Experienced, warm, and inclusive Mental Health Counselling for women of all kinds

Feeling stuck, unable to shake difficult past experiences, overwhelmed, or like some support on a difficult journey would be welcome?

Or perhaps you’re exploring neurodivergence or looking for support and strategies after an assessment? You’ve come to the right place.

My approach to mental health places the individual needs and preferences of each client at the heart of counselling, and uses evidence-based therapeutic approaches that are drawn together by a ‘common factors’ framework – a bedrock that combines the simple elements of all good counselling to organise therapy and promote positive change.

I believe mental health isn’t ‘all in our heads’, and that physical wellbeing, our Neurotypes and other identities, social and cultural factors, and our own skills and resources all play a part in our quality of life.

My practice focuses on therapeutic work with women of all kinds, with a special interest in supporting women curious about neurodiversity.

evidence-based therapies I draw from include:

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT),
• ‘Third Wave’ Cognitive Behavioural Therapies,
• Mindful Self Compassion (MSC) and similar mindfulness and meditation resources,
• A strong grounding and formal training in trauma-informed practice,
• Motivational Interviewing (MI), and
• Sensory Modulation, “grounding” and other ‘bottom up’ tools and skills that help support the body to integrate and feel safe.

Whatever the tools we use, my clients can expect to receive counselling with a grounded, practical and strengths-based spirit that puts individual experience first and adapts to each person’s therapy preferences. 

Some Common ways that mental health counselling can help:

• When you need time and space to unpack and transform complex personal or health issues,
• If you’re looking for a supportive mental health professional for ongoing therapeutic needs,
• Providing help to develop the practical inner-skills, tools, and resources that underpin a better quality of life,
• Offering skilled assistance and care while you work to transform your experience of depression or anxiety,
• Contributing therapeutic support in times of isolation, grief, or unexpected life changes or transitions.

Specialised support:

I have a special interest in, and experience with:

• Providing an authentically Neuroaffirming practice,
• Supporting adult children of parents with emotional or mental health challenges, including women who identify as living with Complex PTSD.
• Honouring the work and challenges of women navigating life with chronic and invisible illness and disability.
