I am a person-centred therapist offering online therapy for anyone seeking a space to feel heard, understood, and supported. My approach is grounded in empathy, authenticity, and respect for each person’s unique life experience. I offer a calm, creative, and non-judgemental space to explore whatever feels most present—whether that's anxiety, grief, trauma, identity, or simply the sense that something needs to shift.

Alongside my online practice, I work in an SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health) primary school, where I support children through creative and movement-based approaches to therapy. This ongoing work with children continues to deepen my understanding of emotional expression, regulation, and relational safety—insights that often enrich my work with adult clients too.

I offer a reflective and supportive space to:

Navigate anxiety, depression, low self-esteem or emotional overwhelm

Process experiences of trauma, grief, or disconnection

Explore relational patterns and how early life experiences shape the present

Reconnect with your values, motivation, and inner voice

Find clarity and support through life transitions, uncertainty, or burnout.

My work is rooted in person-centred values of deep listening, and a belief in your inner capacity for growth. My background includes extensive experience in education, social care, and community settings, which informs my relational, down-to-earth way of working.

Online therapy allows you to access sessions from the comfort and familiarity of your own space. Whether you're seeking support with a specific issue or want to explore your inner world more deeply, I offer a warm, non-judgemental presence.
