I am currently accepting clients.

I offer in-person counselling from my room in Norwich city centre, as well as online sessions across the UK. My availability can vary, so please get in touch if you would like to arrange a free 15-minute introductory call / Zoom meeting or ask about current appointment times.

If you feel like you’ve lost your footing in your relationships or your own skin, you don’t have to steady yourself alone.

I offer a calm, down-to-earth space where we can begin to make sense of what feels difficult, tangled or stuck. My approach is integrative, which means I draw on different therapeutic ideas depending on what feels most helpful for you. This includes relational, psychodynamic, attachment-based, trauma-aware and mentalisation-informed ways of working.

Relationships are central to my practice. I am interested in how we come to know ourselves through others, how early family roles can shape adult relationships, and how patterns of closeness, conflict, care, silence or protection can repeat over time. You may have grown up feeling responsible for others, overlooked, criticised, or unsure of how to take up space. These experiences can affect self-worth, boundaries, intimacy, trust and the way we respond when relationships feel under strain.

I work with both individuals and couples. With couples, I aim to offer a steady, non-blaming space where each person can be heard and where the pattern between you can be explored with more care. With individuals, the work may involve understanding your emotional responses, relationship patterns, identity, trauma history, or the roles you have learned to occupy in relation to others.

I also support women navigating the emotional impact of hormonal transitions, including perimenopause, PMDD and POI. These experiences can feel disorientating and deeply personal, particularly when they affect identity, mood, relationships and the body.

Therapy with me is collaborative and reflective. 

I will not tell you who to be or what to do, but I will sit alongside you as we explore what has shaped you, what you are carrying, and what might need to change.

I work with individuals and couples in person in Norwich and online across the UK, with a particular focus on relationships, attachment, communication and the patterns that can leave people feeling distant, stuck or misunderstood.

Couples often come to therapy when the same arguments keep returning, when communication has become painful, or when closeness feels harder to reach. You may be trying to recover after betrayal, navigating resentment, uncertainty, sexual difficulties, emotional distance, life transitions, family pressures, or the impact of earlier experiences on the relationship you are trying to build now.

In couples work, my role is not to take sides or decide who is right. Instead, I help you slow things down, understand the cycle between you, and begin to hear what may be happening beneath the conflict. This might include exploring attachment patterns, unmet needs, defensive responses, trust, repair, intimacy, shame, grief, or the ways each of you has learned to protect yourselves when you feel hurt or disconnected.

I also work with individuals who want to understand themselves more deeply in relation to others. This may include anxiety, low self-worth, trauma, identity concerns, grief, family roles, relationship patterns, hormonal transitions, or the feeling of having lost touch with yourself.

My practice, Reflectful Counselling, offers a calm, relational space to make sense of what feels stuck. I work integratively, drawing on relational, psychodynamic, attachment-based, trauma-aware and mentalisation-informed thinking.

Alongside my core counselling training, I continue to undertake further professional development in couples therapy, attachment, mentalisation, menopause and hormonal transition, neurodiversity, online therapeutic practice, and the wider field of psychosexual therapy.

Sessions are available in person from my counselling room in Norwich city centre, or online.

Before beginning therapy, I usually offer a free 15-minute introductory call by phone or Zoom. This gives us a chance to briefly talk about what brings you to counselling, what you may be looking for, and whether I feel like the right therapist for you. There is no pressure to decide immediately.

If we agree to meet for an initial session, this gives us more time to explore what is happening for you and what support might be helpful. For individual clients, an initial session lasts 50 minutes. For couples, the first session is usually 75 minutes, so there is enough space for each person to speak and for us to begin understanding the relationship pattern between you.

The first session is also a chance for you to get a feel for how I work. We may talk about your current difficulties, relevant history, hopes for therapy, any previous counselling experiences, and practical details such as confidentiality, session times, fees and next steps.

For couples, I may invite each partner to share what has brought them to therapy, what they hope might change, and any concerns they have about beginning the work. Where appropriate, I may also use brief assessment tools or reflective questions to help us understand the relationship more clearly.

Fees are currently £55 for individual sessions, £85 for 75-minute couples sessions, and £100 for extended 90-minute couples sessions. 

Payment is usually made in advance by bank transfer.
