If you have reached a point in your life where you feel stuck, whether that's in your relationships, repeating anxious cycles, overwhelmed by stress, struggling to manage anger, or navigating the complexities of living with ADHD then we might be a good fit. Privately, we often battle with emotional patterns that feel out of our control, leading to repeated behaviours to cope. We used compassion led CBT to help you break cycles of feeling low or anxious. Our team is made up of 3 clinicians to provide a broad range of specialisms for you to chose your therapist.

Coming to therapy can seem like a big step. But in my experience with clients, it is usually the beginning of a liberating time when past and present concerns can be expressed and understood with emotions examined and transmuted. Learning how to accept and navigate difficult life situations can be really beneficial, as you discover what choices are available to you in how to handle difficult emotions and thought patterns. Many of our core beliefs were formed when we were young and not fully conscious of the choices we were making about our world. Therapy gives you the chance to look at yourself and your issues in new ways.

Do you have PTSD, or are you struggling with the effects of trauma? Do you suffer from anxiety or depression? EMDR is an effective, evidence-based therapy. You don't need to struggle alone. Coming to therapy is a big step, and EMDR can be intense, but it is worth it. I have had many hours of EMDR therapy, and I can honestly say that it changed my life. I worked with addiction for 20 years, and I have some knowledge of the 12 steps. I specialise in working with codependency. I offer EMDR weekly on Fridays and Saturdays in Sketty, Swansea. I offer online EMDR sessions on weekday mornings. Email to book a free call.

Emotional well being is something we can often take for granted, and more often than not we do not take time to attend to our emotional well being until we begin to struggle to maintain a balance. You may just need some space to reflect safely and without judgement. Perhaps you are overwhelmed by the pressures of life, stuck in a rut, repeating negative patterns, or trying to find a way out of anxiety or depression. Maybe you just don’t feel able to share your worries and concerns with those around you and you just don’t feel like ‘you’ so would like to explore why you might have feelings of worthlessness and hopelessness.

At times we all find it hard to cope and need a little help to get back on track. I believe that therapy can help anyone to transform their life. I believe in the human potential for change and improvement and the importance of personal growth. Perhaps you're feeling trapped or blocked by the past, confused knowing there must be more to life but feeling stuck in survival. Maybe you feel in the depths of despair with feelings of stress, depression and anxiety or recently grieving from a bereavement or loss. You know changes need to be made and seeking a safe supportive space to find a greater balance and meaning to life.

I work from the understanding that human experience includes distress, conflict, and harm, and that avoiding these realities is neither helpful nor therapeutic. In the therapy room, I offer a non-judgemental, reflective space where clients can explore their experiences honestly and at their own pace. My role is not to impose interpretations or provide simplistic reassurance, but to listen carefully, ask meaningful questions, and support clients in developing insight, emotional awareness, and psychological resilience.I see therapy as a collaborative process grounded in respect, autonomy, and ethical practice.
