My Approach

Accessible Online or Face-to-Face Sessions

Therapy is offered via the secure video platform 'Zoom,' allowing you to attend sessions from the comfort of your home and fit them into your busy schedule.

If you're able to travel, I also offer face-to-face sessions in a lovely, peaceful room in Gosforth, Newcastle.

Ongoing Weekly Support

I usually work with clients on a weekly basis, at the same time each week. That kind of consistency helps build trust, creates a steady rhythm, and offers the support you need as the work deepens.

At the same time, I understand that therapy is a big financial commitment. I aim to make the work both meaningful and affordable. Some people come for a focused block of 8 to 12 sessions, while others choose to work with me in a more open-ended way — we can talk together about what feels realistic and sustainable for you.

Private Insurance

I am also a recognised psychotherapy provider for Aviva, AXA Health and WPA. If you have a policy with one of these insurers, please contact them to confirm whether your policy covers you for psychotherapy work with me.

My first session
Getting Started

Free Introductory Call:

Taking the first step toward healing can feel daunting, but I’m here to support you. I offer a free 20-minute introductory call to discuss what you're looking for and how we might work together. This call gives us the opportunity to see if we’re a good fit and for you to ask any initial questions about the therapeutic process.

First Session:

If we decide to move forward, the first 50-minute session will include gathering information about your history and background. It will also help me understand what you're currently experiencing and how it affects your life and relationships. You'll also receive my Welcome Pack, which includes my Therapy Agreement and Privacy Notice.

About Me

Are you tired of holding it all together? Of putting on a brave face when there’s so much beneath the surface that nobody can see? You go to work, you do your job, and to everyone around you, you seem "fine". They don’t see the pain you’re carrying or the anxiety that creeps in late at night. They have no idea of the doubt you grapple with or the pressure you’re under.

How I can help

I’m a qualified psychotherapist who helps people manage the impact of stress, anxiety and trauma. I’m also down-to-earth, deeply empathetic and know how hard it can be to share those more vulnerable parts of ourselves we keep hidden.

I offer a space where you don’t need to pretend everything is "good" and can share how you truly feel, at your own pace and without judgement. Together we can explore what’s beneath the surface to understand where it comes from and to find ways to cope. This could be by getting curious through conversation, creative approaches, or EMDR, a powerful type of trauma therapy.

My hope is that you leave feeling seen, deeply understood and better able to navigate the challenges you face.

Taking the next step

I offer a free 15 minute video call to explore if we might be a good fit and to find a weekly space that works for both of us. Please email me to arrange a call.
