Get to Know Me

Helping You Live Your Best Life !

I am passionate about helping my clients break through the obstacles that seem to be holding them back in life. Life's too short to be unhappy, unsure, or unfulfilled. I am here to help you achieve a more positive outlook on life, and provide you with some of the tools necessary to help get you there.

I aim to provide a really client centred service, meaning I am able to adapt my Counselling style to suit your needs. This can include a combination of talking therapy, art therapy, mindfulness and imagery work, whatever you feel the most comfortable with. I am able to provide face to face, telephone or video counselling. As I am passionate about the the effect of nature on our mental wellbeing, I also offer a Walk and Talk service for those local to the Cheltenham area.

I am a single Mum to two beautiful girls and I have been both a parent, a carer to my elderly Mum and a career women. I have supported those with mental health

issues, parenting concerns, relationship worries and teenage angst. But most of all - I am human, and as a human being, what I value most is 'connection', finding that person you connect with makes all the difference to your counselling journey. Take the first step and give me a call or message me, I look forward to hearing from you.
