About me

At Curlew Counselling, I offer a calm, supportive space where children, young people, and adults can gently explore whatever they’re carrying. Life can feel overwhelming at times, and reaching out for support is a brave step. My role is to walk alongside you, helping you make sense of your thoughts and feelings, understand what’s been happening beneath the surface, and find steadier ground.

I work integratively, drawing from a range of therapeutic approaches to shape sessions around what you need. Together, we create a space that feels safe and manageable, whether you’re navigating anxiety, low mood, stress, relationship difficulties, or simply wanting to understand yourself more deeply.

Curlew Counselling is a place to pause, breathe, and reconnect with your own inner resources. You are not alone.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a fully qualified counsellor registered with the NCPS. My experience working with children and young people reflects many years as a teacher working with all age ranges and more recently, working with Place2Be. Working with adults at the North East Cancer Support Charity, F.A.C.T, has given me much experience working with people from all walks of life and who are experiencing loss and bereavement, stress and anxiety, depression and low mood, and the overwhelm which comes when life is turned upside down. The power of talking through things in a safe. non-judgemental and confidential space can never be underestimated. If you need support, reach out.
