I work with people who don't know 'what to do' and are experiencing anxiety, stress and may be overwhelmed by all the information surrounding mental health, wellbeing and neurodivergence and want to explore the foundations to better mental health. Additionally, I work with many long-term clients to provide deeper exploratory work, at a gentle and safe pace, led by you, with an emphasis from me on elements of compassion focused and acceptance work. I am passionate working with clients experiencing disabilities, who are neurodivergent, or unpaid and/or young carers. This passion comes directly from my lived and professional experience

I am a qualified Therapist with over 7 years of experience working within the substance misuse & mental health sector. The key to my work with clients is the belief that, through a psychotherapeutic relationship, we can gain insights into our patterns of behaviour. Working relationally, we can explore the possibility of change and begin to think of alternative positions that can move towards a more compassionate, and fulfilled version of ourselves. My main modalities of working with my clients is through addressing the unmet needs of our life experiences in early years, exploring the relational needs that may be left unattended too.

I have helped clients with mild mental health issues such as general stress to higher needs such as schizophrenia and personality disorders. I would say my expertise lies mostly with anxiety, depression and self-esteem issues. I work with the clients goals in mind, at their own pace and ability. No two clients are the same and adjust my skills accordingly. Whether you’re looking for small changes in perspective, understanding or attitude, or you want a deeper more meaningful change in thinking, behaviour and habits I am willing to walk that journey with you.

I am an integrative therapist specialising in using eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to treat a wide range of psychological issues. I am highly trained in psychotherapy, neuroscience and trauma and believe that our current issues can often be traced back to early adverse experiences in childhood. Compared to standard talking therapy EMDR generally takes a shorter amount of time to get to the root cause of the issue. Rather than just dealing with symptom management (like CBT), EMDR therapy works directly with the cause of your distress.

You are probably feeling very upset, alone and confused, maybe even ashamed and wondering if counselling could help? Everyone who comes to therapy has a unique set of issues but the underlying need to share the distress and be understood, is true for everyone. If you are struggling with parenting, postnatal depression, miscarriage or your identity during a life transition, you are not alone. I have lots of experience working with women (and men) who are struggling with life and want to feel better than they currently do. I also help younger people and teens who may have self esteem issues, feel sad, anxious or be self harming.

Are you struggling with anxiety, stress, anger or low mood? I am an experienced and passionate psychotherapist. I hold a robust space in which we target and process the source of distress. What I practice is not just ‘talk therapy’, I use powerful, evidence based protocols to help people into their calm, confident, playful and most integrated self. I can help you find structure and stability when things feel chaotic. Therapy can help when it feels like no one around you understands what it’s like to be you and when the way you feel makes no sense. If this resonates and you would like to start making changes please do get in touch.
