About me and my therapy practice

Is life feeling a little heavy, overwhelming, confusing, or maybe there are some big things going on and you don’t know where to go or what to do?  Finding a space to speak openly with a trained professional can help towards a better understanding of what is going on for you, a space free of judgement and not trying to fix you.  The power of talking alleviates the monster in our head, which as I know can drive us to feeling even more anxious and overwhelmed.

I help those going through difficult life circumstances, grief, loss, anxiety, low self-confidence, anger issues, family conflicts and depression. Whatever it is, you are not alone, I know it is hard to reach your hand out for the support you need.  I am here to lighten the load, helping you towards a better understanding of who and what you are, taking back control of those thoughts in your mind and leading to a healthier, happier and more fulfilling life.


Practice description

Our work together will provide an inviting and safe sanctuary for you to explore challenging patterns of behaviour, re-evaluate your values and beliefs working towards a deeper understanding of who you are.  Through exploration and commitment, we will delve into your relationships, emotions, behaviours and the experiences that have shaped you into who you are today.  Our goal?  To equip you with tools and coping skills which will enhance your physical, emotional and mental well-being, moving towards a life filled with more self-knowledge, resilience, confidence and creating a sense of worth and control.

Life’s challenges do not define your future, change is possible with the correct support, ultimately leading to increased self-awareness of your internal world, thoughts, feelings and behaviours.  Change is not just possible; it is within reach.  Let’s sit and navigate this journey together with trust, warmth and some humour too.

I have worked full time for a number of years with a wide range of clients, I am equipped with a variety of therapeutic approaches, ready to tailor a unique and concise therapeutic plan that aligns to your goals, wants and needs.  Our journey together is solely focused on you and is not purely about overcoming life’s obstacles or challenges, it is also taking a dive into you truly understanding your patterns of behaviour and where they began.  We will also look at the environment you live in, understanding, adapting or addressing the things that may need changing.

My first session


Our first session will be slightly different, I will complete a questionnaire in order for me to understand what you are struggling with, to some insight into your world and what has been going on for you. Also a chance for you to ask any questions about me.

I am a fully qualified, registered, insured and hold an enhanced DBS check.

Life can feel pretty overwhelming and heavy at times, it feels like the smallest issue is the biggest, or maybe you are going through something really big right now that is weighing you down. Whatever it is, it is okay to talk about it, you may be feeling like you are a burden or everyone else has their own problems going on.

Are you feeling like this?

You may be struggling with anxiety, grief, loss, low mood, depression, work stress, not feeling good enough, low self-confidence and self-worth, panic attacks, family conflicts or generally overwhelmed by life? It helps when we have a space to talk about what is going on for us, speaking to a counsellor who is trained to help you heal, grow, understand your inner world and learn about who you are , as well as providing a sanctuary of kindness, warmth, support and genuine care.

Practice description

I am an integrative counsellor, which means I am trained in different approaches to therapy. Collaboratively we will create a plan specifically designed for you, including identifying your needs and wants, setting attainable goals towards the changes you wish to make and working towards growth and a more positive mindset. I am passionate about creating change and growth for those facing some difficulties in their or life. Whatever it is, I am here to guide you on your journey with a trusting and warm relationship, which is the core of our work together and fundamental to the therapeutic relationship.

I can help you navigate your big or little problems with gentle exploration of your patterns of relating in your relationships and as well as yourself. Additionally learning to understand your behaviours, emotions, feelings and responses and the way your life's experiences shaped you into the person you are today. I aim to help you develop coping skills and strategies to improve your overall physical, emotional and mental health.

I am interested and passionate about trauma, anxiety, grief and men's mental health, low self-worth and confidence.
