I was one of the first children's psychological wellbeing practitioners qualified in the UK and provide support for children and young people struggling with mild to moderate common mental health issues, such as social anxiety, separation anxiety, OCD, panic attacks, phobias, generalised anxiety and low mood. With 3 years experience of working in CAMHS I am aware of the issues that many families face in getting early help for their children. I am passionate about early intervention and believe that getting the right help at the earliest opportunity can make a world of difference long into adulthood.

I am comfortable working both short term and long term and will tailor my approach to suit each clients unique needs and time-scale.

It is amazing how much being listened to helps. Sometimes it is enough to merely let go of the words that have built up inside you over the years. We are all built differently, and a significant amount of my clients have been a little daunted by the thought of talking about themselves for this long, at least at the beginning. I have a patient and relaxed style that my clients tell me help them take things at their own pace. I know that the only ‘right’ way of ‘doing therapy’ is the way that makes you feel safe. No two of my clients are the same therefore I have adopted a style that provides bespoke sessions to each individual.

Some days it can feel a bit too much. Do you exhaust yourself trying to cope with whatever life throws at you? Even when you feel worn out, close to boiling point or increasingly flat inside? You may feel a need to show yourself strong and capable even when you don’t feel like that. You might treat others a lot better than yourself. This is likely to place a huge toll on your mind and body; perhaps even on the very relationships you put so much into. You can learn to carry less of life's burdens by yourself and get more out of your precious time. What dreams have you given up on? What would you do if you could?

I think it is really important to understand and acknowledge the complexity of every individuals experience. I endeavour to do this by holding an open mind and creating a safe boundaried space in which we can both get to know you better. I encorporate a range of theories and skills in order to best facilitate your individual process and needs. Within my practice I work with a range of issues which are listed below. I also work in a sex and kink positive way, with all types of relationship styles. Neurodiversity and how that shapes how we experience the world is also a big part of my practise.

When we experience difficult life events we develop ways of coping and finding a way forward. Later in life, this can result in behaviours and emotions that are no longer serving us. This might present as difficulties such as depression, anxiety, eating difficulties or substance use, but you may simply feel 'stuck' or unsatisfied with life. It is likely that in our work together we will need to talk about your past experiences and important relationships, and explore patterns of behaviour and relating to others and yourself in the here and now, to consider what has brought you to this point and how to create meaningful change.

When you're going through a challenging time working with someone who has supported many others in similar situations is a great way to move forward. I can support you to take some time out of the same old experiences, to invest in yourself so you can be happier and enjoy what life has to offer. It's possible to work with me one to one or in your couple.

I am a qualified psychodynamic counsellor accredited with the BACP (British Council of counsellors and psychotherapists) and also trained in CBT Techniques. I have many years of experience in working with adults as individuals and couples. I know from my own experience that counselling provides a space to open up and get to know yourself a bit more closely and that way to live more fully and happily. If you are faced with a difficult situation or want to address something that you have been carrying for a long time, I can offer you a safe space to explore them.

My mission is to support healing, growth and transformation. My approach is practical, pragmatic and transpersonal, which includes emotional, and if you want it, higher self and spiritual aspects, to help you become more authentic and more content with your life. I work intuitively, sensitively and in a compassionate and friendly way, seeking to enable you to understand yourself and increase your awareness of your behaviours, thoughts, feelings and deeper aspects of your being.

I mainly work with LGBTQ+ adults who wish to meet a counsellor where those aspects of their identity will not be unnecessarily questioned or looked at, but can be spoken about respectfully and safely. I aim to offer you a sense of hope and empowerment, along with techniques you could use in your life to enhance or help you cope with your experience of existence. I can support you to explore whatever is going on in your life such as stress, grief (including for loss of pets), exploring gender identity, exploring sexuality, body image, anxiety or depression.
