About me

Taking new face to face and/or online clients.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile.

Relationships, work and life can feel overwhelming and unmanageable when we feel like we do not know where to turn.  Anxiety can build, making even  small challenges feel out of control, causing stress and depressive episodes.  I offer a calm and peaceful space where you can offload, feel listened to and supported, whilst growing in awareness and confidence of what will help is empowering.   

Are you in a relationship that feels confusing, where you are questioning what you have heard or said, having a feeling that something is not okay, although not knowing what that is?  Are family dynamics feeling toxic, are you around people that you feel unsafe with?  I work with Domestic Abuse, Narcissistic Abuse and adult survivors of narcissistic parents.  

I also have a passion for helping people who feel out of control around food. Snacking without feeling hungry or feeling as though eating and food are ruling your life can feel distressing, especially when we do not know how to manage difficult feelings.  Together we can look for new ways of emotions, stress or even anxiety, so that you feel more in control.  

I also work with Young People Aged 11-18 years

I know how important it is to support young people and their mental health. Balancing today's demands, young people can become overwhelmed and not know how to manage their emotions.  Being able to talk about what's going on, feel safe and listened to, can help a young person express themselves and learn new ways of coping with confusing emotions.

How to get started:

In the first instance, please feel free to email so that we can arrange an initial free 20 minute Zoom appointment. This will  be an opportunity to explore what you would like to get out of a therapy space and how I can help.
