About me

When life is tough it can challenge our emotional health and well being, making us feel overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, depressed, angry or lacking in self esteem. My clients often find it difficult to put words to their feelings or to make any sense of what they are experiencing and this can be both frightening and isolating. Counselling can be a positive step, transformative and meaningful. Change is made possible through the supportive, non-judgmental, therapeutic relationship, which helps us to move towards acceptance of self or empowerment to change.

A BACP Accredited therapist working in East Sussex, I draw on the theories of Existentialism, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis and Humanistic Phenomenology with additional training around trauma, addiction and working with young people aged 8 - 18. I respect the unique and individual way in which we all experience the world and I work with honesty, empathy and curiosity to the best of my ability to hear your story and try to understand and create meaning around your experiences. As such, I respond to and tailor my sessions to you, the client.

I welcome you into a safe space as a professional and over time we build trust. I will help you to put words and meaning to painful or confusing feelings in this supportive, quiet, non-judgmental space. I am trained to work online and also have therapy rooms in Hove and Chailey, working creatively or outdoors where appropriate. Please look at my web site for more about me and my work.

I believe we all have the capacity to change and I am dedicated to helping others bring about healing and growth.
