I am currently available to take on new clients for face to face or online sessions at various times.

Specialist Counselling for Birth Trauma, Miscarriage, Relationships & Women’s Wellbeing

Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all—and neither are you. I offer personalised counselling tailored to your unique experiences, providing a safe, supportive space where you can feel truly heard and understood.

As a qualified counsellor with a background as an NHS midwife, I bring extensive experience in women’s health and emotional wellbeing. I specialise in supporting individuals navigating birth trauma, miscarriage, stillbirth, sexual trauma, and menopause, offering compassionate, professional care during some of life’s most difficult moments.

If you’re struggling after a traumatic birth, pregnancy loss, or changes linked to menopause, you’re not alone. I provide specialist birth trauma counselling and miscarriage support, helping you process your experience, reduce feelings of overwhelm, and begin to move forward.

I also offer relationship and couples counselling for those experiencing challenges such as communication difficulties, infidelity, life transitions, illness, or financial stress. I create a calm, non-judgemental space where both partners can feel heard, rebuild trust, and strengthen their connection.

As a birth trauma therapist, I can work with both partners to explore the emotional impact of your experience and support you in understanding how it may be affecting your relationship.

I work as an integrative therapist, combining person-centred and psychodynamic approaches to tailor therapy to your individual needs. This ensures our work together is flexible, effective, and focused on what matters most to you.

Whether you’re seeking support for trauma, pregnancy loss, menopause, or relationship difficulties, my aim is to help you feel more in control, more connected, and more like yourself again.

Counselling support available for:

Miscarriage and stillbirth

Women’s mental health

I practice in a relational way which means that you can expect warmth, empathy and non judgement from me. Our therapy will be a safe and confidential space where you can find help to explore  your issues. 

I will be a trustworthy and honest companion on your journey through the counselling process. I will not advise you or coach you but will be with you every step of the way as you navigate your issues in our therapy. My aim is to help provide some insights into what may be happening for you and to gently 'hold up a mirror' to the challenges you are facing. By doing this together we can take this at a pace which suits you and allows you to progress through difficulties with peace and acceptance. 

I offer a free no obligation 20 minute phone call prior to arranging the first session. This is for you to bring any queries or concerns you have and for us to see how it may be to work together.

If we both feel that we would like to continue we can arrange an in person or online session. 

Within our first session I aim for clients to gain an understanding of what they can expect from me. Whether you have had therapy before or this is a totally new experience we can explore your goals and how best I can support you. I use this opportunity to take a few details on you and what you feel is most important for me to know before our therapy starts.
