At challenging times, it seems easier to ignore the pain and turn away from what's 'injured' within us. Indeed this may feel the only way to keep going.

Often we find that this strategy hasn't worked and what we haven't faced, comes back. It wants to be heard and seen. Until the pain is understood and 'digested', it can stop us in our growth and the enjoyment of life.

Healing isn't about getting over the pain. It's about making sense of it so it stops taking all the space in our life. The movement to healing is different for each of us. It may include counselling, coaching, mindfulness or a somatic practice such as Yoga. Or it may comprise a combination of these. It will always be unique to you.

I have experienced first-hand the benefits of these modalities at different times of my life. They helped me gain clarity, self-awareness, motivation to see the path ahead and strength to take the next step on it.

In my work as a qualified humanistic integrative counsellor and an executive, life and therapeutic coach, I aim to offer this same support to you as my client.

I help you thrive in your relationship with yourself and others by supporting you to cultivate healthy self-esteem, build strong connections, and foster positive interactions within your personal, social and professional circles.

My counselling approach emphasises your unique potential for growth and fulfilment. It is holistic and creative in unblocking disruptions to psychological health and enabling strength and choice in the ‘here and now'. I integrate coaching skills in my counselling practice when you are ready to work on specific goals.

I use a blend of modalities tailored to suit your needs as a client. This is because my approach honours your uniqueness as an individual and as the expert in relation to your life. In fact, I believe that every individual is creative, resourceful and able, with guidance, to discover their answers and solutions.

I offer a safe, non-judgemental and empathetic space where I support you to focus, understand and reflect on what has brought you to the session. This process helps you understand yourself better, improve your relationship with yourself and others and identify blockages to your psychological health and growth. It also empowers you on your path towards flourishing, growth and balance where you can make effective and lasting changes in your life and find functional ways of coping with life's challenges.

I offer a free 30-minute initial session which can take place online or over the telephone. 

We will use this session to talk through what you wish to get out of your therapy sessions and answer any questions that you may have about how we will work together.

My counselling fees are:

• £70 per session (50 minutes), frequency to be agreed at initial consultation 
• £90 per session (relationship/couple therapy and coaching - 70 minutes), frequency to be agreed at initial consultation
