About me

Do you find yourself gripped by anxiety and worry, no matter what you do?

Are you a woman who gives your all in everything you do, but you have endless self doubt and constantly worrying about how others see you? You frequently feel overwhelmed and disconnected from what's important to you?

Perhaps it’s hard to make decisions because those what-if’s are so loud and that internal chatter is so busy putting you down. It doesn't help that you are your own worst critic.

You can't shake the feeling that something is wrong with you. ​ And while you know deep down that life doesn’t have to feel this way, finding the time, courage, and skills to actually change it feels overwhelming.​

Maybe you’re worrying excessively over everyday things, those anxious thoughts just won’t stop running wild in your head. Perhaps you’re feeling scared, tense, jittery, or just plain old sick to your stomach.  

I specialise in helping adults who suffer with anxiety, trauma and perfectionism. I offer a non-judgemental place to help you understand and learn a new way of looking at your problems and most importantly how to manage it. As an ex anxiety sufferer myself, I will never shy away from sharing my own experiences or mistakes if you can benefit from them, and, above all, I am willing to get into and sit in the “uncomfortable” right alongside you.

I know from firsthand experience that sometimes this stuff feels so big and heavy that you just want to quit. So when we work together, you won’t just get a trained therapist. You’ll get someone who truly understands what you’re going through.

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
