I work with people who feel stuck in patterns that don’t fully make sense, often in their self-worth, relationships, emotions, or the way they respond to life's challenges.
Together, we explore what’s happening beneath the surface. My work is informed by attachment theory, developmental trauma, Jungian psychology and body-based approaches. We gently tune into patterns, emotions and nervous system responses, helping you develop deeper understanding, self-compassion and lasting change.

If you're constantly holding everything together for everyone else, you may be exhausted, overwhelmed or unsure where you fit anymore. I support carers, overwhelmed women and neurodivergent adults who are struggling with burnout, anxiety, identity loss, late ADHD discovery, grief or life transitions. Therapy with me is warm, practical and collaborative — a space where you can finally exhale, feel understood and begin reconnecting with yourself without judgement or pressure.

Feeling disconnected from yourself? Life experiences, whether trauma or the challenges of being neurodiverse in a world that doesn’t always understand, can leave you feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or out of touch with who you really are. I provide a supportive space where you can begin to explore your story, deepen your self-understanding, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that may feel hidden or out of reach. My role isn’t to “fix” you. it’s to walk alongside you as you move toward greater clarity, self-acceptance, and growth at your own pace.

I offer a supportive, tailored approach to issues like anxiety, attachment, trauma, and self-esteem.
Most of the people I see are dealing with something they haven't been able to sort out on their own. It might be anxiety that won't quite settle, the weight of things that happened a long time ago still showing up in everyday life, a relationship that keeps running into the same painful wall, or a sense that what used to get you through isn't working anymore. What they have in common is a wish to understand themselves better and to feel more settled, in themselves and with the people around them. I offer a space that is warm and unhurried, but also thoughtful and considered, where you can bring whatever you need to.

The ideal environment is one that both supports & challenges us. Too often we go without both of these conditions. A Life Coach will tease out and help you create your vision of what you really want your life to be. If everything in your life stays status quo, you will head into a default future. We need another perspective if not we tend to go around repeating our default patterns and getting nowhere. As a Transformational Life Coach Linda will support you to become the successful and truly happy person you know you are meant to be.

I have recently been working with young women (18 -25) on issues such as low self-esteem and negative self image.
Hi, I am very much a Person-Centred / Humanistic Counsellor who allows the client to explore their issues and find their own way forward. I believe that sometimes we just need to stop and breath and allow ourselves the space to explore what’s next for us. I understand that counselling is not a 'one size fits all' process so I work on an integrated basis with the client to explore the therapies that will work for them. I have a special interest in bereavement as I have been working with clients who have lost loved ones during the Covid-19 pandemic. My own history of loss has helped me a great deal in this area.

Hello and welcome. I offer highly personalised, deeply integrative support for a small number of individuals and families navigating life after a neurodivergent identification (e.g. Autistic, ADHD). I’m the founder and leader of Thriving Autistic, a global nonprofit supporting neurodivergent adults in 19 countries. My work sits at the intersection of psychology, sensory awareness, relational clarity, and systems change. I work especially well with individuals whose lives are layered, high-stakes, or in significant transition — including senior leaders, professionals, and those seeking more than traditional therapy alone can offer.

Often, those who come to therapy are seeking a deeper understanding of themselves, greater emotional awareness, or support in navigating difficult or uncertain circumstances. My approach is integrative and relational, supporting exploration of thoughts, emotions, and patterns that may no longer feel helpful. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and reconnect with a more authentic sense of self. I look forward to working with you.
