Whatever it is that you are going through, even if you're not sure what to call it, I will listen with empathy, expertise and compassion.
I am passionate about trauma informed practice: making every effort to understand the impact of people’s lived experiences on their daily lives. My approach is based on psychological formulation, to make sense of what a person is experiencing, and then using a range of integrated approaches to help people to make changes. I care about empowering individuals to live the lives they want to live, and take a very human and empathic approach to working with people's distress.

You may have a clear idea of why you want to start therapy or you may wish to start because you feel confused and overwhelmed by emotions you are struggling to identify.
I support clients struggling with family trauma, social anxiety and health issues. You may have found that over time the coping strategies you previously relied on have stopped working and patterns of behaviour from the past are holding you back. You may feel isolated and worn down by these old habits, no longer able to cope in the way you used to as it becomes harder to put a brave face on what is an increasingly challenging situation. Working together, with empathy and without judgement, in a safe, supportive and confidential environment, we can explore your experience and help you to find a better way forward that brings you joy.

I understand that starting counselling can be a daunting experience.
I moved to Liverpool to study and, on completing a degree, I commenced a career in hospitality working my way up to a managerial position. I was working late nights, early mornings; the sleep deprivation and the pressure of the job resulted in burnout. Personal experience of stress, anxiety, burnout, overwhelm and grief, led to my counselling journey. I understand how a variety of issues and difficulties can impact day to day functioning and relationships and how distressing it can be to feel out of control of your own emotions. Talking therapy can enable emotional regulation and make space to feel calmer and more focused.

Do you feel like you have never fit in, never belonged, or that you have to be someone else when you are around other people? Has something changed in your life and now you're finding it hard to adjust? Do you struggle to understand why you do some of the things you do?

The decision to come to counselling can be an incredibly difficult one to make, often made at a time that life is at its most stressful. I work hard to ensure that the process doesn't feel too overwhelming. Counselling is a useful tool if you want to address longstanding issues, make changes in your life or simply have more of an understanding of what has brought you to the point you find yourself at today. I strongly believe that counselling should be affordable and accessible to all, I therefore keep the cost of my sessions to a minimum in order to ensure that you are free to access the counselling that you want when you need it.

I am able to facilitate an environment where you are able to discover the answers for yourself - after all, who knows YOU better than YOU! I am there to provide empathy, congruence and that listening ear you may need to get yourself on track.
I don’t have a “one size fits all” approach. I use different tools, techniques and models based on your personality, your needs and how you present in the counselling room session by session.

I'm experienced in supporting clients as they explore and manage a wide range of issues, from anxiety and stress to bereavement, trauma and self-esteem.
We all experience difficulties and challenges at some point in our lives which can leave us feeling anxious, stressed and worried. We all have past experiences that can still affect us in the here and now. Trying to make sense of these issues and experiences and trying to find our place in the world can often feel overwhelming and frightening, especially if we believe that we are the only ones feeling this way. Effective counselling can give you the time and space you need to help you to explore and begin to make sense of the issues affecting your life and allow you to focus on the changes you may want to make.

Feeling overwhelmed, isolated, or unsure how to move forward? It’s frustrating when you’ve tried all the mental health advice, yet nothing seems to help. Maybe you’ve been feeling more anxious or down lately. Perhaps you’ve lost someone close, leaving you with overwhelming grief. Or you’ve experienced something upsetting that keeps you up at night, no matter how hard you try to move on. If these challenges are affecting your self-esteem, know you’re not alone. And even if it doesn’t feel like it right now, there is hope.

I am passionate about helping people as I know how hard it can be when you feel that something isn’t right in your life or you have been through trauma and you’re trying to get to the root cause of your feelings.
I believe that everyone has the potential to be the best version of themselves by working through any difficulties they might be facing. I believe you are the expert of your life. Therapy is about exploring uncomfortable feelings and reflecting on these and how it might be shaping your behavioural patterns or ways of relating to others for you to understand yourself on a deeper level and get to the person you want to be. I believe our life experiences shape who we are and can have a negative impact on us at times, I hope to facilitate your growth and changes.

Coming to counselling for the first time can be scary and you may be nervous.
Most people find themselves in dark or confusing places at times throughout their lives, questioning who they are, wrestling with difficult questions, trauma, illness, addiction or bereavement. Sometimes people don't have anyone to share these challenges with or can't share them with those close to them. Despite proverbs about sharing problems, as a society we don't really encourage people to open up. I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to do this. I hope to offer a space in which you can feel safe and respected while you explore these challenges and move towards improved mental well being.
