I help people to reclaim themselves by building healthy boundaries, processing difficult emotions, and developing practical coping skills. Through my writing, tools, and therapeutic work, I support individuals of all ages through challenges like low self-esteem, relationship issues, life transitions, and loss. My mission is to share the tools and insight you need to heal, grow, and thrive.

ABOUT ME

Registered Child, Adolescent, and Family Psychotherapist

I have worked with Children, Young People, and Families for over fifteen years practising as a qualified Social Worker, and in recent years, as a qualified Psychotherapist. I am registered with both Social Work England and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of Bedfordshire, and my post graduate degree from the University of Roehampton. I have a wealth of experience in working with those who are feeling overwhelmed with the pressures of life, repeating negative patterns, suffering from loss, and those who want to take charge of their lives and make changes to the way they think and relate to others. 

MY BOOK

I Know Why She Smiles

Daniella Kadene

Part memoir and part guide, ‘I Know Why She Smiles’, is an incredibly raw, brutally honest and ultimately inspiring account of a young womans’ determination to succeed in a world that tells her she no longer can. Guided by the single principle of helping other young women like her, she takes the reader through her own experiences, believing that in essence, it is the struggles that we face in life, that strengthens our wings to fly.

SERVICES


Therapy for under 25’s

Growing up today can feel like a lot. Between study, work, relationships, social media, and figuring out who you are, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or unsure of where to turn.

Therapy for under 25s is a safe to slow down and talk things through without judgement, pressure, or expectation. Together, we’ll explore whatever’s on your mind, whether that’s anxiety, low mood, self-esteem, identity, friendships, family, or simply managing the ups and downs of every day life.

This is your space to understand yourself better, build confidence, and learn tools to cope with whatever life brings.

You don’t have to have it all figured out. We’ll take it one step at a time.

 

Survivor Sessions (25+)

Survivor sessions are for adults who’ve faced, or are currently facing life’s tougher moments and are ready to heal, rebuild, and grow.

These sessions offer a grounded, empowering space for those navigating:

> Co-parenting after separation
> The impact of domestic abuse
> Relationship changes or loss
> Life transitions and new beginnings
> Anxiety or stress
> Healing from trauma
> Rebuilding self-esteem and self-trust

While these sessions are rooted in therapeutic practice, they’re less about traditional therapy and more about reclaiming your strength. We’ll work together at a pace that feels right for you, focusing on your story, your resilience, and the next steps forward.


This is a space to be heard, supported, and guided, not just to survive, but to start thriving again.


Book a session with me

The first step is to send me an email with a short message using the contact form or email. If you would like to arrange an initial chat, please suggest three dates and times that you are available to meet, and I will get in touch with you. During our first contact, we will talk about what difficulties you are experiencing, what you would like to achieve, and how I may support you. If you are happy for us to go ahead with future sessions, we’ll find a rhythm that works for you, whether that be weekly, fortnightly, or monthly sessions.

Initial chat (15 minutes) – £15
Online (under 25 or 25+) sessions (50 minutes) – £62
I offer a slightly discounted rate of £480 for those who wish to book eight bulk sessions

 

There is no ‘right or wrong’ length of time for therapy, so how many sessions you have with me may vary. Short term work usually lasts for about 8-12 sessions focusing on specific challenges that are causing the greatest amount of adveristy. Long term intervention allows you to take your time unpacking issues that may be deep rooted.

Every session is shaped around you, your experiences, goals, and pace. I offer a calm, non-judgemental environment where you can feel safe to talk openly and honestly.

Whether you’re a young person figuring things out, or an adult finding your way after life’s challenges, I’m here to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to yourself.
