My speciality is animal assisted therapy and neurodiversity, I am also autistic. I am an authentic person, I work in a creative way to offer therapy that meets your needs when words alone are not enough. I have worked across many settings including Education, alternative education, CAMHS, the third sector and the NHS. I work with complex trauma, abuse and addiction. I also offer pre-trial therapy and support to ex-offenders also known as forensic counselling, I support people on probation and at risk of committing further offences.
I can help you understanding the difficulties of masking/mirroring. Overwhelming feelings and thoughts, intense feelings of rejection (rejection sensitive dysphoria) and all the other difficulties which come with neurodiversity.
You are welcome to work with me online as I am now accepting a small number of new clients. Any questions please email me.

I work in a creative, animal-assisted way to offer therapy that meets your needs when words alone are not enough. I work with complex trauma, abuse and addiction.

I use creative and animal-assisted methods in counselling — because talking can be hard sometimes and I get that. We will build our relationship at your pace, so you feel safe enough to explore what's going on and what you need. Alongside 1:1 AAT, I can also bring animal-assisted support into schools, alternative provision and secure settings.
