Hello! I am a credentialed therapist in the UK with 20 years of professional experience working therapeutically with people and children. Throughout my career, I have worked with a diverse range of clients, including both young people and older adults, helping them navigate challenges related to stress, anxiety, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, and depression.
My educational background and training in Counselling, Life-Coaching, Creative Therapies and Meditation have equipped me with the skills necessary to support individuals through various life stages. I have a particular interest in women's issues, including the hormonal changes experienced during puberty, childbirth, postpartum, and the phases of peri-menopause and menopause.
One of the unique aspects of my practice is my passion for integrating nature into the therapeutic process. I am also a Woodland Activity Leader and have led numerous groups focused on helping individuals connect with nature, as I believe that this connection can profoundly enhance our well-being and facilitate a deeper connection with our true selves. Even though much of my therapy work happens online, due to having two small children at home, I strive to incorporate elements of nature and mindfulness into our sessions.
In addition to my professional pursuits, I am dedicated to my personal growth through meditation and mindfulness practices, which I have embraced for many years. This commitment to self-development not only enriches my life but also enhances my ability to support my clients on their journeys.
I am also regularly found in the woods, teaching Forest School and Wild Food and Foraging courses.
Creating a safe and open environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment is at the core of my therapeutic approach. I understand that taking the first step towards seeking a more fulfilling and happier life requires courage, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
If you're ready to embark on this journey towards self-discovery and healing, I am here to help you find the path that leads to a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
