​​​Hello and Welcome!
​
​​​
I am a BACP registered, person - centred counsellor supporting women through all stages of life. I work with clients experiencing difficult life events (past and present), life stages / transitions and emotional challenges. My areas of support include bereavement, low mood, anxiety, low self-esteem, family issues, relationship difficulties, loneliness... and more. I also specialise in perinatal and postnatal mental health, supporting women/birthing parents through pregnancy, early motherhood, and beyond.
You can read about the areas that I can help you with here.
Whatever you are facing, I offer a non - judgmental space, where you and your experiences will be held with compassion and understanding. Together, we will work towards helping you to feel better, to restore a sense of balance and to make meaningful and lasting change.
​
My counselling approach is supportive, compassionate, and tailored towards your individual needs. I also draw on the healing benefits of nature to support self-connection, personal growth and to restore emotional wellbeing.
You can read more about my therapy approach here.
​​​​​​
​Whether we meet in nature, in a therapy room or online, my aim is to create a warm, welcoming, and supportive space in which you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly. Together, we will untangle the complexities of whatever it is that you are going through and find a meaningful path forward.​ ​
​
I understand that finding the right counsellor can feel daunting, which is why I offer a FREE initial call and a reduced-cost first session. This gives you the chance to get a feel for how we might work together and to make sure you feel comfortable and supported from the very beginning.​

I understand that motherhood is a time when you may be feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, anxious and isolated. You may be struggling to to cope or experiencing relationship struggles or you may want a space to reflect on your own family dynamic and the way you were parented.
I am here to support you with any difficulties you may be facing and to grow in confidence on your parenting journey. ​
​
I am experienced in supporting mums with all aspects of early motherhood, including pregnancy and the post-natal period.
​
You can read more about how I support mums/birthing parents here.
​I offer face to face sessions in spaces that promote connection to nature - offering a grounding and restorative therapeutic space to support your counselling journey.
We can meet in a cosy woodland hut or a rustic converted barn in the countryside.
