Counselling in York

Are things getting on top of you, so that your day to day living is a struggle, and your relationships with others are strained? Do you feel like past, or current, events are effecting how you cope with life today? I help people feel more confidence in their relationships by identifying the hurdles that are holding them back. I help people to find peace of mind by managing their anxiety or low mood. I support people through their bereavement to enable them to enjoy life again. Let me help you to make sense of your difficulties, so that you can connect more positively with your loved ones and the world.

Hello, and welcome to my page in this directory. I am a highly qualified and experienced clinical psychologist located near the centre of York. Prior to working full time in private practice I worked as a clinical psychologist in NHS mental health services for 14years.

I work with you to help you gain a better understanding of yourself, difficulties, and strategies to improve how you feel. I offer a warm and confidential space where you can talk openly about your feelings without fear of criticism.

I am a British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) registered counsellor offering counselling support within York city centre to young people (16+) and adults. Perhaps you feel overwhelmed, anxious or confused by recent or past life events.  You may feel stuck; finding yourself making the same unhelpful life choices or struggle with relationships, repeating negative patterns.  You may need the space to find some self healing and acceptance.  It is not my place to tell you what you need to do, rather we will work together to help you find clarity, move forward and regain control. We may work short or long term.

My goal is to help you regain control of your life and achieve a sense of peace and fulfilment. You deserve to live a happier, healthier life, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.
