Welcome

We can all heal and thrive under the right conditions

I’m a BACP and UKCP registered supervisor, counsellor and psychotherapist with 30 years of experience. I believe that true healing happens when we feel genuinely seen and heard. In our work together, I provide a safe and supportive space to explore the deeper, often hidden parts of yourself—those places where anxiety, depression, fear, and loss can quietly take hold.

Having navigated my own "dark nights of the soul," I bring a personal understanding to the healing process. I’m here to walk alongside you, offering compassion and guidance as you work through whatever you’re facing, and helping you find your way toward peace and clarity.

I work with you to gently explore the hidden parts of yourself, including the soul-body connection where past pain and unspoken emotions are held. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can reconnect with who you are, understand what may be troubling you, and begin your journey toward healing.

I offer 10-week online sessions, providing a focused and nurturing experience to help you overcome the challenges you're facing. If you're ready to address deeper trauma, I also offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing), a powerful approach that can help you create lasting change and healing.

There are times when life events, relationships, or past traumas can deeply affect you, leaving you with a sense of discomfort and disconnection from the world and the people around you.

This disconnect can impact your work, relationships, and your sense of self, making it hard to know how to move forward or make the changes you desire.

What you may need is a space to reflect—a safe, supportive place where you can share your feelings and thoughts. Together, we can explore what’s troubling you and the dynamics in your relationships, and begin to reconnect with your inner self as we work toward healing and recovery.

PLEASE NOTE:

I work online and offer either one at a time sessions or 10 week sessions.

Making the decision to see a counsellor is a big step to take - but it can be a positive one. Please read on to find out more about how I could help you.

How can I help

Ongoing Therapy

The main aim of individual therapy is to increase understanding of our thoughts and behaviour patterns to help improve function and well-being. As a result, you can learn how to manage stress, interpersonal difficulties and troubling situations effectively. As a result, you may develop abilities to make healthy decisions, set goals and become more self-aware.

Individual psychotherapy treats emotional and personality problems or disorders by using psychological means. In other words, just like how a physician would treat fever or cold, some treatments help treat difficulties of an emotional nature. These problems can range from milder emotional conflicts to more severe trauma.

Depression

You may feel sad, irritable or empty. You may feel a loss of pleasure in activities you used to enjoy. You may find concentration difficult and feel guilty and hopeless. You may have trouble sleeping and feel tired and lacking in energy.

Anxiety

You may have persistent worry and fear about everyday situations. You may have sudden feelings of intense anxiety and fear or terror that reach a peak within minutes and become a panic attack. You may avoid places or situations to prevent these feelings

Single Session Therapy

Single-session therapy adopts a one-session-at-a-time approach to counselling. Each session is considered one self-contained therapy session with a beginning, middle, and end. See the page for Single Session Therapy for further information on how it works. I offer Single Session Therapy to both individals and couples.

Therapy for Therapists and Counsellors

I offer support and therapy for therapists and counsellors.

Trauma & EMDR

Trauma is often the result of a very stressful event or series of events that may shatter our sense of security. The trauma can leave us feeling helpless and vulnerable. Difficult experiences can leave us feeling overwhelmed, confused and afraid.

The body holds the memory of trauma, and the brain may adapt to watch out for future dangers. It is possible to develop illness and tensions or find breathing difficult as the body accommodates that trauma memory. You may have found ways of surviving, which might include depression or anxiety, addiction, phobias or relationship issues

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and panic disorders.

Clinical Supervision

Supervision will help you develop your clinical practice, manage the emotional demands of the work, and navigate the often deep waters of transference and countertransference.

I offer:

a gently challenging, positive space to explore the issues arising from your work.

a space within which you can reflect openly on the process and meaning of your clinical work.

a collaborative learning environment that will support you to make use of your knowledge and strengths,

attend to areas in which you might usefully develop your practice and thinking.

help grow your professional confidence, broaden your skillset, and ensure you have the support to do this vital work.
