If you’ve spent years putting others first, people-pleasing, or questioning yourself after painful relationships, you’re not alone. Therapy can offer you a space to heal and grow in confidence.

Recovering from a painful relationship, whether it was romantic, friendship or that of a family member, can feel like you’ve lost touch with who you are. Perhaps you find that you’re always trying to keep the peace to keep everyone around you happy and, in return, feel like your needs are never being met.

I help you to stop accepting and repeating unhealthy patterns you've become used to accepting. I’ll help you to increase your self-worth, confidence, and create healthy boundaries by creating space for deep reflection, healing and change to create shifts throughout your life that will last long after counselling ends.

Therapy can help you to heal and grow in confidence by:

Helping you to set boundaries and manage other people's expectations so that you can feel less guilt over doing what’s right for you.

Offering you a space to talk freely and openly so that you feel heard, empowered and safe to share your story. Encouraging you to slow down and make more time for you so that you can begin to live a life that isn’t ruled by anxiety.

Talking through any physical symptoms you might be experiencing (e.g, nightmares, nausea, headaches) so that we can make a plan together and you can start to feel healthier and sleep better. Therapy with me is warm, compassionate, and down-to-earth. I’ll help you make sense of your experiences, gently challenge old patterns, and learn to treat yourself with the same care and kindness you offer others.

I know what it’s like to heal from difficult relationships, to wonder why you wasn’t good enough, to worry how you will manage on your own because I’ve lived through those fears and so I truly understand how powerful it is to finally choose yourself, to make those brave but scary decisions and to show up for yourself and to do what works for you.

Previous clients I’ve been fortunate enough to support have told me therapy helped them to feel lighter, less stuck, able to say no and to feel more confident and ready to make decisions about their future.

You deserve a life where you feel seen, safe, and free to be fully you.
