Weekday evening and Saturday Online sessions available

Taking time to talk about how you're feeling and understanding its impact on your life is a valuable first step toward relief.

Clients often describe me as warm, supportive and easy to talk to yet also direct and focused. Once we agree on a goal, I'm committed to helping you work towards it. I work integratively, drawing from person-centred therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy CBT, psychodynamic theory and solution-focused approaches to tailor treatment to your individual needs.

Our first session is free, a chance to explore what's brought you to therapy and see whether we are a good fit. You'll do most of the talking while I ask questions to understand your experience more fully. Together, well identify your goals and consider the most effective way forward. There's no obligation to continue unless it feels right for you.

We typically begin by addressing what's happening right now. Many clients arrive feeling anxious, overwhelmed, exhausted or stuck sometimes without knowing exactly why. We’ll focus on what can be shifted quickly to help you feel more in control, including any thoughts or behaviours running on autopilot. If the past is shaping the present, we can explore that too. By uncovering patterns that no longer serve you, we can design a more intentional path forward.

Common issues I work with include anxiety, depression, stress, anger management, bereavement, low self-esteem, men’s issues, and a general sense of being stuck or directionless.

I work with adults, including employee assistance referrals. I specialise in online therapy, offering sessions via video, phone, or text to suit your needs.

With multiple degrees, specialist postgraduate training, and thousands of hours of client work, I bring a depth of knowledge but more importantly, a real commitment to helping you make meaningful change.

Most clients start to notice positive shifts within the first month.

I offer short or long-term work customised to your needs and financial situation. Sessions in the evenings from 4-9pm are available. All of my sessions are on Zoom or via phone.

Sometimes, short-term therapy is enough to get you through a crisis or move towards a goal. I have experience working to a time-limited deadline and many clients prefer having a package of a certain number of sessions to work towards a specific point.

Certain problems run deeper. Longer term work can help to get to the root causes of a behaviour or feeling and stop the problem ever happening again. For these issues, we can work in a more open-ended way where we set the goal and agree to work towards it and then keep going until it has been met. We will review our work as we go, making sure we are still working on goals that you feel are important.

Sessions are 50 minutes long and can be arranged individually or in packages of 5 sessions (with a discount for block bookings). We would try to meet once per week, at a regular time.

All sessions are online via Zoom unless you would prefer to work without video in which case, phone sessions can be arranged.

I am registered with Aviva, Axa, Bupa, Cigna and Evernorth, Vitality, and WPA and can directly bill these insurance providers. Please contact me for further information.

Our initial session will be free of charge, offering an opportunity to explore your current situation and identify what’s troubling you. 

Together, we’ll clarify what you want to change and decide if we’re a good fit to work together. This session is also for me to assess whether I believe I can help you. Typically, it takes place via Zoom, Teams, or over the phone.

During this time, we’ll dive into your issue, and I’ll gather a detailed history of the problem. You’ll do most of the talking, after all, no one understands your experience better than you, but I’ll ask plenty of questions to ensure I get a full picture of what’s going on.

Together, we’ll identify any patterns in behaviours, thoughts, or beliefs that might be holding you back. We may even address some of these patterns during the session to provide immediate relief, if possible.

At the end of the session, we’ll discuss what our future work could look like if you decide to continue. You’ll leave with a clear sense of what to expect in future sessions. If I feel my services aren't the best fit for your needs, I may offer alternative suggestions or provide resources to support you.

There’s no obligation to continue unless you feel confident and ready to move forward.
