Are you feeling an increased level of anxiety or depression? Experienced a recent bereavement or loss? Maybe you'd like to explore recurring relationship patterns? Or have an early experience or trauma that is affecting you as an adult?

Whatever stage of your life you're currently negotiating, I offer an authentic space where we can talk and explore what it is to be you. Our work will be safe, confidential and accepting of whatever is troubling you.

My work is fundamentally trauma-focused and compassionate: following the theory that all parts of us emerge to help us survive and cope with traumas and relationships that we experience through our life. As we grow, we often notice that the parts that used to serve us so well, now get in the way of living a wholehearted life. A large part of therapy is noticing what you want to hold onto and deciding what to let go.

As well as being a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor of adults, I am currently training as a Play Therapist to work with children. When working face-to-face, I offer sandtray therapy and other creative options to work at an unconscious level.

​I am calm, accepting and caring and you can expect to find the most authentic version of me in the counselling room.

Although I work with a wide variety of clients with different presenting issues, I have additional training to work with trauma, infertility, victims of narcissistic abuse and the adult children of addicts.  

Finding a counsellor you can build a trusting relationship with is vital for therapy to be effective, and so I offer an initial 50 minute session for £30 to find out more about how we could work together and whether working with me might be right for you.  Get in touch for more details.
