Clients often come to see me with difficulties such as depression, anxiety, bereavement and grief, trauma, relationship difficulties and parent- adolescent work.
You may already have an idea about counselling, but it is important to know that there is not one type of therapy that suits everyone. My main priority is to work with you to develop trust and ensure you have a safe space (free from judgement) to work. We can then use a range of different methods including art, talking, music, worksheets and mindfulness.

My ideal clients are people who appear to be coping on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, burnt out, disconnected or stuck internally. They may come to therapy because of stress, ADHD or neurodivergence, low confidence, grief, relationship strain, trauma, emotional regulation difficulties or repeating patterns they want to understand. I help by offering a calm, professional space to make sense of what is happening, identify what keeps them stuck, and build practical, realistic steps forward.

Therapist specialising in Anxiety and Trauma Therapy Intensives
Do you feel stuck in a cycle of anxiety, overthinking, overwhelm, or the impact of past experiences?
Perhaps you're constantly worrying, struggling to switch off, second-guessing yourself, or feeling emotionally exhausted. Maybe you've tried to work through things on your own, read the books, listened to the podcasts, or even had therapy before, but still find yourself returning to the same patterns.
If you're looking for meaningful change but don't want to commit to months or years of weekly therapy, a Therapy Intensive may be a good fit.

They may struggle with low desire, performance anxiety, or difficulty expressing their needs and boundaries.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.
How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.
How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.
How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
