She also works with trauma and abuse, panic attacks, compassion fatigue and problems with self-esteem, guilt or shame. Her background includes work in different clinical settings and with people at varying stages of emotional difficulty.
She describes herself as calm, patient and attentive to detail. In sessions she listens with empathy and helps people plan achievable steps. Progress is tracked through regular meetings and by reviewing goals together.

How her approaches translate to remote work
Client-Centred Therapy places the person and their priorities at the centre of each session. It involves open listening and reflecting back what matters to the person, which helps clarify goals and next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and can be useful for anxiety, panic attacks, low mood and sleep problems.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss what feels most useful and try different methods to see what helps. Decisions are collaborative and based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences rather than a fixed plan.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow more flexible scheduling around work or family commitments. It can also mean shorter check-ins when someone needs a brief follow-up rather than a full session.
