Counsellor,  EMDR Therapist and Supervisor


Hello and welcome.

My therapeutic approach combines counselling with EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) to help you process difficult past experiences that may be preventing you from living a more fulfilling life.

If you're feeling emotionally overwhelmed, I can support you to help you regain a sense of balance and control.

I aim to create a safe, compassionate, and non-judgemental space where you can explore challenging thoughts, emotions, and life experiences. You may be struggling with relationships—whether with family, friends, or colleagues—or you might be carrying unresolved pain from earlier in life. Whatever you're facing, we can work together to help you process and deal with the emotional impact. 

Businesses and Employers 

I help employees rapidly recover from stress and emotional blocks so that they can stay focused, healthy and productive. I support professionals facing high stress, burnout or emotional fatigue, especially after challenging events or in high stress roles 


I offer sessions online across the UK and in person in Bristol close to Junction 3 on the M32
