Hello

My journey into counselling began with Child Bereavement UK, where I worked as a Support Worker supporting children and young people who had experienced the loss of a parent or sibling. During my time with the charity, I offered one-to-one befriending support and later facilitated group workshops, helping young people feel less alone as they navigated their grief.

In January 2018, I went on to work as a Counsellor in a Grammar School. I supported Sixth Form students with exam pressure, stress, and social anxiety, as well as younger students aged 11–15 who were struggling with emotional challenges related to family breakdowns, bereavement, self-harm, and anxiety. Working with young people during such important stages of their lives deepened my understanding of how early experiences can shape emotional wellbeing.

Wanting to broaden my experience, I later worked with adult clients at Mind in Aylesbury. This role allowed me to work with people from many different backgrounds, including those experiencing anxiety, addiction, depression, loneliness, and isolation in later life. While clients often came to therapy with a specific difficulty, our work together frequently uncovered deeper life experiences that were influencing how they felt and coped in their everyday lives.

In 2019, I established my private practice, where I expanded my work to include Veterans and Blue Light professionals experiencing trauma, PTSD, and relationship difficulties. In 2021, I further developed my skills by training in couples and family systems therapy. Today, I specialise in working with trauma and relationship issues, supporting both individuals, family members and couples to better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and move towards greater balance and wellbeing.

I have the utmost respect for the courage it takes to begin counselling and to show up, even when it feels difficult. I am deeply passionate about my work and feel privileged to walk alongside my clients as they make sense of their experiences, reconnect with themselves, and notice positive change over time.
