Services - Therapy Tailored to Your Struggles

As well as working with adults, I also have years of experience of working with young people and presently as a counsellor in a Sixth Form College, I’ve had the privilege of supporting young people aged 16–21 through the unique challenges of adolescence and early adulthood. Whether it’s academic pressure, relationships, self-esteem, or transitions into independence, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore their thoughts and feelings. My work has given me deep insight into the emotional and social pressures young people face, and I tailor my approach to help them build resilience, confidence, and clarity during this formative stage of life.

Adoption is a lifelong journey that can bring unique emotional complexities—for adoptees, adoptive parents, and birth families alike. Whether you're:

•⁠  ⁠An adoptee navigating questions of identity, belonging, or unresolved grief,  
•⁠  ⁠An adoptive parent managing attachment, trauma behaviours, or the emotional weight of parenting a child with a difficult past,  
•⁠  ⁠A birth family member processing loss or navigating evolving relationships,  

I offer a safe space to explore these experiences without judgment. My approach is:  
•⁠  ⁠Trauma-informed: Recognising the impact of early separation and disrupted attachments.  
•⁠  Identity-affirming: Honouring each person’s story and lived experience.  
•⁠  ⁠Practical: Helping individuals build communication tools and resilience.

Having worked in adoption support and as an adoptive parent myself, I understand the layers of this journey. Whether you’re seeking clarity, healing, or strategies to strengthen relationships, I’ll meet you where you are.  

Whether in person, online or over the phone, one-to-one regular counselling sessions provide a safe, confidential space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and challenges at your own pace. Tailored to your unique needs, these sessions help you discover and develop coping strategies, gain self-awareness, and work towards meaningful personal growth. Whether you're dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, or other concerns, consistent support fosters lasting change. Sessions are flexible, client-centered, and designed to empower you on your journey toward emotional well-being. Reach out today to start your path to healing.
