Accredited Integrative Counselling Psychotherapist and former NHS Senior ward Sister.Warm,practical support to help you manage anxiety,break worry cycles and navigate life's challenges.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety,trapped in a cycle of overthinking,or struggling to maintain boundaries in your relationships?

I am an Accredited Integrative Counselling Psychotherapist with over a decade of experience helping adults (18+) navigate life's challenges.Before training as a therapist in 2013,I spent many years as a Senior Ward Sister in the NHS and working in education.This background gives me a deep,grounded understanding of human vulnerability,stress,and the physical toll that emotional distress takes on our bodies.

Beacause everyone is unique,I do not use a rigid,'one size fits all"approach.I tailor our sessions specifically to you.We might explore how past experiences are shaping your present difficulties (Psychodynamic), look at how anxiety triggers your thoughts so we can interrupt that worry cycle(Psychoeducation),or practice reframing unhelpful patterns(Cognitive reframimg).Together,we will build practical tools to help you move forward into a calmer,more comfortable way of living.

I offer warm,collaborative and tailored therapy to help you find a calmer,more comfortable way of living

My client's wellbeing lies at the very heart of my practice.I aim to offer you a genuine,warm,and entirely non-judgemental space where you can be heard. Our work together is a collaborative partnership - we wil set clear goals based on what you want to achieve,and we will regularly check in to make sure therapy is adapting to your needs.

To fit seamlessly into your life,I offer therapy online and via the telephone.This gives you the complete flexibility to choose a convenient space where you feel comfortable - whether that is a quiet room at your office,your home or a private space outdoors.

No travel time, no need to download anything.I will  send a user friendly Zoom link to your email address where clicking the highlighted link takes you through to my screen where we can meet face to face.

Taking the first step can feel daunting,and it is perfectly normal to feel a bit anxious or apprehensive.To help you decide if you would like to move forward I offer a free 20 minute no obligation telephone call .You can see how it feels to talk with me and can ask any questions or clarify any issues you are unclear about.

Our first session is all about ensuring you feel comfortable and mapping out the road ahead.Together,we will complete a brief assesment to identify the specific difficulties you are facing and what you hope to get out of therapy.

I will share a few immediate strategies that you can start using straight away to enhance your wellbeing.If you feel comfortable,we can then begin exploring issues you feel would be helpful.

I have worked as a supervisor for many years in the NHS prior to training as a counsellor and post counsellor training to trainee and qualified counsellors. I have delivered both individual and group supervision.

I use Hawkins and Shohet's seven-eyedmodel of supervision. I find this model supports me to focus and reflect on the core relationships within the supervisory process i.e. the client supervisee and the supervisor. I find this model also offers clear guidance and structure which helps me to continue to develop as a supervisor and to deliver constructive and effective supervision

I am an experienced and accredited Integrative Counselling Psychotherapist. I have a first-class Degree in Rehabilitation Studies and a Post Graduate Diploma with merit in Integrative Psychotherapy completed in 2013. I also hold an Online Therapy Specialist qualification incorporating both online and telephone counselling completed in 2017.

I offer telephone supervision and online supervision via the Zoom platform. I also offer face to face  supervision working from home which is a single storey  building with outside parking available.

I offer a reduced rate for trainee counsellors of £60/90minute session.

Client and supervisor wellbeing lies at the heart of my supervision practice. I work collaboratively with my supervisees  to facilitate open discussion and observation within an environment which supports reflection and professional development. 

In our first session together we will complete all necessary documentation including contracts. We will also discuss Hawkins and Shohet's supervision model and how we can integrate it into our supervision sessions. Our first session is also an opportunity to get to know each other a little and how I can help you as a supervisor.

I bring myself to our supervision sessions and I would describe myself as genuine, warm, non-judgemental and easy to talk to. I have a good knowledge base which I continue to strengthen through Professional development.
