If you've been carrying a lot on your own—overthinking, feeling anxious, disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns you can't quite explain—you are not alone. Many of the people I work with come to counselling seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their experiences, particularly when the effects of trauma, abuse, grief, or relationship difficulties begin to impact their daily lives.

With over 20 years of experience, I specialise in supporting adults affected by childhood sexual abuse, historical abuse, childhood neglect, complex trauma, grief and loss, domestic violence, and relationship challenges. I understand that the impact of these experiences can continue long after the events themselves, affecting self-worth, emotional wellbeing, relationships, trust, identity, and the ability to feel safe and connected.

I offer a warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental space where you can begin to make sense of what you've been through—at your own pace. My approach is holistic and trauma-informed, recognising the connection between your thoughts, emotions, physical responses, relationships, and life experiences. Together, we gently explore how the past may be influencing the present while building practical strategies to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and emotionally regulated.

I also work with anxiety, overthinking, shame, guilt, self-blame, low self-esteem, dissociation, and the challenges that can arise when living in survival mode. Therapy provides an opportunity to develop greater self-awareness, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful and lasting change.

I believe healing is possible. This work is not about fixing you—it is about understanding your experiences, reconnecting with your strengths, and creating a greater sense of safety, confidence, and self-compassion.

Whether you are navigating the effects of trauma, processing grief and loss, struggling in relationships, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges, you do not have to face it alone. If you're ready to begin, I'm here to walk alongside you. I offer therapy for adults online and via telephone. I look forward to connecting with you soon.
