Reading Glasses on Book

When I was a little girl my nose was always firmly in a book. I was obsessed with stories and the worlds that they transported me to but, more than anything, it was the people within the pages that I loved learning about the most.  This fascination with what makes us all who we are, and what drives the decisions we make, has never waned; hearing the stories of the people I work with is one of the most enriching and humbling aspects of my work.

​

It's no surprise then that my desire to understand human behaviour was enriched by studying Psychology at university.  After graduating, I spent many years working within the public health sector, with vulnerable adults and children, including Social Services, Adult Psychiatric Care, Special Educational Needs Schools, and Public Protection and Housing.

​

I am now an Integrative and Relational Counselling Therapist.  I help people to explore their own stories and understand the relationships that they have both with themselves and others, and create a life that feels uniquely authentic for them.

​

I live in the rural Mendip Hills, Somerset, and when I'm not working I like to spend much of my time with my nose in a book in front of the fire, roaming the countryside with my dog, who is often not by my side, or with a paintbrush in my hand, a blank canvas in front of me and music playing as loudly as possible in the background. 


I also have a slightly unhealthy addiction to dating shows, which I justify as human behaviour research.

​

I look forward to meeting you and hearing your story.
