My journey towards becoming a psychotherapeutic counsellor grew from my own experience of counselling and the powerful impact it had on my life. It also reflects a long-standing interest in emotional understanding, honest communication and the importance of feeling truly heard. My own therapeutic journey has helped shape a grounded, compassionate and relational approach to the way I work with clients.
I am based in Brighton and Hove, offering both face-to-face and online therapy. I hold a BA (Hons) in Integrative Relational Psychotherapeutic Counselling from Middlesex University and I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), working within their professional and ethical framework.
Before moving into private practice, I worked within a women’s centre, NHS primary care services and Care for the Carers, supporting people with a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties. I have particular experience working with trauma, including PTSD, educational trauma and transgenerational trauma, alongside supporting adolescents and adults with neurodivergent experiences including autism, ADHD and dyslexia.
Before becoming a counsellor, I worked for many years in education as a teacher and learning support specialist. This continues to inform my understanding of emotional development, learning differences, neurodiversity and the impact that early educational and relational experiences can have on self-esteem and identity.
Alongside my counselling training, I am also trained in Systemic Family Constellations, an approach that can help explore transgenerational patterns and inherited emotional experiences which may continue to affect present difficulties and relationships.
Outside of therapy, I enjoy crafts, creativity and long cycle rides, which help bring balance and grounding to my life.
