I understand that life can be challenging, complicated and painful, and sometimes we don't know where to turn. It can be hard to share your thoughts and feelings with family or friends, but you still need someone by your side who can help. I would love to be that person for you.
Why me?
You might come to me because you want to make changes in your life. Because you want to understand yourself or others more. Or because you simply wish to be heard and valued.
I offer a genuine, caring and compassionate relationship. I get that feeling of desperately trying to "get it right," the overwhelm, the big feelings, the negative voice in your head that just seems to get louder, and the "something feels off" without knowing quite what that is.
I typically work with (though this isn't exhaustive):
Neurodivergence
Anxiety and depression
Relationship or family difficulties (individual work)
Burnout and work stress
Trauma
Self-esteem, confidence, boundaries and people-pleasing
Bereavement and menopause
I have particular experience working with people who are neurodivergent (autism, ADHD, AuDHD, and others), including those late-diagnosed or self-identifying; we can explore what that means for you. It's not about fitting into a mould; it's about understanding how your brain works and building a life that works with it, not against it, whilst being aware of related experiences like rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD) and pathological demand avoidance (PDA, or otherwise known as Persistent Drive for Autonomy) if they show up for you.
If you're a parent, carer, or partner of someone neurodivergent, we can also explore how that relationship affects you. And as a qualified ADHD coach, I can bring in practical tools for things like executive dysfunction and task paralysis alongside the counselling work.
Whatever's brought you here - neurodivergent or not - the same applies: there's no mould to fit, just your own way of making sense of things.
About you:
Does this sound familiar?
Life feels heavy in a way you can't always explain
A tiredness that sleep doesn't touch
A sense that you've been trying to get everything "right," but you still don't feel like yourself
Maybe that shows up as:
Feeling overwhelmed, lonely, or burnt out — but not wanting to be a burden, so you keep it in
Relationships that feel like a struggle
Being a perfectionist, or someone who gives a lot and is tired of not getting the same back
Wanting to find your voice, or hold the boundaries you admire in others
Simply wanting a space to be heard
You don't need the right words. You don't need to know what's "wrong."
You just need somewhere to bring it, a space to be curious, and to slow down enough to hear yourself think
About therapy:
Therapy can feel like a leap into the unknown, whether it's your first time or not. I've been there myself, and I know how scary - and brave - that leap can be.
Talking helps us understand the different parts of ourselves. It's a place to be messy and human, to be understood, and to hear yourself, alongside someone there to help you unravel tangled thoughts, hold big feelings, and heal.
We'll go at your pace, with room to stop, pause, and breathe as we make sense of things together.
If any of this sounds like you, I'd love to hear from you.
I offer a free 20-minute call to get to know each other, answer any questions, and help you decide if I'm the right fit, or you're welcome to book a paid session with no obligation to continue.
