Please note that I work online via Zoom.

Are dealing with a loss or major change in your life such as a diagnosis of autism, ADHD or cancer? Are you feeling high levels of anxiety or overwhelmed by trauma from your past or from a current relationship? Are you experiencing family difficulties and / or realising your values are different from the ones you grew up?

I am an integrative counsellor which means I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches and techniques that are most appropriate for you as the client.

The key to successful outcomes in counselling is the quality of the relationship between the counsellor and the client so I offer a  warm, empathic and authentic approach in my interactions with you.

If appropriate, we may explore your early life experiences and relationships to better understand your current way of being.  

I work online using Zoom as I feel this gives you greater flexibility to access counselling and it allows you to be in a setting where you feel most comfortable. 

I have worked as a teacher, a psychologist and a manager. I am a mother (of two children and one cockapoo) and have lived part of my life in the Middle East. 

At some points in our lives we all need extra support and this is nothing to feel ashamed of.  In fact, asking for help is one of the best ways to care for yourself. 

My counselling process will help you to explore the sometimes painful feelings, past experiences and stuck patterns of behaviour that may be holding you back.

As a trained Educational Psychologist, I have a sound understanding of additional needs such as autism and ADHD and how processing a new diagnosis can take time and requires space to reflect. I have also have extensive experience of working with bereavement, trauma, work stress, problematic family relationships and living with cancer. 

I am passionate about helping others better understand themselves to bring about greater self-acceptance and change to lead a happier and more authentic life.

I offer a free 15-minute initial phone consultation. This allows you to share why you are seeking support and to ask any questions. 

Following this, we may set up an initial 50-minute assessment session, which will be charged, and from there we can decide whether we continue to work together.

I offer a concessionary rate of £50 to students and those on low incomes.
