About me
I’m a counselling psychologist with twenty years’ clinical experience offering therapy to adults experiencing a wide range of challenges including anxiety, bereavement and loss, depression, identity, parenting, relationships, self-confidence, self-esteem, and stress. I offer both short-term and open-ended therapy, depending on what feels most helpful for you.
Therapy sessions provide a regular, confidential space to talk openly about what you’re carrying — worries, patterns, emotions, or experiences that can feel difficult to navigate. Together, we can explore the adaptations and coping strategies you’ve developed over time and support you in reconnecting with who you truly are. This process often brings a greater sense of grounding, reduces reactivity, and fosters clarity, self-acceptance, and confidence. Many clients find that therapy deepens self-understanding, enhances awareness of what matters most, and opens up new perspectives and choices — supporting a life that feels more authentic and aligned.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and interactive. Alongside listening without judgement, I offer questions and reflections to help you explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences more deeply.
If you’re considering therapy and would like to explore working together, you’re warmly welcome to get in touch.
