Every trauma tells a story that has not been truly heard, leaving the core self raw and invalidated and keeping you small. You may find yourself facing many challenges at various times in your life.

Every trauma tells a story that has not been truly heard, leaving the core self raw and invalidated and keeping you small. You may find yourself facing many challenges at various times in your life. Sometimes feeling shame or afraid to speak up, struggle with low self-esteem or confidence issues, feeling stuck or like you are living in a dark place with no sense of how or where to find the light.
I am a highly experienced Person-Centred Counsellor and Psychotherapist registered with the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP). I help people of all ages who are looking for mental and emotional health support with trauma including: -
Relational issues
Narcissistic Abuse
Codependency
Anxiety
Depression
Self-Harm
PreMenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)
Emotional Abuse
Sexual Abuse
Coercive and Controlling Relationships
Childhood Trauma
Bereavement
Shame and worthlessness
Self-harm
Suicidal Ideation.
My intention is to support you to understand your thoughts, feelings, and life experiences as valid responses to your previous and current experience so that you can feel empowered, heard, and begin to heal.
My Experience
I graduated from the Anglia Ruskin University with a DipHE in Person-Centred Counselling for Children & Adolescents and a BA (Hons) in Counselling & Psychotherapy working with adults.
I trained and worked with the Woman’s Trust helping women of all ages experiencing domestic abuse, overcome emotional and mental harm from narcissistic abuse, coercive and controlling relationships, codependency, sexual violence, and all forms of abuse. I know and understand the different ways abuse can impact individuals and their sense of self - anxiety and depression, trauma, suicidal feelings, self-loathing, shame, and worthlessness.
How I work
Processing deeply held loss, grief or trauma in therapy can be both painful and life changing. You will go at your own pace and share what only feels right for you, as YOU are the expert of YOU.
I have a deeply empathic person-centred approach and give you the time and space to express your feelings and discuss your experiences openly, in your own words and in your own time. I will work sensitively with you as a compassionate witness to your story; without judgement, and with unconditional acceptance.
Mind & Body (Somatic experience)
With a VTCT diploma in complementary therapies and background as an energy practitioner, I offer a very calming space where you are treated with sensitivity and respect. I am very in tune with the mind/body connection, and I work very much with the sensations and emotions that are stuck in the body, presence (the here and now), your felt sense, energy, grounding, and imagery.
I am from a spiritual/holistic therapy background, and I am a healer, however,
"A healer does not heal you. A healer is someone who holds space for you while you awaken your inner healer, so that you may heal yourself." – Maryann Hasnaa.
