I'm a Creative Counsellor, mum, grandma, published author, podcaster and amateur dramatics enthusiast.

Creativity isn't just something I use in my work, it's part of who I am.

Growing up, I often felt unheard, and I know how much difference it can make when someone really listens. That experience has shaped the counsellor I am today.

I've been described as quietly ferocious and professionally playful. I care deeply about the people I work with and believe that compassion, curiosity and creativity can open conversations that words alone sometimes can't.

I don't believe you need fixing.

Whether I'm supporting a child, a teenager or an adult, my role isn't to tell you what to do. It's to walk alongside you as you make sense of your experiences, discover your strengths and find your own way forward.

There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. Some people want to talk. Others connect through creativity, movement, nature or simply sharing space together. We'll find what works for you.

My counselling is also shaped by more than 25 years of working in supportive roles with children, young people, adults and families.

Every experience has reinforced my belief that change happens through connection, not perfection.

I hope the people I work with leave feeling lighter, more connected to themselves and knowing they don't have to face life's challenges alone.

And if we can share a little laughter along the way, even better.
