Identity

I can support you in exploring your identity and help you make sense of your experiences. Together, we can look at what it means to feel different, to struggle with feelings of not being good enough, or to navigate challenges
around self‑esteem, self‑worth, and purpose. I also work closely with those living with disabilities, offering space to understand lived experience without assumptions.

Young People

I support young people with anxiety and depression who may have had negative experiences such as educational trauma, bullying or identity confusion, which led to autistic burnout, self-harm or suicidal ideology.

Together, we will focus on understanding unmet or misunderstood needs and working through the impact of micro‑traumas. Many young people I work with struggle to trust adults in positions of authority, especially if they experience Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) or have struggled in mainstream settings. My approach centres on co‑regulation, offering space rather than expectations, and supporting autonomy, control, and independence.

A parent is welcome to attend the first session; I will work flexibly with you to ensure that everyone feels safe and supported.

Late-discovered or
diagnosed neurodiversity

I will work with you to explore your identity and make sense of your past through the lens of your neurodivergence.

Many people spend years in survival mode, feeling exhausted or stuck, so together we can look at unhelpful patterns and the impact of environments that create sensory distress, anxiety, and nervous‑system overwhelm.

I will support you in understanding how the mind and body hold pain, how micro-traumas, masking, and fawning shape daily life, and how these experiences influence relationships. Many people carry a deep sense of shame linked to how they are perceived by others, leading to over-adaptation, withdrawal, loneliness, and a loss of authentic connection. Our work focuses on gently untangling these experiences so you can move toward a more empowered and self‑affirming way of being.

Sight Loss

Living with sight loss can be a life-changing experience which often triggers grief, anxiety, and depression.

In our work together, we will explore those feelings of loss: either of independence, changes in relationships or
the sense of becoming a burden to others.  As an accredited sight loss counsellor, I understand the emotional impact of sight loss and am here to recognise and validate your individual experience.
