About me and my therapy practice

Are you or a young person you know feeling anxious, low, or overwhelmed? Struggling with self-esteem, relationship issues, or challenges at work or school? Wondering if you might be neurodivergent, or do you already have a diagnosis? Imagine feeling calmer and more in control—how would that change things? If this resonates, counselling could be beneficial.

I provide a safe space to build a trusting relationship, explore, and work towards your goals and potential. A judgement-free zone to voice your thoughts and be heard can be therapeutic, and sometimes, strategies and tools are also beneficial. Counselling aids in understanding thoughts and behaviours, fostering better coping mechanisms, enhancing self-awareness, and boosting self-confidence, ultimately altering how you perceive yourself and your life.

I loveworking with students and adults, helping them navigate life's hurdles and enhance their wellbeing. As a relational therapist, my goal is to offer a secure environment where clients' relationships, including the one with themselves, can be examined, comprehended, and improved. My areas of focus include ASD, ADHD, depression, anxiety, anger management, self-esteem, identity and relationship issues.

For further details, please visit my website.

My practice is in Bridport on Tuesdays and in Exeter on Wednesdays. The initial session is offered at a discounted rate of £25, providing an opportunity to determine our compatibility. Please text or email to schedule a preliminary meeting.

If you would like a 15-minute phone, Teams, or Zoom call, kindly book an Introductory call.

Practice description

I am a qualified and experienced Integrative counsellor offering the space for short or open-ended therapy, in a quiet private room or online. By listening to you, I offer a therapeutic relationship as a way to explore and make sense of feelings and behaviours, to work towards improving your sense of wellbeing.

I have experience of working with young people and adults, supporting them with life’s difficulties and changes, such as anxiety, depression, anger, identity, loss or challenging relationships. My approach is to be non-judgemental, respectful and compassionate as I listen, have the privilege to partake in your story and support you in your personal growth. As a relational therapist I aim to provide a safe space where the clients' past and current relationships can be explored, understood and improved.

My first session

I offer the first session at a reduced price of £25 for 50 minutes. Our first session will be exploring what has brought you to therapy, what your best hopes are and to see if we are a good enough fit. It is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions. If we decide to work together, we will sign contracts and begin forming our therapeutic relationship. I suggest meeting weekly for the first few sessions, we can then review and see what suits you best.
