Therapy shaped around presence, trust, and collaboration.

How I work

Therapy is not something I do to you, nor is it about fixing or reshaping who you are.
It is a shared process - one that unfolds through relationship, trust, and careful attention to what you bring.

My way of working is grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens when you feel safe enough to speak freely, at a pace that feels manageable for you.

There is no expectation to arrive with the “right” words, a clear story, or a defined goal.

We begin wherever you are.

I work relationally and in a trauma-informed way, which means that consent, collaboration, and attunement are central. We will move slowly where that feels important, and gently explore patterns, feelings, and experiences as they emerge.
You remain in control of what we talk about and how deeply we go.

Whether we meet online or in my counselling space in Norwich, our work together is grounded in the same care, attention, and relational presence

What you can expect

Therapy with me is not about rushing towards solutions. It is about making sense of your experience - how you relate to yourself, to others, and to the world around you. Sometimes that involves reflecting on the present moment; at other times, it may include looking at past experiences and how they continue to shape you now.

I pay close attention to the therapeutic relationship itself, because how we work together matters. I aim to offer a steady, respectful presence - one where you do not need to minimise, justify, or translate yourself in order to be understood.

This is a space that welcomes difference and lived experience in all its forms. I seek to work in ways that are inclusive and affirming of neurodiversity, cultural identity, sexuality, gender, and the complex intersections that shape our lives.

Whether you come to therapy with a specific difficulty, a sense of feeling stuck, or simply a need for space to pause and reflect, my intention is to offer a thoughtful and compassionate environment in which that work can take place.

We work at your pace, and we will regularly check in about how the sessions feel for you. This helps ensure that our work together continues to feel helpful, relevant, and responsive to what you need.

You don’t need to be certain - we can begin with a conversation.
