About me and my therapy practice

You're capable, self aware, everyone relies on you so you have to keep going but the pressure, anxiety, overthinking & constant demands is starting to feel heavy. You don't feel in crisis but you know something needs to change. You have supportive people around you but you can't talk to them honestly as they rely on you too. You carry everyone's worries as well as your own. You're exhausted but there's no room for respite.

If this sounds familiar then I can help. I have been a qualified personal and group therapist for over 8 years . Supporting capable, self aware adults who keep going. They may not feel in crisis but they do feel the burden of being the one everyone depends on at work and at home. 

I help people who feel overloaded find peace, feel lighter, brighter and a lot clearer. 

Witnessing clients begin to understand themselves and learn new skills to navigate life in a more fulfilling way is a privilege and the reason I do my job.

I work flexibly and adjust session plans to suit my clients needs and desired outcomes. 

In my free time I love to travel with my two incredible daughters, I train regularly and enjoy the Hyrox hype, I love being outdoors with my three dogs, I'm passionate about self empowerment and enjoy long walks with friends.


Practice description

Finding the right therapist for you is the one of the most important  parts of the process. Feeling comfortable with that person is crucial. The best way to discover if we are a good fit for each other is to meet, either by telephone, video call or in person. That's why I offer the free introductory call. This gives us the opportunity We can talk though your hopes and expectations, I'll explain the way I work and you'll get a feel for how the sessions will be. Feel free to contact me to book in for a free introductory call. No pressure at all, maybe speak to a few therapists, you'll know when it feels right, trust that feeling.

I offer you time and space to untangle your mind and reconnect with yourself in a relaxed rural setting.

I work flexibly and adjust session plans to suit my clients needs and desired outcomes. 

Your sessions are time for you to be honest and open, explore the thoughts and emotions that you're experiencing and take steps towards change. Try not to feel nervous of this, change doesn't have to be dramatic, it doesn't mean a complete overhaul of your life, it's just looking at new ways of managing the demands you face so you can move forward in a positive way.
