  • Therapy

    When life feels difficult, speaking to someone can help us make sense of what we are struggling with. We are all able to grow and heal, yet sometimes, we feel stuck and without options. You may benefit from some support and space to process your thoughts and feelings.

     

    If you are struggling, I will work with you to help you move your life in the direction you want. I help people to explore issues from the past that can sometimes be a template for how they live today. Being in therapy with me provides a safe, supportive and confidential environment for you to explore what needs some attention.

     

    I work relationally, which means the relationship we build between us can be an important part of the therapeutic work. This is because how you connect to me might tell us something about how you relate to others in your life. I will help you develop self-understanding about how you connect with others and with yourself, to live in a way that feels authentic for you.

     

    Issues that might bring you to therapy include:

    • anxiety, panic attacks, depression and feeling low
    • relationship issues
    • struggling with identity, such as gender and sexuality
    • feeling stuck, lost and hopeless
    • change and endings
    • bereavement, loss and grief

    In the supportive environment I provide, you can expect:

    • empathy
    • warmth
    • no judgement
    • potency
    • professionalism

  • About

    I am a qualified humanistic psychotherapist and psychotherapeutic counsellor (BACP registered) with extensive training and experience supporting various issues. My integrative approach allows me to draw on multiple theoretical styles, ensuring we work together in a way that honours your individuality and supports your unique needs. I specialise in working with gender, sexuality, and relationship diversity (GSRD), providing a safe, affirming, and respectful space for LGBT+ clients, and have worked with many trans individuals. My additional training in these areas reflects my commitment to offering informed and compassionate care to the community.

     

    Before establishing my online private practice, I spent several years as a volunteer counsellor with the UK mental health charity Mind. My practice now serves clients across the UK, Europe, and beyond, and I offer a professional yet personable approach informed by my own experiences of living internationally. With a previous career and academic background in law, I bring a deep awareness of themes such as equality, power, and difference to my work, enriching the therapeutic process and helping clients explore their experiences in a meaningful and empowering way.
