About Stour Valley Therapy

---

The aim of psychotherapy is to help you make sense of your experiences, gain insight into patterns that may be holding you back, and learn practical strategies to manage stress, improve relationships, and enhance your overall emotional wellbeing.

Sessions typically involve conversation, reflection, and guidance tailored specifically to your needs and goals. Psychotherapy can help with issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship conflicts, or simply feeling stuck in life.

Above all, psychotherapy is about empowering you to live a more fulfilling, balanced, and meaningful life.

sessions are typically once or twice weekly

Counselling is your space—a safe, confidential place to talk openly about whatever’s on your mind. Whether you’re feeling anxious, stressed, low, stuck, or struggling in relationships, I’m here to listen without judgement and help you make sense of things.

My style is gentle, supportive, and tailored to you. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on, build understanding, and find practical ways forward, so you feel clearer, more confident, and more in control of your life.

sessions are typically weekly and can be short or long term. 

I’m a counsellor and psychotherapist with a strong background in psychology and forensic mental health. My doctoral training has equipped me to support you through life’s challenges—whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, or simply feeling stuck.

Drawing from my experience in psychology and forensic settings, I offer a compassionate, confidential space to safely explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. My approach integrates counselling and psychotherapy, helping you gain deeper insight, break old patterns, and develop practical strategies for positive change.

Together, we’ll gently unpack what you’re going through, empowering you to feel clearer, stronger, and more connected to yourself and others.
