About Me
My journey
My interest in working with adult children of narcissistic parents comes from both professional training and personal experience. I understand the deep, often hidden impact this kind of upbringing can have and how powerful it is to begin untangling those patterns in a safe, supportive setting.
Over time, I've worked with many clients who have experienced the painful effects of narcissistic relationships and it remains close to my heart.
My experience
I have counselled children, young people and adults in national mental health organisations dealing with an extensive range of problems in a time limited capacity. These include anxiety, depression, OCD, self-harm, relationship issues, low self-esteem and loss. I also have vast experience supporting autistic clients. Please note, I only counsel adults over the age of 18.
I am a qualified life coach and offer counselling and coaching services combined for those who are interested in receiving help with achieving goals or overcoming barriers to success.
I have knowledge and experience counselling in surrogacy. I offer one to one therapy for IP’s (intended parents), surrogates and support workers coping with the unique challenges these journeys may bring. I have also provided supervision to staff members in a surrogacy organisation.
I have a post graduate diploma in trauma therapy supporting clients within this complex field. You may be suffering bodily symptoms as a result of trauma and we work together to make sense of them through therapies such as body psychotherapy (no touch). I am currently training in EMDR (Eye movement & desensitisation reprocessing) to further my skills in trauma therapy and will become an EMDR specialist in June 2026.
I've completed an intensive eating disorder course to further enhance the level of interventions I can offer clients. Please note, I do not provide counselling for clients in eating disorders.
I've studied Transactional Analysis (TA) at a foundation year level. This approach is incredibly helpful for uncovering unconscious processes and understanding relationships on a deeper level. Using TA, I can help you explore relationships that may have been or are difficult and stressful to navigate through. I offer therapeutic support to one partner that is part of a couple or family to understand their belief systems and how they can grow effectively as a unit. I am sorry but I do not counsel couples.
I am a fully qualified supervisor and offer supervision to trainee counsellors and qualified therapists.
I have achieved accreditation through the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy).
