Welcome, I'm Rose. Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting — but you don’t have to do it alone. If you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck in low mood, or simply not like yourself, I’m here to help. 

I offer a warm, down-to-earth space where you can pause, breathe, and begin to make sense of whatever you’re going through. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges or struggling with self-esteem, I will walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity and care. I work integratively, with a foundation in person-centred therapy, adapting our sessions to meet your unique needs.

I’m passionate about supporting those facing emotional challenges during menopause, including anxiety, low mood, identity shifts, and sleep issues. I also help with general anxiety disorders, grief, survivors of abuse, low self-esteem, performance anxiety, negative thinking, depression, relationship and trust issues.

Whether you choose in-person or online counselling, you don’t have to face things alone. I offer a warm, understanding space where you can feel truly heard. Together, we’ll gently explore what’s troubling you and work towards healing, hope and growth. If you’re ready to talk, I’m here to listen. Book a free, informal chat today.

As a committed practitioner, I am constantly increasing my knowledge and continuing professional development with specialist training, most recently in anxiety and stress, grief and loss, shame and guilt and  specialist menopause counselling support.  I also offer Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), offering short-term support focusing on specific problems and working collaboratively with clients within a person-centred approach.

I work with adults (18 years and over)  and elders and can support them in many areas, including:

• Anxiety, stress, depression and low moods
• The menopause transition (peri menopause through to post menopause)
• Emotional support
• Bereavement
• Grief, loss and sadness
• Miscarriage
• Survivors of abuse
• Work-related stress and issues
• Confidence and self-esteem
• Carer support
• Relationship breakdowns and issues (individuals)
• Performance anxiety (focus on a specific problem e.g. stage fright, public speaking, exams etc)
