About Me 

I am a person-centred counsellor and psychotherapist who is compassionate and sincere. I provide a caring, safe environment and the conditions needed for personal exploration.   With genuine interest and kindness, and being alongside you, I listen to understand and be with you to explore your thoughts, feelings and current difficulties.  Together we pay attention to what is going on in both mind and body. There isn’t always an easy answer or a way to simply wish difficulties away—but together, we can gently explore what’s happening and move forward at a pace that feels right for you

Through my own inner work and healing, I have come to realise the inner wisdom and strength that can unfold when exploring painful feelings and experiences, helping us to make meaning of our life or current challenges. 

I also work in a trauma specialised way through the work of Janina Fisher,  emphasising relational safety, somatic or emotional regulation and exploring parts (thoughts, feelings, behaviours, sensations) of us that often disturb us, this can help us make sense of past trauma. This disturbance often holds the key to growth. From my experience, healing from trauma is supported by a nurturing, supportive therapeutic relationship and it is not uncommon for some to have therapy for several years. 

I have engaged in Process Work, which enhances awareness of our inner process and helps us to understand how external events impact us. I have found this work to be transformational. Exploring inner processes and conflicts without judgement can support our healing process and help us to address life challenges and mental health diagnoses.

Rewind Therapy

Rewind is a gentle process that helps ease trauma, anxiety, and phobias. It is quietly transformative - no need to re-live distressing memories or speak them aloud. Instead, it works by allowing the mind to process and reframe what’s been stuck, often bringing a deep sense of relief and calm. Rewind is one of the ways you can be supported in reconnecting with your sense of stability and wholeness - gently, and at your pace.
