About me
I'm Mia, an Integrative Therapist who first and foremost believes that factoring in mindfulness and self care in a busy and often overwhelming life as a working mum of two is essential.
My specialist areas currently sit within the wide spectrum of mental health, from a trauma informed focus, dementia, neurodiversity and being a carer. Please reach out if any of this resonates with you.
Please feel free to connect by email to arrange an initial free 20 minute session so that we can discuss what is present for you and if you feel comfortable enough with me to begin the journey of recovery in whatever form is right for you.

Further information
After previously working in education and mental health I decided to retrain as a counsellor as I identified an increasing need for therapeutic intervention with my clients and the sometimes life changing and positive impact this had on individuals. I do pride myself in my natural ability to build up a positive rapport with my clients, while being able to offer a safe, non - judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace. Together, we will work towards greater self - awareness, resilience and positive change. If this is the support you are looking for, I invite you to take the first step towards a more balanced and fulfilling life. Feel free to reach out - I am here to listen.
Testimonial:- ' With Mia's support, I realised that it was OK to feel the way I did about my Mum's dementia and how that impacted on our relationship and my life and our family dynamics overall. With her help I was also able to work on the increasing guilt I felt at needing and wanting time for myself away from the increasing caring responsibilities for my mum and support for my father, who was struggling also. When counselling ended, I felt more like the old me, confident in my decisions and able to work on my career, which had been on hold since my mums diagnosis'.
