Do you ever get the chance to feel truly heard, to talk freely about anything, without being judged; to feel listened-to, with genuine empathy. This is how therapy would be; together we can ‘go on your journey’ of what life feels like for you. Helping you to help yourself. I aim to provide you with the space and acceptance that you feel able to share your story in your own time at your own pace.

Learning. Discovering. Empowering. Developing self-compassion.

I am a pluralistic counsellor working in a client-led and person-centred way; mixing approaches appropriately, often including psychodynamics (looking at childhood experiences). I also use CBT and somatic practices (understanding how trauma and emotions can become stuck in the body and focussing on the connection of the mind-body, in turn providing holistic healing). I work with adults facing a variety of challenges including: loss and bereavement, anxiety, stress, depression, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, loneliness, health-related issues, life transitions and stress.

I am warm, and my approach is rooted in genuine empathy. I like to listen and help people explore themself discovering the root causes of the presenting issues. Please feel free to contact me and find out more about how I can help; please email, text and/or phone me.

I work in Guildford and Godalming, and am flexible.

I worked as a counsellor in an NHS GP practice and upon moving to Guildford joined The Eaves practice. I worked with clients with issues such as: anxiety, bereavement, bullying, depression, loneliness and stress. Before I became a counsellor I worked as a teaching assistant in an infant school, working with children with special needs. I started my career in nursing, many years ago, graduating as a Registered General Nurse from the Royal College of Nursing in 1994.
