I know that seeking out a counsellor can be no easy task, and if you're reading this it's possible that you may have just had enough with feeling the way that you do. Sometimes we all need support in finding a way through, and in offering that support I bring the depth of my expertise and experience as a counsellor. I work with warmth, compassion and integrity, and a genuine desire to help a person tackle the particular difficulties facing them (see my video below). As a therapist I have some 20 years experience in supporting clients of all ages and from diverse backgrounds.

Are you experiencing relationship problems, inner conflicts or life stresses? It can help to find someone who is empathic and skilled who offers a safe space in which to share these feelings and dilemmas. Sometimes the issues may have been a pressure in life for months or years, and become part of your personality. It is a relief to discover that there is a solution to be found in therapy. I am especially interested in helping clients who have experienced troubled, sometimes abusive, childhoods and early loss of significant attachment figures. Often later life experience brings back earlier trauma and distress.

The loss of people or things can bring anxiety and depression as we struggle to take care of our own needs and wellbeing. By focusing on the root of the matter, we can make some lasting and meaningful changes. The way we talk to others and ourselves is a window to what’s going on inside. My counselling space is a place for you to explore what that is. We can be too easily swept up in the day-to-day and in our long ingrained habits and beliefs that it takes dedicated time and focus to unravel what really is causing us pain, the grudges and guilt. I am a supervisor-in-training for BACP counsellors (see website for more).

I understand how difficult it can be to reach out and find the right therapist. I’m here to provide a safe, supportive environment tailored to your unique journey. Together, we’ll work through your challenges, empowering you to make informed decisions and achieve lasting change. I can support you when perhaps you feel you don't have anyone to discuss your thoughts and feelings with. Other people may try and give you a solution and fix the concern, when really you just need someone to listen without fear or judgment.

Summary: Simple, clear, listening. Processing with feedback offered if required. If you need a quick chat, or get something off your chest, shorter sessions are offered. I can cover a number of situations relating to the past, present or future plans and goals. A subject that pops up frequently - empathy or lack of it in several situations. Boundaries, relationships, stress... modern life. Perception, beyond face value, consideration, the who, what, why, when and how. Connection from the past, present and future goals.

Are you feeling lost, disconnected, or unsure of where to turn? Perhaps you've been carrying the weight of past experiences that you can’t shake off, leaving you feeling stuck and exhausted. You find yourself constantly busy, with no time to focus on your own needs, and the things that once brought you joy or a sense of identity seem out of reach. Connecting with friends feels difficult, and anxiety only deepens the sense of isolation. You may not even recognize yourself anymore and wonder if life can truly look or feel any different.
