You have taken the first steps to making the changes you want to make in your life. Most people at some point in there life find themself in need of counselling. Depression, anxiety, grief, overthinking, stuck in unhelpful patterns or relationship difficulties are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions we face.
Whatever the difficulties you are facing it can be helpful to have someone outside of your daily life to talk to. I believe passionately that people have the ability to grow and change, no matter how difficult their situation may seem. However, you don’t have to be on the verge of crisis to have therapy. Therapy can help people find new ways to be with their emotions and as a result break free of unhelpful patterns and realise their individual potential.

I have experience of working with people facing many challenges these include;
I also run workshops on various issues such as climate/eco anxiety, dyslexia, self-esteem, and the menopause.
Prior to becoming a therapist, I was a nurse for over 25 years in the NHS, charity sector and Universities. This has given me a wealth of experience of helping people with complex physical and mental health needs.
I love learning, but being dyslexic has made it challenging, and I understand well the impact being neurodivergent can have on someone's well-being.
Over recent years I have learnt the importance of mind/body connection and the impact this disconnect on our mental and physical health. I take time to connect with natural world around me to help connect my mind and body.
Being in nature has always been important to me and living a life that has minimal impact on the climate crisis .
Whatever you bring to the sessions, whether its something you’ve never said out loud before or something you’ve been carrying for years -you’ll be met with warmth and without judgment. I work with individuals on an open-ended basis or for an agreed time. This can be online or in person.
As an integrative therapist, I blend different approaches, drawing on person-centred methods, Transactional Analysis (TA), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and embodied psychodynamic principles.
The therapy can focus on the here and now or on how our past experiences are affecting your day to day life. We might bring attention to our bodies and become aware of the emotions and feelings we hold; to help bring more balance to your emotional life
Through a relationship between us which is supportive but challenging we can explore how we relate to others and find more creative ways to live our lives. We’ll work at a pace that feel right for you.
