Counselling in Glasgow
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.

Parenthood can be really hard, and navigating its challenges and accompanying emotions can be a struggle at times. At The Hazel Tree Practice I use a collaborative Compassion Focused Therapy approach to help parents find more calm and joy, and to let go of any shame they may be carrying if they are not 'enjoying every moment'.
I am a Clinical Psychologist with specialist training in child and family psychology. I am dedicated to supporting parents' and caregivers' psychological wellbeing, because I know from both research and experience that when parents and caregivers are happier and calmer, the whole family is too.

Thank you for visiting my profile. You may be looking for help with a specific issue, looking for more purpose or clarity in life, more understanding about yourself or maybe you might be confused. Sometimes choosing a therapist can feel overwhelming and despite the qualifications and experience it can be more about finding the right fit between yourself and your therapist.

You may have always felt a little different or out of step, without quite knowing why. Perhaps you’re starting to recognise yourself in conversations about autism, ADHD, or neurodivergence, or you’re simply curious about understanding yourself more fully. You might feel tired, overwhelmed, or unsure about relationships, work, or past experiences.
In therapy with me, you’ll find a gentle, calm, and understanding space where you can slow down, feel heard, reflect safely, and explore things at your own pace — without pressure, judgment, or needing to have all the answers. I also provide clinical supervision for other therapists.

You may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or out of sync with yourself or your life. You might notice anxiety, emotional shutdown, self-criticism, or repeating patterns that don’t fully make sense yet. You’re not looking for quick fixes, but for understanding, safety, and space to reflect. You want to make sense of what you’re carrying, develop greater awareness, and respond with more choice rather than pressure or survival strategies. You value honesty, depth, and a pace that respects your nervous system and lived experience.

Originally from Manchester, I now live in Glasgow. I started my counselling training in London on Goldsmith University’s Graduate Certificate in Humanistic & Psychodynamic Counselling, before completing the University of Strathclyde’s MSc, Counselling & Psychotherapy. At Strathclyde I trained in Person-Centred Therapy and this forms the basis of my practice. I have experience working with a wide variety of people, I’m particularly familiar with autism and neurodiversity, and I work with all kinds of issues including depression and anxiety, as well as those vague feelings of just not being what you ought to be.

Our journey through life can be rough at times, and when that happens it’s healthy to get a little support. It can be overwhelming to do everything alone, so taking a moment to express ourselves to a professional and empathetic CBT therapist can make a great difference in our lives. My effectiveness as a therapist stems from empathetic listening, genuine compassion, and a non-judgemental attitude. The ability to establish a trusting therapeutic alliance creates a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts and emotions.

Walking alongside you through life's challenges, at your pace. Helping you find clarity, strength and hope, one step at a time. I offer both couples counselling and individual counselling and as an integrative therapist I draw on different therapeutic approaches and tailor them to you, because no two people's needs, past experiences or hopes are the same.

Finding a therapist who you feel really "gets you" is not always easy and can take time. From personal experience I know how invaluable therapy can be when you share your vulnerabilities and receive compassion without judgement in return. Whatever is bringing you to counselling at this time in your life, I would offer you an open and honest space to share your feelings without fear of rejection. I would be privileged to help in your search for the answers that you are looking for to move forward from where you are now, and in doing so help you feel more at peace within yourself.
