About me and my therapy practice

Welcome, the decision to seek therapy is not taken lightly and I appreciate the journey you have had to arrive at this point. To seek support and help is a sign of strength and with the right conditions in place can be a life changing act of self love and compassion. 

I work in a person centred modality using trauma informed, compassionate inquiry. 

You are at the centre of the work. 

Together, through talk, silence or play we unravel your obstacles and concerns and progress towards you finding strategies to best develop your resilience and self awareness and to help you feel more light and hope in your future.


Practice description

Therapy can be hard work and can also be extremely rewarding. Preparing to take that leap into the unknown can be unsettling and it is paramount to feel like you are in safe hands.

I have extensive experience working with adults, young people and children and enjoy working with all ages. Change can occur at any stage of life and to be able to witness and observe someone making better choices is always humbling. 

As a neurodivergent practitioner I have a wide range of tools in working with neurodivergent clients and appreciate how sometimes a lack of diagnosis and awareness can cause mental health issues arising from a lack of proper support and understanding of a person processing needs. 

I create a therapeutic space that is free of judgement and is a space for all regardless of background. I appreciate we all have our own unique back stories and this informs our sense of who we are and how we operate in our worlds.  I use my differences to recognise your uniqueness.

My first session

The first step is a telephone conversation, email or text exchange to determine if we can work together. If we are a good match then we will book a session. 

In the event that I am unable to work with you , I will refer you to another agency or organisation that may meet your needs better.

About me and my therapy practice

Working with the energy you bring, together, we create a therapeutic space for you to lead sessions at your own pace. Trauma informed, compassionate inquiry helps create a therapeutic partnership: providing stillness and clarity, supporting you to untangle difficult and often complex thoughts and feelings. You are held in a safe space, offering warmth and kindness whilst you arrive at your solutions and feelings of hope and renewal.

Practice description

I work in a Trauma informed way and use compassionate inquiry to consider the whole person. We try to unravel what has happened, in order to help you move forward leaving behind trauma, guilt, shame and other unwanted emotions. Counselling can be an extremely daunting and anxiety inducing process, especially when you are a private person who avoids talking about themselves. 

Talking to a stranger about interior thoughts can feel uncomfortable; therefore it is paramount to find a Counsellor who will put you at ease and 'gets you'

I work in person, online, and on the telephone, creating a therapeutic space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. I derive much pleasure from helping people work through obstacles and blockages in their world. I have a varied life history and will use a range of therapeutic approaches in your quest for meaning and self improvement. Primarily working with the Person centred modality, I may use other approaches like CBT, creative activities like painting or poetry in bibliotherapy to tailor the therapy to your individual needs, passions and interests.

My first session

We initially conduct a free 20 minute telephone assessment to determine what is needed and whether counselling is appropriate for you. This sets out what you think you need and expectations from the therapy. We discuss any prior experiences of counselling and preferred ways of working to meet your agenda and to set achievable goals. All counselling sessions are a balanced, equal space where we meet as equals, with no hierarchies, and I aim to dispel any myths about the counselling process so you are comfortable to speak freely and get the most out of our time together.
