·       Is anxiety taking over your life?

·       Feeling totally overwhelmed?

·       Do you doubt yourself?

·       On edge all the time?

·       Worry about things that haven’t happened?

·       Think over and over about stuff that’s in the past?

·       Finding that Imposter Syndrome just won’t go away?

·       Fed up of feeling like this?

My goal is to help you go from struggling with anxiety to feeling calmer and more content. Worry, panic attacks, stress, imposter syndrome, shame and guilt come up a lot with my clients and you're not alone, much of the work I do is around anxiety.

All sorts of people come for counselling - some of my clients have a formal diagnosis - whether that’s generalised anxiety disorder, or social anxiety - whilst others aren’t quite sure what’s wrong but know they don’t want to feel like this anymore. Some are looking to explore themselves further, and perhaps are looking to make sense of their feelings or past experiences. Or maybe you’re a counselling student needing therapy as part of your studies. Whatever has brought you to read this page I’d be happy to start with an informal chat to see how I can help.

Ecotherapy and how nature can help your mental health is one of my specialist areas so a lot of my work is outside with clients - we’ll go for a walk in a woodlands or park and talk (sometimes known as walk and talk therapy). Some people prefer this because they find it easier to talk whilst we’re outside and here in Shropshire we’ve lots of amazing places to explore!

As well as anxiety I work with clients with their depression, grief, isolation, relationship breakdowns, work problems, family illness, ill health, stress, bereavements, chronic pain.

Give me a call and let’s see how I can help you. But don’t worry, I get it; reaching out to a counsellor can be a huge, scary step particularly if you’re already feeling anxious and overwhelmed so if it’s easier you can email me and we can go from there.
