​PSYCHOTHERAPY I COUNSELLING I SUPERVISION I CPD
Hello
​I am a psychotherapist working with individuals and couples in both traditional and diverse relationships. With ten years of experience, I have supported people from a wide range of backgrounds helping them navigate challenges such as bereavement, anxiety, identity, family dynamics and personal growth. My particular areas of interest include fertility-related concerns, relationship therapy and self-improvement.

About Me
​​
I am a Humanistic psychotherapist, accredited by the UKCP, and I offer in-person sessions at my practice in North Shields. I use a range of theories and approaches which allows me to tailor your therapy to you.
Before training as a therapist I had a successful corporate career in FinTech but I found myself increasingly drawn to people development rather than business targets, with a deep interest in the uniqueness of the individual. Following my own transformative experience with therapy, I chose this path in search of greater purpose and meaning.
Personally, my roots are firmly in the local area and after travelling with work, living away and abroad, I’ve come to appreciate that there’s no place like home. As a psychotherapist, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients from various backgrounds, lifestyles, and professions. Whoever you are, you are welcome here.
Working with me
I work with variety of different issues and presentations including these areas of specific interest.​
Relationship Therapy
I work with couples experiencing relationship difficulties, using a combination of communication models and attachment and developmental theories. Many couples seek therapy when they reach a crisis point and while this is a valid reason to reach out, I encourage seeking support earlier to strengthen and improve the relationship before issues escalate. You can learn more in the Work With Me section.​
Fertility Support
I have a particular interest in working with individuals and couples navigating fertility treatment. Whether you're trying to conceive or coping with the impact and outcomes, counselling and psychotherapy can provide valuable support at every stage either for you together as a couple or individually. I work with same sex and heterosexual couples. You can find more details in the Work With Me section.​
Self-Improvement & Career Progression
Another key area of my work is supporting self-improvement and career progression. You may be feeling unfulfilled, in need of direction or ready for a change. Perhaps workplace stress or interpersonal dynamics are creating challenges that raise important questions for you. Psychotherapy can help uncover underlying patterns in your thinking, psychological structure and frame of reference that may be contributing to these difficulties. However, sometimes, simply having a safe space to talk things through can be enough.
