THERAPY
This is slow work. Honest work.
The kind that actually changes something.
We begin by paying attention to what you've been carrying for a long time without a space to be fully understood.
We will notice patterns in how you cope, relate, withdraw, or keep going. You will start realising what patterns have been shaping your experience for years.
Rather than trying to change these experiences immediately, we begin by staying with the patterns long enough to see their origin. We will then explore their usefulness now, and explore what might be more helpful ways of responding to life.
For many people, this includes anxiety, burnout, self-doubt, emotional overwhelm, neurodivergent ways of experiencing the world, or a long-standing sense of being slightly out of step with themselves or others.
WHAT THIS WORK IS
01
SLOWING DOWN
We begin by slowing things down enough to notice what has been happening beneath the surface.
02
FULLY PRESENT
You’ll be met here.
Whatever arrives in the room - nervousness, a sudden laugh, something unexpected - we don’t move past it straight away.
We stay with it.
We listen to what it’s like, and what it might be communicating.
03
DEPTH & SOMATIC
Sometimes what you’re carrying lives in your shoulders, your chest, your stomach. In the places that tighten or go numb before you’ve even had words for what you’re feeling.
We begin to notice that together.
Noticing how your body responds in certain moments often reveals something that thinking alone cannot quite reach.
Over time, this can bring a different kind of understanding. One that is felt as well as thought.
WHAT MAKES THIS WORK DISTINCTIVE
Most therapy happens through what you talk about.
Here, what happens between us matters just as much.
The patterns you carry into your life - the ways you connect, withdraw, seek reassurance, or go quiet - they'll find their way into the room too. When that happens, we don’t move past it. We stay with it, even when it’s uncomfortable. That's where something real can shift.
This isn't about polishing yourself up. It's about coming to know yourself, and maybe, slowly, learning to love what you find.

FAQs
1. Do you offer online sessions?
Yes. I work with people in person in Cheltenham and online, and many people move between the two depending on the week.
2. How much does a session cost, and how long does it run?
Sessions are £90 and run for 50 minutes, on a weekly basis.
3. Do you accept health insurance?
Yes, major providers are accepted.
4. What happens in the free intro call? It's a 20 minute conversation so we can get a sense of each other before deciding whether to work together. There's no pressure either way.
5. Is this therapy, or something more like coaching? It's therapy. The work is patient and relational, and it goes deeper than managing symptoms or reaching a specific goal.
6. What if I don't know exactly what I want to work on?
That's a common starting point. Much of the work is about slowing down enough to notice what's actually there, so you don't need a clear answer before we begin.
