finding life tough but not sure where to turn?

Maybe you’ve been powering through, keeping busy, putting on a brave face. But underneath it all, things just don’t feel right. You might feel constantly on edge, flat, angry, or numb. Maybe you're stuck in patterns that aren't working anymore - like shutting down; pushing people away or turning to things that help you cope in the moment, but leave you feeling worse in the long-term.
 

If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone. These feelings may be the result of the build-up of stress and pressure over time but they may link back to unprocessed trauma or difficult early life-experiences. While addiction, burnout, or emotional shutdown can feel like personal failure; they're often the body's way of trying to survive pain that's never been given space.

I specialise in working with those who want to understand what’s really going on underneath the surface - people who are ready to stop white-knuckling life, want to stand tall and start living more connected, meaningful lives.

a down to earth approach to
therapy & support

Starting therapy can feel daunting - especially when talking about emotions isn't second nature. My approach is straightforward, compassionate, and flexible. Therapy doesn’t have to happen in a room or follow a rigid format. It’s about having space to explore, reflect, and decide what you want to change - without judgement or pressure.

🌿 Walk & Talk Therapy

Step outside and let nature set the pace. Whether in Cumbria or the Yorkshire Dales, Walk & Talk Therapy creates a natural rhythm that helps ease anxiety, unlock thoughts, and make space for reflection.

The choice is yours:

  • 60 or 90-minute sessions

  • Half-day or full-day sessions for deeper exploration away from the noise.

Clients find this time in nature brings clarity and progress in ways they didn't expect.

🌍 Online & Remote Walk & Talk Therapy​

​If we can’t meet in person, we can still connect:

  • Zoom sessions from the comfort of your home

  • Remote Walk & Talk Therapy, where we both walk in our own local areas, connected over audio or video call
