I work with people who have a variety of difficulties and varying degrees of distress, such as depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, addiction, and bereavement. I strive to offer a safe, supportive and understanding space for all my clients. I very much believe (and have seen in practice) that therapy is a helpful means for resolving current and/or past issues which may affect people and constrain their ability to lead a fully functional and satisfying life. I have a special interest in (i) psychotherapy for older adults, (ii) addiction and (iii) couples therapy.

I have trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy, dialectical CBT, attachment based (mentalisation) therapy, systemic family therapy, trauma-focussed therapy and emotional-focussed couples therapy. I work with young people, individual adults and with couples. My focus is on offering the most appropriate therapy to the client.

While I work with adults of all age, I specialise in working with young adults/emerging adults through their transitional journey into adulthood. Giving space where they can freely explore their inner world. Their issues may revolve around a sense of existential questioning, identity exploration, or navigating life ups and downs. I provide an empathetic presence, foster self-discovery, and delve into the underlying emotional roots of their struggles. Together, we unravel the layers of their being, ignite their inner wisdom, and facilitate a transformative process that leads to authenticity, growth, and a life lived with intention.

Every individual meets different challenges in life. How each of us meets these is unique and with support, together we can find a way though to find a solution which best fits your situation. You are the expert, I understand that with a gentle & sincere approach, confidence will return to enable you to face situations.

Couples counselling is my specialist area. This ranges from marriage counselling, to same sex relationship therapy.

Most clients come to therapy because something or someone in their lives is causing them distress. It might be relationships, work related, life changes or grief.

You won’t know what works for you until you try working it through. Make a call. Resource yourself. Help yourself through a difficult patch.

Counselling and Psychotherapy can be the difference that makes all the difference. If you are worried about the future and if there are unresolved issues playing on your mind, please give me a call.

Taking the first step in deciding to attend therapy is often the hardest part, it can be difficult to admit to ourselves that we may need the intervention of another to assist us on this journey. Coming to speak allows an individual to be heard in way that is specific to them, a singular , and not to fit the specifics of ticking the boxes. Speaking about your way of experiencing life and it's difficulties and challenges, can free up a person and allow them to look through a different lens.

I am well aware that life can be a struggle when trying to deal with anxiety, depression, profound sadness, grief, relationship issues, emotional upheavals, stress, long standing hurt or deeply embedded trauma. Sometimes it’s about self exploration. I offer a warm, safe, welcoming and non judgmental space where clients can come and examine how they see themselves in their world; explore unhelpful behavioral patterns and look at how they are in relationship to others and themselves. At all times in the Counselling space, I work from my heart; from a place of compassion and love, with genuine acceptance of the client just as they are
