About me

Are you feeling overwhelmed, or struggling to keep up with the demands of daily life? You may be experiencing anxiety, stress, or low mood, or perhaps you feel stuck and unsure how to move forward? You might also be searching for a greater sense of meaning or balance.

I offer a supportive space where we can work together to develop new strategies, build practical skills, and deepen your understanding of your emotional health. Using a range of therapeutic techniques within the Human Givens framework, I help clients identify their goals and find ways to achieve them. Together, we’ll explore how you can meet your emotional needs in ways that feel both enriching and sustainable.

Each session begins with listening – really hearing your story. Together, we will explore what’s going on for you and what your goals are. From there, we’ll collaborate to find solutions that are right for you, enabling you to move forward step by step. It’s often surprising how much difference small changes can make. Whether it takes a few sessions or longer, we will work at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

My background as a breastfeeding counsellor has given me extensive experience in supporting families through the emotional ups and downs of pregnancy, early parenthood, and infant feeding. I bring that understanding of the challenge of facing complex and intense difficulties to my work as a psychotherapist.

I have a particular interest in counselling for life transitions, including times of change, uncertainty, beginnings, and endings. This includes supporting clients through experiences such as relationship breakdown, divorce, and family estrangement, where feelings can often be complex and difficult to navigate.
