About me
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or exhausted from holding it all together, you’re not alone. I am committed and passionate about helping and supporting people through difficult life experiences and challenges, to learn about themselves, their motivations and choices, to develop their internal understanding and make positive changes towards finding a way forward in life.
I have gained a wide knowledge of experience supporting people who are suffering from a range of mental health issues, heightened or generalised anxiety, OCD, depression, panic attacks, stress, loss and bereavement, feelings of sadness, loneliness, isolation, lack confidence and low self-esteem. I have also worked with individuals who suspect they may have ADHD
I believe the relationship between the Therapist and the client is the key to success, it's important to work with someone you feel comfortable with and able to connect with so we can work together.
There are many situations where I will adapt a therapeutic approach to best suit your individual needs and build a professional relationship with you, so in time you can explore and find your own resolution.
I would like to support you throughout your difficult journey so please get in touch for an initial chat as it is important you feel comfortable and able to connect. I can provide a one off session, short term or long-term therapy according to your needs.
I am based central to Milton Keynes and Bedford and offer a quiet, private space for face-to-face, and online counselling sessions that can be attended from the comfort of your own home.
Please feel free to arrange an introductory call or drop me an email.
