About me

Hello, I am a qualified Cognitive Behavioural Therapist providing a safe, warm, and confidential space for young people and adults navigating life’s challenges. Sincere and approachable, I work collaboratively with clients to help them make sense of what they are experiencing and build meaningful strategies for positive change. 

I specialise in supporting young people and adults working through anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and questions around self-identity. Growing up and navigating modern pressures can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. 

Using practical, evidence-based CBT, we will explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours together - helping you gain a deeper understanding of yourself, build emotional resilience, and learn tools to manage everyday difficulties in the here and now. 

My aim is to offer a non-judgemental space where you feel genuinely heard, valued, and empowered to move forward.
