Biography

MENTAL HEALTH, RELATIONSHIP & SEX THERAPY Qualified therapist (RegCOSRT, MNCPS (Acc.), MBACP) providing expert support for individuals, couples & partners facing intimacy & relationship challenges. Sessions in Cheshire (CW9) or online, with evening slots. Book a free 30-minute consultation today.

 

Life can be messy, complicated, and overwhelming. Whether you’re struggling with relationships, facing a personal crisis, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, counselling offers a safe space to explore, understand, and heal.

I work with individuals, couples, and multi-partnered relationships across a range of issues, including:

Desire discrepancy & low desire: Navigating mismatched sexual needs or changes in intimacy.
Relationship challenges: From communication breakdowns to rebuilding trust or redefining relationship structures.
Identity exploration: Understanding yourself, your values, your gender, sexuality, relationship preferences or your place in the world.
Anxiety, stress & low mood: Coping with the weight of daily life, work, or relationships.
Grief & loss: Finding your way through the pain of bereavement, separation, or major life changes.
Self-esteem & personal growth: Building a stronger relationship with yourself.

What makes my approach different?

I offer a supportive and non-judgmental space for all clients, drawing on contemporary theories and practices to provide therapy that is as unique as you are.

Flexible Sessions: Daytime and evening appointments are available, and there’s no requirement for weekly sessions.

In-Person and online: Meet me at my Cheshire practice or work with me online from anywhere in the UK.

Inclusive for all: I welcome people of all genders, sexualities, and relationship styles, including neurodivergent clients, those in LGBTQ+ or polyamorous relationships, and sex workers.

Whether you’re seeking help with a specific issue or exploring deeper questions about your life and relationships, I’ll meet you where you are and work alongside you towards meaningful change.

Type of Client

I welcome people of all genders, sexualities, and relationship styles, including neurodivergent clients, those in LGBTQ+ or polyamorous relationships, and sex workers.

Rates and Discounts

I charge £90 per hour, pro-rata for other appointment lengths. I don't increase my fees for couples or multi-partnered groups. Discounts are available for pre-paying for blocks of 4 or 6 hours. Your appointment is for the full 60 minutes, unlike many therapists who work with a 50-minute hour. This means that for every six sessions, you effectively receive an extra session compared to standard therapy models. 30, 60, 90 and 120 minute appointments available.
