Sometimes life just feels overwhelming, confusing, painful or just “too much”.

Counselling, in a safe non-judgemental environment, is a way of unpacking and finding clarity, self-care and a more life enhancing way of being with difficult life circumstances.

 

Through regular sessions of counselling, it is possible to find ways of living with more comfort, ease, and healing. Exploring early relational wounds will bring a more settled sense of self, thus supporting present day relationships.

 

As humans we experience a multitude of emotions and thought processes. There is space for all of this in the therapy room.

I am an experienced integrative counsellor and therapist with over
25 years of supporting people through life's challenges. My work is
relational and grounded in the experience that healing happens
within the safety of a trusting therapeutic relationship. Providing a
safe, compassionate and non-judgemental environment is
paramount to my practice, allowing you to explore your thoughts,
feelings and experiences at a pace that feels right for you.
As an Integrative therapist we can tailor our work to meet your
individual needs rather than working from a single therapeutic
model. Alongside talking therapy, I incorporate body-oriented
psychotherapy where appropriate, recognising that our bodies often
hold the impact of stress, trauma and life experiences. Working with
both mind and body can support deeper awareness, resilience and
lasting change.

I have extensive experience working with adults, young people
aged 16 and over, and couples. Over the past 25 years I have
supported clients with a wide range of issues, including trauma and
complex trauma, attachment difficulties, anxiety, neurodiversity,
relationship challenges, and the impact of early life experiences. I
also have specialist experience in pre- and perinatal and birth
psychology.

​

My early training in Craniosacral therapy continues to inform my
therapeutic approach. This nurtured a deep respect for the wisdom
of the body and for each person's innate capacity for healing and
growth. I see the nervous system not as something that is fixed, but
as something that can respond and adapt throughout life. When we
experience safety within a trusting therapeutic relationship, our
nervous system has the opportunity to move out of survival patterns
towards greater regulation, connection and resilience, allowing us to
become more fully ourselves.

I experience every person as unique, and therapy should reflect
that. Whether you are coming to therapy to work through a
particular difficulty, make sense of past experiences, improve your

relationships or gain a deeper understanding of yourself, I will work
alongside you with warmth, curiosity and respect. Together we can
create a therapeutic space where you feel heard, understood and supported to move towards the changes that matter most to you.
