Sometimes life presents challenges that leave us feeling overwhelmed, isolated, misunderstood, confused or even as though we have lost a part of ourselves. As an integrative counsellor and holistic health and wellness coach, I believe that the most effective support is shaped around each person’s unique needs. My approach is flexible and adapts as you progress. Regular reviews mean we can decide on the nature and direction of support together. My aim is always to empower you to navigate life’s experiences, through a client centred, relational and co-creative approach.

I practice from a 'trauma informed' perspective, providing a non-judgemental, warm, secure environment where you can safely explore difficult emotions at your own pace. My wish is for you to feel seen, heard and accepted for the one-of-a-kind person you are.

I can offer support as an integrative counsellor or as a holistic health and wellness coach. Where appropriate a hybrid approach can be considered.

My peaceful therapy room is located within beautiful National Trust grounds offering a tranquil environment and the possibility of outdoor therapy where appropriate.

I offer small group workshops periodically which aim to provide support at more affordable rates. These will explore the following: Menopause, holistic health and wellness, and meditation and mindfulness. Please contact me for further information.

I became a counsellor and holistic health and wellness coach because I believe our physical, emotional and spiritual health are all intricately entwined. My previous clinical role in the NHS highlighted the importance of holistic wellbeing and the way in which difficult life experiences can impact work, relationships, quality of life and the physical body.

If appropriate, I may offer to work somatically (with the body) to help you release and process challenging life experiences that have become 'stuck'. This does not involve physical contact. Complex grief, abuse, difficult childhood experiences, painful events or life transitions in adulthood and complications around pregnancy may present physically. Awareness and exploration of this, together with some practical and simple tools may help to relieve such physical symptoms, while enabling the trauma to be safely processed and released.

As a holistic health and wellness practitioner I aim to provide a personally tailored package of support. Within this fast paced world, so many of us lose track of our own health and wellbeing, moving through life from day to day without truly enjoying the moment. Together we can explore activity levels, diet, sleep patterns, work, relationships and ways to manage stressful life events.
