About me
Are you tired of holding it all together on the outside while quietly falling apart on the inside?
I’m Natalie, and I offer a confidential, non-judgemental space where you can stop masking and start feeling safe about how you're really feeling. I support clients, especially women and young people, who feel stuck in patterns like people-pleasing, self-sabotage, and low self-worth. Often, these struggles are rooted in trauma or past experiences that taught you it wasn’t safe to be fully yourself.
I also specialize in helping you explore and navigate the heavy weight of anxiety, depression, bereavement, and complex family issues. Together, we can gently address the roots of low confidence and worry, helping you reconnect with who you are and what you need.
I tailor my therapy sessions to you drawing on a number of counselling theories and practices. I often use creative tools like art, metaphor, or imagery as a gentle but powerful way to help express what can be hard to put into words. You don’t need to be “artistic” to work this way, it's all about exploring yourself and your emotions.
I also specialise in supporting young people, and bring over 12 years’ experience from my time in education, including as a Designated Safeguarding Lead. I understand the pressures young people face, and I offer a calm, accepting space where they can feel seen and heard. I often work with young people who self-harm by exploring the reasons behind harming and exploring harm reduction.
I have experience working with ADHD and supporting clients in navigating this neurodiversity with more self-understanding and self-kindness.
I know how much courage it takes to reach out. Whether you're overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or just feeling a bit lost, I’m here to walk alongside you at your pace. Counselling isn't about being "fixed," it's about helping you understand yourself.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
