About me

I am here to help you explore your distressing feelings and create positive change in your life. I provide a safe, confidential, non judgmental environment to work through any difficulties you may be experiencing that aims to help you feel heard, acknowledged and understood. Guiding you with empathy and compassion to provide you with the insights you need to help explore your emotions.

My training and practice is an integrative and relational approach to counselling and psychotherapy. I work by tailoring each session to suit each clients needs, introducing various modalities to work with as we all bring something different. Working at your pace we can find a way forward so that you can lead a more satisfying and fulfilling life.

I have experience working in a secondary school for Place2be providing a safe place and support for young people. In a GP setting, working with clients presenting a variety of issues.

I have a special interest in working with people with the loss of stillborn, premature babies, single and multiple pregnancy loss supporting them through their trauma. Supporting parents with babies that are in NICU.

I feel that no parent should ever lose a child at any age but unfortunately sadly it happens too often. A parents grief for their child never ends it continues with them on their journey in life.
