About me
Life can be hard. Whether at work or home, we can face struggles with our mental health at every turn. Reaching out for help isn't easy, but if you're reading this right now you've already taken the biggest step towards changing your life for the better.
You might feel angry, confused, frustrated, or lost. Maybe it’s affecting your relationship or family life, or your performance at work. Maybe you’ve been carrying stuff for years, or perhaps it’s something that’s happened recently. Whatever it is, I can help you.
Perhaps you're having difficulty dealing with a particular situation. You might feel lost, stuck, or want to understand aspects of yourself on a deeper level. Maybe you just can't explain how you feel, but know you need to talk to someone.

I use an integrated approach, combining Person-Centred, Gestalt, Transational Analysis and CBT, to create a bespoke therapeutic experience to help you get what you need. I offer a flexible and affordable pricing structure
