About me
Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like you’ve lost your way? Maybe your emotions feel hard to manage, or you find yourself reacting in ways you can’t quite explain. You might feel constantly on edge, disconnected from yourself or others, or stuck in patterns that leave you feeling drained and unsure how to move forward. You’re not alone - and you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself Understanding What’s Going On Beneath the Surface These experiences often trace back to difficult life events or trauma. Trauma isn’t just about what happened - it’s about how those experiences still live in your body and mind, shaping how you think, feel, and relate to the world around you. It can leave lasting marks on your emotional, physical, and mental well-being. But with the right support, healing and reconnection are possible. You can find your way back to feeling more grounded, connected, and at ease. A Down-to-Earth Approach to Therapy I know that starting therapy can feel daunting - especially if talking about emotions doesn’t come naturally. My approach is down-to-earth, compassionate, and tailored to suit you. Therapy doesn’t have to take place in a room or always follow a rigid format. Alongside online sessions, I offer something a little different... 🌿 Walk & Talk Therapy in Nature Spending time outdoors can help ease anxiety, unlock thoughts and feelings, and give therapy a more natural rhythm. Whether in Cumbria or the Yorkshire Dales, we walk at your pace, letting the landscape support our conversation. I offer: 👉 Regular 60 or 90 minute sessions 👉 Extended half-day or full-day sessions. These longer sessions allow for deeper reflection, without the time pressure of a traditional one-hour slot. Many people find they make meaningful progress during a day or weekend of focused, nature-based therapy - sometimes more than they expected. 🌍 Online & Remote Walk & Talk Therapy If you can't meet in person, I also offer: 👉 Zoom sessions from the comfort of your home 👉 Remote Walk & Talk Therapy, where we each walk in our own local areas while connecting over audio or video call 🤝 What It’s Like to Work Together Together, we’ll explore what’s going on in a way that feels supportive, steady, and respectful of your pace. There’s no pressure to “fix” everything - just space to be real, reflect, and start reconnecting with what matters most to you. 💬 Curious but Unsure? Let’s Talk. If any of this resonates, feel free to reach out. You don’t need to have all the answers - just a willingness to take that first step. I offer a free 30 minute call to see if we’re a good fit and talk through any questions you might have.
