About me
Sometimes life can feel overwhelming, confusing or simply different from how you imagined it would be. You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, family estrangement, domestic abuse, low self-worth, or changes that have left you feeling stuck. I work with adults, adolescents and couples, offering a space where you can feel heard, understood and accepted without judgement.
As an integrative counsellor, I don’t believe therapy should be a ‘one size fits all’ experience. I draw from different therapeutic approaches and adapt our work to you, your needs and what feels right for you. I also use creative approaches and psychoeducation to help make sense of your thoughts, emotions and behaviours in a way that feels accessible and meaningful.
I have a particular interest in Internal Family Systems (IFS), which can help us gently explore the different ‘parts’ of you, including the parts that protect, worry, criticise or feel overwhelmed. I’m also trained in Rewind Trauma Technique therapy, offering another way of working with traumatic experiences.
Most importantly, you don’t have to arrive knowing exactly what you need or where to begin. We can work that out together. My aim is to create a genuine, supportive space where you can better understand yourself, feel more in control, and begin moving towards the changes you want to make.
I offer both short and longer term counselling, depending on what feels right for you and what you’re hoping to work through. I understand that life doesn’t always fit neatly into office hours, so I offer flexible appointments, including evenings, with face-to-face, online and telephone sessions available. We can work together in a way that fits around your life, rather than adding another pressure to it.
