Where your feelings matter, your story is heard and relationships flourish
Trauma Informed, Neuro-Affirming Relationship Counselling
Are you neurodivergent or a parent or partner to someone who is?
When neurodivergence is in the mix and relationships feel harder than you expected, it can be confusing. It might feel like you're speaking different languages or that you can't ask for what you need.
You might wonder if you're expecting too much or if you're the problem.
Loving someone doesn’t need to mean taking up less space. I can help you find the balance between respecting differences and your own needs.
Neuro-affirming, Trauma Informed, Compassionate Counselling
Trauma, neurodivergence and needing help don’t make you broken or worth less than someone else.
Affirming counselling isn’t about fixing ‘deficits’. You deserve unconditional love and acceptance for who you are.
We’ll highlight and work with your strengths, because who you are deserves to be seen, loved and respected.
Come exactly as you are, there is no need to have all the answers right now.
We’ll start where you are and figure it out together as we go.
Asking for help can be scary and takes courage. When you’re ready, I’d love to hear from you.
Working With Your Body and Emotions
Sometimes it can feel like your body and your voice react before your mind has a chance to catch up. Emotions can feel overwhelming, leaving you stuck or reacting in ways that don’t feel like you.
Together, we’ll gently get to know what’s going on for you, so you can begin to respond to yourself and others with more understanding, steadiness and choice.
Share Your Story and Make Change
Counselling is a place to tell your story, to make sense of how your experiences and relationships shaped who you are.
When we understand where we are now, we can create lasting change to:
- Feel safe, respected and worthy in relationships
- Build confidence and boost self-esteem
- Communicate healthily and resolve conflict
- Set boundaries that protect your worth
- Regulate big feelings with compassion

My therapy room is in central Godalming. You’ll find it just off the High Street, down a short cobbled path. It’s tucked away from the bustle, offering a quiet and private space for counselling.
If you’re driving, you can park for free in Sainsbury’s (for up to 2 hours) or Waitrose (for up to 90 minutes). It’s also just a short walk from local car parks, including Crown Court Car Park, Queen Street Car Park, and Waverley Council Office Car Park.
I have use of two therapy rooms, both are on the first floor and accessed by stairs. When you arrive, there’s a small waiting area, and usually someone at the front desk who are happy to help if you need anything before your session. If you need ground floor access this can be arranged too.
Once we’ve got your session booked in, payment is requested at booking and can be made by bank transfer. For in person sessions I can accept cash payments if preferred. Invoices can be arranged upon request.
Once your appointment is booked, you’ll receive an email with all the details, including a secure Zoom link to join your session.
On the day, simply click the link a few minutes before your appointment to join our virtual waiting room.
Individual sessions last 50 minutes and couples sessions are either 60 or 90 minutes. They usually take place on a weekly basis at the same time each week, just like in-person counselling.
Online counselling offers a convenient and comfortable way to receive support from home or anywhere you feel safe.
Yes. Confidentiality is a core part of counselling. Everything you share during our sessions is held in strict confidence, within the limits of the law and ethical guidelines.
I adhere to professional standards set by counselling bodies to keep your information safe and secure. This includes secure storage of records and private, confidential sessions whether in person or online.
The only times confidentiality may be broken are in situations where there is a risk of harm to you or others, or when legally required. If we do identify a risk, where possible we'll work together to decide how best to manage it. This will usually be by deciding what other service we might need to support us.
If you have any questions or concerns about confidentiality, please feel free to ask.
If you're seeking counselling outside of working hours, I offer early sessions at 7am as well as Sundays mornings. My availability changes often, get in touch to find out what spaces are free and to find a time that works for you.
The number of counselling sessions you’ll need depends entirely on you and your unique situation. Everyone’s journey is different, so it’s hard to say an exact number upfront.
Throughout our work together, we’ll regularly reflect on your progress and how things are going, adjusting the pace as needed to support your goals.
Ultimately, you’re in charge of your counselling journey, you can stay for as long or as little as feels right for you.
At times I can offer a reduced fee for online counselling sessions. Unfortunately I'm not able to offer in person sessions at a reduced rate.
I have found that fortnightly sessions are most effective once we've been able to establish our relationship, I ask that we meet weekly for the first 6 sessions before reducing to fortnightly.
