I offer both in-person sessions in a comfortable location accessible from Dorset and Hampshire (e.g., Christchurch, Southbourne, Bournemouth, Poole, Ringwood and the New Forest) and convenient online sessions, making it easier for you to access support

Understanding the whole you

I believe in looking beyond diagnoses and labels. I will work with you to explore your unique experiences and what they mean to you, helping you make sense of your own story

Supporting the local community

I am passionate about supporting my local community. I offer workshops, consultations and resources to local organisations, helping them better understand and respond to mental health challenges.

I believe in the power of knowledge. I actively promote mental health awareness in the community, fostering a greater understanding of mental wellbeing.

Working together

I collaborate with local organisations to develop bespoke programmes that meet their specific needs, contributing to a stronger and more supportive community.

Your first step

I offer a free 20-minute consultation to discuss what you are looking for and to explore how I can help you. It’s a change to get to know each other and to ask any questions you may have to decide if I am the right fit for you

Accessible support

I believe that everyone should be able to access mental health support. I offer clear and transparent pricing, with concession rates available for those who need them.

Breaking down barriers

Therapy should feel accessible and possible for everyone. Sessions can be adapted to meet your needs (e.g., shorter sessions, visual aids). My face-to-face clinic is also accessible to those with mobility challenges.
