In Person Counselling in Gorebridge
If you are feeling overwhelmed, exhausted from masking, or stuck in cycles of trauma and anxiety, I want you to know that you don't have to carry it all alone. As an experienced counsellor specialising in autism, ADHD and trauma, I understand how deeply draining it can be to navigate a world that doesn't always feel built for you. Perhaps you are dealing with burnout, the weight of childhood experiences, or a constant inner critic that tells you you aren't doing enough.

I work with people across the spectrum of eating difficulties — from diagnosed eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia, to those seeking help for disordered eating, binge eating, restricting or compulsive eating or exercise patterns. Many also come for support with negative body image and food anxiety, or to untangle long-standing difficult relationships with food, body, or self-worth.
I am neuro-affirmative and experienced in supporting autistic, ADHD, or neurodivergent clients, understanding how these differences can intersect with eating and body challenges.

I provide in-person / online psychotherapy for adults regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation or relationship style.
Sometimes life throws challenges in front of us which we may struggle to cope with. This could be a sudden and unexpected change like a loss or bereavement. It could be something that we have always struggled with that is making it challenging to move forward with life. Situations such as these can be stressful, and sometimes we can't shake off the anxiety and depression or we may even experience anhedonia (inability to feel pleasure in usually pleasurable activities). It might also be a past trauma or abuse that is causing the challenges in the present life, revealing itself as panic for example.

I offer therapy sessions in person at The Whole Works and online from my home.
Deciding to come to therapy can feel like a big step, sometimes fuelled by a discomfort in everyday living, a sense that things aren't quite right, anxiety that doesn't dissipate. There may be problems in relationships, issues of self-worth, trauma, feelings of loss and grief. In the midst of every day life many of these feelings can be difficult to properly grasp; they may arise 'out of the blue', feel unacceptable, they shift around; at times feeling more pressing than at others. In our sessions, my intention is to create a safe space, developing a relationship which is open and trustful and where all feelings are legitimate.

You may be wondering "Would I feel comfortable talking to this person?" And "Will she understand me without judging me?" If you’ve found yourself asking these questions, you’re not alone. Choosing the right counsellor can feel a bit daunting. People often come to therapy when things feel difficult to manage on their own anymore. They might be carrying a lot internally, struggling to make sense of how they feel, or simply needing a space where they can be heard without judgement. For some, it’s a specific life event; for others, it’s a more general sense that something isn't right.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.
When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.
How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
