Background
I worked for over ten years in Higher Education supporting students on their journeys through University life. I was drawn to working with mental health when I saw the complex challenges that some of these students were experiencing and knew that I wanted to use my passion for helping people in a really meaningful way. Since then I have worked with victims and survivors of physical, psychological and financial domestic abuse as well as as people who have experienced childhood trauma, sexual abuse, bereavement and relationship challenges.
Alongside my private practice I work at Sheffield Mind, a local mental health charity and Rotherham Abuse Counselling Service.

Starting your counselling journey can feel daunting and you may not know where to start; you are welcome to have a free, 15-minute, no obligation phone call to see if I am the right person for you to work with and we can take it from there at your pace. Your journey; your control.
