About me and my therapy practice

Are you feeling anxious or worried most of the time, with that feeling of dread or panic? Have you started withdrawing from social things or avoiding certain situations, that cause overthinking, racing heart and churning in the stomach? 


You might also notice the following 

* Feeling tense, nervous or unable to relax?

* Have a sense of dread, or fearing the worst?

* Feel like the world is speeding up or slowing down?

* Feel like other people can notice and see your anxiety? 

* Feel like you can't stop worrying, or that bad things will happen if       you do stop?

* Fearing the fear of panic?

* Overthinking what others are thinking about you? 

* Overthinking certain situations over and over? 

* Worrying looping thoughts about your future?  


I have helped many people over the years to manage and overcome their anxiety, panic and other problems that are negatively impacting the way they live their lives. We might look at past events and different stages of your life that have impacted and influenced how you may think, feel and behave in today's world. We will work together to make sense of what is going on in your life, rebuilding the courage and confidence that you have within you and gently rebalancing your emotional system, making positive life changes.



Practice description

My Qualifications and Experience

I'm registered with the BACP and accredited with the NCPS Integrative Counsellor working with all problems and specialising in Anxiety. I work in private practice for adults & teenagers and a large young people's organisation commissioned by the NHS. I was previously a school counsellor with place2be working with children from ages 7 to 17 and I am highly experienced in working with suicidal ideation, self-harm and high risk. I have also worked with the NHS youth counselling service for a number of years as well as helping to run their early help counselling hub. I work with all problems such as anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, sexual and domestic abuse, panic, self-harm, self-esteem, and suicidal ideation.

I work wholeheartedly with compassion and kindness putting your well-being at the very centre of our work. You will be heard and supported in a non-judgemental, confidential and safe space.

How and where I work

Integrative Counselling enables me to use different models of counselling that are best suited to you. These include psychodynamic, CBT, Gestalt, person-centred, solution-focused brief, compassion-focused therapy (CFT) and also using creative interventions to help deepen the thinking which brings powerful change.

Online video, phone or text: I work across the whole of the UK via online platforms such as zoom, telephone or text which means you can remain in the comfort of your own home anywhere in the Country and for some that feel anxious this has many benefits. My online sessions are secure and safe, you will feel welcomed and comfortable just like you were meeting me in person and the work will be just the same. There is no travel involved which keeps stress levels to a minimum and you can choose where ever you want to be for your session (home, office any private area or you can do text Counselling if talking out loud is not possible
