About me and my therapy practice

I specialise in helping people navigate the complexities of work-related stress, anxiety, depression, domestic abuse and trauma, offering compassionate and expert support tailored to your unique needs.

The demands of modern work life can lead to overwhelming stress that affects both personal well-being and professional performance. I provide targeted therapy to help you manage and reduce stress, improve coping strategies, and achieve a healthier work-life balance. Whether you’re dealing with burnout, workplace conflict, or job dissatisfaction, I’m here to guide you toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Trauma, whether from the workplace or personal experiences, can deeply impact your mental and emotional health. I offer specialised therapy to support your journey towards healing and recovery. My approach includes evidence-based techniques to help you process and overcome traumatic experiences, rebuild resilience, and restore your sense of well-being.

Why work with me?

With extensive training and experience in work-related stress and trauma, I provide expert guidance to help you address and overcome these challenges effectively.

I tailor my therapeutic approach to your individual experiences and needs, ensuring that you receive the most relevant and impactful support.

My practice is dedicated to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can openly explore and address your concerns. 

Practice description

 If you’re ready to tackle work-related stress or trauma, I’m here to help you navigate your path to recovery and personal growth. Together, we can work towards achieving greater peace, resilience, and well-being.

I am trained in person centred, psychodynamic, CBT and EMDR therapy and draw upon each approach to ensure sessions are tailored to you. Essentially, research shows us that despite the approach of therapy, it is the power of the therapeutic relationship which creates positive change.

I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and how powerful and transformative it can be. Being heard, listened to and understood can be the most powerful and validating experience of all.

You may be experiencing severe job stress and find you are worrying a lot of the time but can't pinpoint why, you might want to explore past trauma and how it impacts you today, or you are struggling to make a decision about something.

Therapy is a place to explore, create self awareness and understanding of self in order to progress in your life the way in which aligns to you and your values.
