My goal working with clients is always to provide a judgement free space, where you can come into contact with parts of yourself that seldom get seen or acknowledged. Enabling awareness of yourself in relation to the events of your life, and how new emergent choices can empower you moving forward. I can work with a range of presenting issues, from mental health issues (such as anxiety and depression) to neurodiversity. Equally I have experience of working with clients who come from a wide range of backgrounds, specifically those from the LGBTQ+ community.

My practice is guided by 25 years of supporting people in difficult and often stressful situations, gained by working operationally in the NHS, Armed Forces, Emergency Services and the RNLI, as well as teaching in schools and a university. This experience informs my therapy, enabling me to provide a safe, non-judgemental, trauma-informed environment to work through the concern, challenge or problem being faced. I specialise in CBT, Relationship (Couples) Counselling and ADHD Support, all delivered with a warm, calm and compassionate focus. I can provide counselling face-to-face, online or whilst walking outdoors.

Do you feel like: your mind is constantly racing with anxious thoughts, do you replay conversations, and feel like you just can't relax? Or perhaps you feel exhausted, disconnected and like you're just trying to keep it all together. If this sounds familiar you're not alone. Many people come to sessions feeling this way. Sessions with me are rooted in compassion, curiosity and are a collaboration. I will work with you towards the change you'd like to see. The combination of talking therapy and art therapy, for which no experience of art-making is necessary, can support you in creating lasting change.

Hi I'm Bryn, and I'm based in Newport. You may be an adult or teenager who is feeling overwhelmed by grief, loss, or complicated emotions linked to adoption or fostering. You might be finding it hard to put how you feel into words, or feeling stuck and unsure where to turn. You’re looking for a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself, feel understood, and take things at your own pace. You want help to gently explore what’s going on for you and find ways to cope, heal, and move forward with greater calm and self-compassion.

Sometimes life just feels like too much. You might be carrying anxiety, old wounds, or a sense of being stuck unsure who you are anymore, or where to even begin. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself, you’re not alone. And you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. I work with adults who are navigating anxiety and past traumas, often feeling like they’ve lost touch with who they are. Together, we gently untangle the pressure, the self-doubt, and the weight of what you’ve been carrying so you can start feeling more like you again.

Hi, I'm Jade. I work with people who find themselves at a point where life no longer feels familiar — often following a significant change, loss, or life transition. You may feel disconnected from who you are, unsure how you arrived here, or struggling to make sense of what you’re experiencing. You don’t need to have clear answers before starting therapy; sometimes simply knowing that something feels out of balance is enough. My approach is person-centred and holistic, meaning I place your experience at the centre of our work and move at a pace that feels right for you.

I have experience working with parents of children with learning disabilities, adults with learning disabilities, and neurodiverse clients, identifying strategies to support mental wellbeing and gain a deeper understanding of self.
As a counsellor I work to increase mental wellness and decrease distress for my clients. Have you suffered trauma, grief or loss, adverse childhood experiences, or abuse. Do work/life challenges affect your day to day functioning, or cause symptoms of depression and anxiety, social withdrawal, or loneliness and isolation? Society can cause immense pressure - use of social media, comparing our lives to others, low self-esteem and confidence, negative self talk and intrusive thoughts can become overwhelming. Counselling can support you, help you heal, and provide tools to lead to a more positive outlook on life.

We encounter various kinds of difficulties and challenges every day. At times, it can be challenging to open up to others, therefore leading to feelings of confusion and a sense of powerlessness. Recently, many individuals from Hong Kong who have relocated to the UK have faced setbacks in their social, professional, or academic pursuits. Such challenges often stem from uncertainties surrounding self-image and self-worth while adapting to a new environment. If you find yourself in a similar situation, exploring yourself through psychological counseling can provide you with more effective means to understand and address these emotions
