About me
With over 20 years of experience as a therapist and coach, I am passionate about supporting individuals through life’s challenges. I work integratively, combining techniques to help clients build resilience, improve mental well-being, and navigate transitions with confidence.
I have a special interest in supporting women experiencing perimenopausal symptoms, helping them manage anxiety, mood changes, and the emotional impact of this life stage. Menopause affects both the mind and body, yet many women feel unheard or unsupported. My goal is to provide a compassionate space where women can explore their experiences, regain confidence, and develop practical coping strategies.
I tailor my approach to each client, drawing on a blend of therapeutic techniques to best meet their needs. This may include:
Cognitive and solution-focused approaches for managing stress and anxiety
Hypnotherapy and relaxation techniques to support emotional regulation
Coaching methods to build confidence, set boundaries, and create positive change
Training & Supervision
In addition to my clinical work, I am passionate about training and supervising counsellors. I work with ELECT Training to deliver CPCAB-accredited counselling courses, helping aspiring therapists develop their skills and confidence. I also provide clinical supervision, supporting both trainee and experienced counsellors in their professional development.
If you're looking for support, whether as a client, a trainee counsellor, or a professional seeking supervision, I’d love to hear from you.
