I am a warm, compassionate and curious practitioner with a passion for self development and wellbeing, philosophy and psychology. I feel privileged to work with my amazing clients, who are all so different in so many ways, but show the same great courage when coming to me to face their fears, pain and distress. Before retraining as a counsellor in 2019, I was a primary school teacher for nearly 20 years. This experience built a strong foundation in my knowledge and understanding of childhood, parenting and family dynamics, as well as SEN and neurodiversity. I have lived and taught in many different schools and countries including Spain, Malaysia and Nigeria.

How can I help you?

My clients struggle with fear, anxiety, stress, anger, sadness and/or a feeling of being ‘stuck’, alone or confused about who they are or what they want from life. This distress is often rooted in trauma, grief, work stress, relationship breakdown, poor health, a childhood of unmet needs, and/or identity crisis. Life is tough; we must navigate multiple relationships, search for meaning and purpose in our lives, balance responsibility with choice and freedom, and endure physical and emotional pain, loss and loneliness. My clients want to be heard, accepted and understood. They want to find inner peace and to heal from their pain.

I will provide a compassionate and accepting relationship in which you can be yourself and tell your story. Together, we will untangle your feelings, thoughts and behaviours, at your own pace. I will accept and understand you, just as you are, and help you to accept and understand yourself. We can work towards change, healing and/or self-fulfilment.
