About me
I am an accredited Adults, Children and Young People (CYP) counsellor and psychotherapist, working in a trauma-informed and neurodiversity-affirming way. I support children (12+), young people and adults who are experiencing emotional distress, anxiety, trauma, low mood, and difficulties with regulation, identity, or relationships.
Alongside private practice, I currently work within services supporting homeless individuals and foster caregivers, which informs my grounded, systemic and compassionate approach to therapy. I aim to create a calm, safe space where clients feel understood and supported at their own pace.
How I Work
My approach is integrative and trauma-informed, combining relational counselling with nervous-system awareness. I work collaboratively, helping clients understand their emotional responses, build regulation skills, and process difficult experiences safely.
Where appropriate, I offer EMDR to support trauma, anxiety, and distress linked to past or ongoing experiences. Sessions are paced carefully, with attention to safety, consent and individual needs.
