I currently have online availability and face to face walk and talk sessions dotted throughout the week.

Are you feeling lost or overwhelmed? Exhausted by what life throws at you?

Life can be a dark place, whether living with a chronic illness like ME/CFS or having a relationship breakdown, grieving a loss, or stuck in a pit of anxiety or depression? It takes courage to seek help, to find someone who will really listen.

I hope you find what I write below helpful in navigating your next steps to getting the support you need. Whether you wish to be in the big outdoors walking/sitting and talking or making use of being able to meet online.

I love to work with clients or carers/family members struggling with the journey of ME/CFS/Long Covid. Having personal and professional experience in this I know how life can become incredibly isolated. How it is so easy to lose hope. Often it's hard to maintain friendships and there is so much guilt that you can feel for not being the person you want to be for others. Coping with the loss of dreams and hopes you had. Accepting where you are right now might feel unbearable?

I have run my private practice for nearly 10 years now.

My aim as a counsellor is to facilitate that space for you and to help you find your hope again and a way forward. Or just to sit in that dark place with you so you aren't alone in it.

I also have experience in working with

- trauma

- anxiety

- depression/low mood

- miscarriage

- loss/grief

- relational struggles

- ADHD

- stress/burnout/overwhelm

- mood swings

- low self esteem

- shame

- childhood adverse events such as abuse or neglect

- lack of purpose or identity

- a sense of emptiness and meaninglessness.

- I also work with ADHD clients to help them glean the best of life and living in a way that works for them.

If you don't identify with the issues I have listed please do discuss with me what you need, and what your hopes are for our work together.

My hope is that there are ways in which we can work together which suits your journey right now.

I work online or I provide outdoor counselling in and around Northam. 

My sole focus is to build a relationship with my clients that is a space where you feel comfortable to talk about your life and the difficulties you may be struggling with. A space where you don't feel judged and feel safe.

I have an Advanced Diploma is Humanistic counselling along with many other trainings along the way and have worked in private practice for around 10 years. I work in a way where you feel guided along the process of counselling but you never feel pressured to talk about anything you feel uncomfortable with. I am client led and will work at your pace.

I work with adults of 18 years and above, I can offer short term or long term counselling, whatever suits your needs.

I offer a 20 minute telephone consultation for free to discuss your needs and also to give you space to ask questions. It's about finding someone who is the right fit for you before stepping forward in counselling.

Sessions are charged at £45 for a 50 minute session.

For outdoor therapy I charge £45 for 50 minutes.

For concessionary rates I would discuss further within the telephone initial session. I have a limited number of concessionary spaces.
