How you may be feeling and my general approach

Struggling with anxiety or relationship challenges? These issues can stem from past experiences, whether recent or even from childhood.

These struggles can leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. Anxiety can lower your self-confidence, self -esteem . It may affect relationships at work and at home. Socially, explaining what you’re going through might feel exhausting, leading you to avoid interactions.

Therapy can help. It guided me through life’s events. Although our experiences may differ, I understand what it is like to struggle, feel conflicted. I offer tailored support through my training, NHS background, and coaching experience to help you:

  • Understand how past experiences shape your present.
  • Break unhelpful patterns in relationships, work, and personal habits.
  • Manage emotions and anxiety to feel more in control.
  • Build self-esteem and healthier relationships.
  • Use strategies that suit your lifestyle to move forward

In more detail , some of the challenges I can help with:

  • Sleep & Overthinking: Struggling to switch off? Waking up exhausted? I’ll guide you regain balance and energy.
  • Relationship conflicts: arguments, trust issues, or feel unseen? I’ll help you to communicate better, manage emotions , build bonds.
  • Life Changes :Breakup, illness, bereavement, redundancy? I’ll help you find clarity and momentum to move forward, accept change.
  • Past Experiences & Triggers: Childhood challenges or emotional neglect? I’ll guide you to understand and break old cycles.
  • Insecurity in Relationships: Feeling ‘not enough’? I’ll help you build confidence and stronger connections.


Practice description

What to expect from me:

Therapy with me is about being heard, seen and also about real change. Some sessions might bring laughter, some might be emotional, and others might gently challenge you in meaningful ways. I create a safe, supportive space to help you reflect and grow.

I use a blend of therapeutic approaches, including coaching and solution-focused techniques, to help you . My work with organisations like The Listening Place (supporting those feeling suicidal) also informs my approach. Ultimately I am led by you and we will go at your pace during this journey together. 

My first session

When we meet, it is about you and your needs. I will offer an honest, gentle and direct approach whilst we create a confidential therapeutic environment together where you will feel free to be utterly yourself.

My style is adaptive, combining active listening, exploration, unconditional positive regard , empathy with appropriate gentle challenges when you are ready.

In our first session we will assess your needs, understand your background and explore how we can work together.

We will have a working agreement. This will depend on your circumstances and what you need from me. It will include how we interact, the length of sessions, where, when we meet, how we deal with emergencies amongst many other matters, some specific to you.
