I am a Counselling Psychologist, and we can work together and find ways to improve your wellbeing and alleviate your struggles.

Very often women accept ‘sex’ is something they used to do when I strongly believe we deserve to enjoy pleasure and to be pleasured. I help women want sex again! Do you have little interest in sex? Has pain on penetration caused a decline in your desire for sex? Is your pelvic floor not as strong as you like? Has the Menopause made your sex drive disappear? Do you question if you will ever feel aroused or reach an orgasm again? Has your body changed over the years, and you are lacking body confidence? Are you feeling overwhelmed, and sex is the last thing on your mind? Contact for a free 1.1 consultation.

I offer EMDR, CBT and Couples Counselling therapy and the aim is to help you to regain a sense of wellbeing and enjoyment in your life. During the initial assessment we will work together to understand your main problems, what is keeping you 'stuck' and then agree on an individualised treatment plan to help you move forward with clear treatment goals. CBT is an effective treatment that can help you in the here and now and EMDR is useful for getting to the root of the problem. I find that both work well, in different ways to bring about an improvement in emotional and physical health.

Hi. I am dedicated to helping people develop a better understanding of their true selves and consequently the way they approach relationships and life events. When life brings uncomfortable and sometimes unbearable emotions, it can be easier to run or hide from them. This may work in the short-term, but is often not a sustainable approach for a happy and healthy life. By working together, we can make sense of your thoughts and feelings, leading to better emotional and mental wellbeing. All ranges of emotions are welcome and can be explored in a safe, supportive, non-judgemental manner, helping you gain insight into your inner world.

People who are keen to re-orientate their lives in the direction of their values - towards what gives them a sense of meaning and purpose. Having a clearer idea of what really matters helps people motivate themselves - even to the extent of accepting the difficulties it may entail - to either change or persist - in behaviours that will move them in their valued directions. Typically, this approach can be powerfully effective in dealing with the pervasive problems of stress, anxiety and depression and other chronic issues where rigid patterns of avoidant behaviour have developed.

Do you need support because you’re not feeling ok? Are you feeling anxious, low in mood, stressed, sad, angry, fed up or tired? There are times in life when things are really hard and I help people who feel like you to talk about what’s going on in their lives, how they’re feeling and how this affects their day to day. Having someone to talk to about the things that are important to you can feel like releasing a pressure valve or that a weight has been lifted from your shoulders. More inner space allows you access to a greater range of feelings and the ability to think more clearly which can leave you feeling better in yourself.
