Hello...

I offer counselling for adults in a relaxed, conversational way, where you can talk things through at your own pace and feel listened to without judgement. There’s no pressure to explain things perfectly or to fit your experiences into a particular box. We’ll take things at your pace, and you’re always in control of what you choose to share.

Therapy with me...

People often come to me feeling anxious, caught in cycles of overthinking, or overwhelmed by life’s demands. You might feel on edge much of the time, thoughts racing, responsibilities piling up, and very little space to breathe. Counselling can be a place where we slow things down together, make sense of what’s going on, and take one step at a time.

Experience

My way of working has been shaped by many years of listening closely to people’s experiences. I spent over a decade in the voluntary sector, supporting young people and adults with learning disabilities, and later older adults. This taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and understanding how life circumstances can quietly affect self-esteem, confidence, and emotional wellbeing. I also worked with carers of people living with dementia, which has given me a deep understanding of how heavy life can feel when responsibilities grow and your own needs slip into the background.

Areas of Expertise

Areas I often help with:

Anxiety, overthinking & stress support
Low confidence, self-doubt & self-esteem
Low mood, feeling stuck & emotional exhaustion
Past experiences & unresolved emotional impact


If you need a specialist, I am able to offer therapy to people who are affected by Learning Disability, Neurodivergence
