I currently have a small number of spaces for new clients. Availability includes daytimes and some limited late afternoon early evenings subject to availability.

Whatever brought you here today welcome,

Whether you are looking to support yourself or for someone you care about, finding the right therapist is an important decision and I hope this gives you a sense of who I am and how I work.

Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, you may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, exhausted from carrying things on your own, or simply aware something does not feel quite right. Whatever has brought you here today you do not have to navigate it alone.

I offer a warm, compassionate non- judgemental space where you can be yourself. My approach is rooted in humanistic values and shaped by an integrative way of working., meaning I tailor therapy to the individual in front of me, rather than relying on a single handed approach. I believe no two people experience life in the same way, and therapy should reflect the uniqueness of this.

Working relationally, I pay close attention to not only what is being said, but also to the subtle details that can offer a deeper insight into your experience. Together we can explore emotions, patterns, relationships, and life experiences, helping you create a greater understanding of yourself and build confidence that extends beyond our sessions.

I work with children(10+), young people and adults, supporting a wide range of difficulties. I have a particular experience in loss and bereavement, baby loss and perinatal mental health, trauma and neurodiversity. As a neurodivergent therapist and a parent to neurodivergent children, I bring both professional knowledge and personal understanding to this area of my work.

Alongside talking therapy I also integrate somatic awareness and I am trained in EMDR , recognising that our experiences are often held not only in our minds but within our bodies too.

The therapy space is equipped with a variety of resources and creative mediums, enabling me to tailor sessions to the individual sitting in front of me. This may include working with collages, stones, sand, therapeutic books, visual resources, or creative activities. Equally, it may simply be a quiet, confidential space where you can pause, breathe, and be yourself. I believe therapy should meet you where you are, and together we can find the approach that feels most supportive for your needs.

Located in the heart of Uckfield, East Sussex, the practice offers disabled access, free parking, and public transport links within a short walking distance, helping to make therapy as accessible as possible.

If my profile resonates with you, I invite you to get in touch to arrange an initial free call. This gives us the opportunity to briefly discuss what has brought you to therapy, and it gives us a sense of how we may work together. Finding the right therapist is an important part of the therapeutic process and I believe it is important you feel comfortable and supported from the outset.

From here I invite you to our initial assessment

session charged at my standard fee of £70.

Together we can begin to consider the most appropriate approach to support you. Whether you are seeking short term support or longer term therapeutic work we will create a plan that feels tailored to your individual needs.
