About me

Midlife Transitions Psychotherapist & Coach � Supporting Women with Emotional Wellbeing, Identity, and Purpose:

I support women who are finding it difficult to navigate the complex midlife transition that unfolds from the late 30s through to post-60s. Perimenopause and menopause bring profound changes�not only to your body, but also to your emotional landscape, your coping capacity, and your sense of identity. Feeling overwhelmed, confused, or unlike yourself during this time is incredibly common�and it is not your fault.

Many women find themselves asking:
Who am I now? Why can't I just fix this? What's happening to my body? What needs to change for me to feel better? How do I accept who I'm becoming when I don't feel like the person I used to be? How do I feel hopeful about the future?

These are the kinds of questions we can explore together. Whether you're navigating physical changes or psychological shifts around identity, confidence, purpose, or belonging, I offer a compassionate space to make sense of what you're experiencing.

My integrative approach blends psychotherapeutic insight with practical, forward-focused coaching tools. Alongside talking therapy, I incorporate evidence-based wellbeing and lifestyle information to support both reflection and sustainable change.

Together, we can gently examine the patterns that no longer serve you and develop new ways of thinking, feeling, and living that support who you are now�and who you're becoming.

We can work on:

Managing anxiety, mood changes, and emotional overwhelm * Rebuilding confidence, identity, and self-esteem * Creating sustainable wellbeing habits that support midlife health * Exploring changes in how you care for your physical and emotional needs * Rediscovering purpose, direction, creativity, and fulfilment * Developing a vision for �future you� and taking meaningful steps toward it

My aim is to help you reconnect with yourself, regain clarity, and feel empowered as you move through this significant and transformative stage of life.
