Approaches and Services

A winding river flows through a green mountain valley.
  • People come to therapy for many different reasons. You may be experiencing a specific difficulty, or you may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. Therapy can offer a space to explore what’s going on and develop more supportive ways of relating to yourself and your experiences.

    I work with a range of difficulties, including:

    • ADHD and neurodivergent experiences

    • Anxiety, including generalised anxiety, health anxiety, social anxiety, panic disorder (with or without agoraphobia), phobias, and obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD)

    • Low mood and depression

    • Stress and burnout

    • Adjustment difficulties and life transitions

    • Low self-esteem, confidence, and self-acceptance

    • Perfectionism and unhelpful self-criticism

    • Difficulties with assertiveness and boundaries

    • Shame, guilt, and distress tolerance

    • Trauma and PTSD

    • Living with long-term health conditions

  • I offer individual therapy for adults, drawing primarily on CBT and ACT. Therapy with me is collaborative and transparent, and we will work together to understand what is going on for you, what matters most in your life, and how therapy can best support you.

    I welcome clients from diverse backgrounds and aim to provide a respectful, affirming space where difference is acknowledged and valued.

  • CBT is a structured, evidence-based therapy that explores the links between thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, and behaviours. It helps identify patterns that may be maintaining distress and supports you to develop alternative ways of responding that feel more helpful.

    Sessions are practical and collaborative, and aim to support you in developing skills you can continue to use beyond therapy.

  • ACT is a behavioural therapy that focuses on helping people live a meaningful life, even in the presence of difficult thoughts or feelings. Rather than trying to eliminate distress, ACT supports you to relate to it differently, with greater openness and self-compassion.

    ACT often involves exploring values, developing mindfulness-based skills, and increasing flexibility in how you respond to internal experiences, with an emphasis on moving towards what matters most to you.

The Process

Free 30-minute consultation


A brief, no-obligation welcome call to discuss what has brought you to therapy, your needs, ask any questions, and see whether working together feels like a good fit.

90-minute initial assessment


An in-depth first session where we explore your current difficulties, relevant background, and what you would like support with. This is part of a broader assessment process that unfolds over the first few sessions, helping us build a shared understanding and shape a therapy plan tailored to your needs and pace.

Ongoing sessions (60 minutes)


Sessions usually take place weekly or fortnightly, depending on your goals and preferences. Therapy is collaborative and flexible, with regular reviews to ensure the work remains helpful and aligned with what matters to you.
