivergent.

Life feels hectic and busy most of the time. I'm sure at some point in the past we have all wished for a quiet moment to reboot our busy lives. So why is it so hard to make that happen? There are so many pressures we put on ourselves and the way we go about life..... if you need a neutral,supporting person to talk these feelings through with, or even some support in seeing things in a different way... I'm here! Friendly, enthusiastic and very supportive. No ones circumstances are the same and no one answer is right. We could find a new way of coping together to help you find the way to adjust to life today and going forward.

Are you struggling with substance or alcohol use, trauma and/or despair? Utilising my neuroscience and addictions academic and professional background, I will support you to not just survive but regain control of your life one day at a time. My approach aims to go beyond only listening to the issues you may have by using analysis and solutions to give the support you need. While this approach is based on you gaining more knowledge about yourself, I also highly value patients being as comfortable as possible in the sessions as well.
