My journey into counselling started with loss. When I lost my sister suddenly, my whole world changed overnight. During my own grief, sitting in the client chair, I became aware of what it truly means to feel vulnerable, and how much it matters to genuinely feel heard.

​

This experience was the final push that inspired me to become a counsellor. I haven’t lived a perfect life, I've experienced loss, faced challenges and done the hard work of healing, and continue to grow.

I am ADHD and Autistic. I understand the need to adapt and think in different ways as we all experience the world uniquely. I understand how it can feel to be misunderstood, and I work to create a space where you don’t need to mask who you are.

​

Outside of work I'm a wife and a mum of 4 neurodivergent children. My life is loud, busy, honest and full of love. In my free time (when I can find it) I like to get out camping, out on my bike or just rotting on the sofa with junk food and Netflix. I'm also spiritual and like to look for the quiet moments of meaning that can emerge even in the hardest of seasons.

Redwood Embers reflects who I am: grounded, genuine and compassionate. No perfection. No pretending. Just a safe space where you can show up exactly as you are, and where healing can begin at your own pace.
