Person-Centred Therapy is a non-directive, empathetic talking therapy that gives you space to explore your thoughts and feelings in a safe, neutral, and confidential environment. You are not told what to do or judged for what you share.
Instead, you are supported with warmth, acceptance, and genuine understanding so that you can explore your difficulties at your own pace. Together, we create the conditions that help you feel heard and valued.
This therapy is based on the belief that you already have the capacity to grow, heal, and move toward your potential. With the right support, you can develop a deeper understanding of yourself and find solutions that feel authentic and lasting.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Practical tools for lasting change.
CBT is a structured, goal-oriented treatment that helps you manage anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and OCD. Together, we explore how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are connected — identifying unhelpful patterns and developing practical strategies to respond in healthier, more balanced ways.
CBT is active and collaborative, giving you tools to regulate emotions, manage anxiety, and build stronger coping skills. The focus isn’t just on feeling better in the moment — it’s on building lasting skills that support your long-term recovery and well-being.

Young people
The leading evidence-based treatment for adolescent eating disorders, FBT actively involves your family in the recovery process. Through a structured, phased approach, you are supported in helping your child restore weight and improve nutritional health, while gradually rebuilding their autonomy and independence.
Together, you’ll also address the underlying factors contributing to the illness. Unlike traditional family therapy, FBT does not place blame on you or your family — instead, it empowers you as an essential part of your child’s recovery and healing.

Trauma therapy (CBT)
Processing trauma at a pace that feels safe.
Trauma-informed CBT supports you in processing traumatic experiences, whether you need short-term focused work or longer-term therapeutic support. The work is carefully paced and may include:
- Understanding trauma and how it affects the brain and nervous system
- Building emotional regulation and grounding skills
- Working with re-experiencing and intrusive symptoms
- Addressing heightened arousal and hyper-vigilance
- Exploring negative thinking patterns
- Gently reducing avoidance behaviours

If you are autistic, ADHD, or identify as otherwise neurodivergent, therapy with me is adapted to suit you. This might mean adjusting the pace of sessions, being more structured and goal-focused, incorporating visual or written supports, reducing sensory overwhelm, or being flexible with communication styles.
You won’t be expected to fit into a rigid therapeutic model — we shape the work around how you think, feel, and function best. I also understand how often neurodivergent individuals have experienced masking, burnout, shame, or feeling misunderstood. Therapy becomes a space where you can unmask safely, build self-understanding, and develop strategies that genuinely work for your brain.
Taking the first step takes courage.
I offer a free introductory call — a gentle, no-obligation conversation to see if we might be a good fit.
