I understand what it means to be where you are now, and that your life may leave you feeling overwhelmed with thoughts of the past or anxiety and uncertainty about the future. Let me offer you some hope; change is possible.

Maybe you are suffering from low self-esteem, exhaustion, and struggling to cope. You may have unresolved past experiences or trauma including domestic abuse, which can be both physical and emotional. Perhaps you have a sense of panic about life, debilitating stress about work or family. When we struggle with something difficult, we often feel unhappy, confused, anxious or overwhelmed, leaving us feeling stuck and unsure of where to start or what to do.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent 20 years working as a nurse in the NHS, an experience that taught me so much about compassion, resilience, and the importance of being truly heard. I bring a deep understanding of the emotional, psychological, and physical challenges people face and the resilience it takes to navigate them. I have also worked for various charities, helping people with a variety of challenges.

I'm trained to work with a broad range of psychological health challenges, including: anxiety, panic attacks, depression, overwhelming feelings, trauma, low self-worth and confidence, and loss and bereavement, to name but a few. I offer a range of therapeutic techniques to best support your individual needs with a compassionate yet gently challenging approach to help you make meaningful, lasting change. My approach is grounded in compassion and warmth, and without judgement, creating a safe space to explore and work through your challenges.

I will give you the tools, skills, and approaches to achieve your therapy goals in a safe space where you are firmly in the centre of our therapeutic relationship.
