When life feels heavier than it should, you don't have to carry it alone
Perhaps you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed or emotionally exhausted. Maybe you've lost confidence in yourself, find it hard to switch your thoughts off, or keep getting caught in the same relationship patterns.
Whatever has brought you here, we'll take the time to understand what's been happening, make sense of the patterns that keep repeating, and discover a way forward that feels right for you.

Hi,
I'm Angela
Even if you feel broken, out of hope, uncertain - or however else it is for you. I have a real knack for seeing your strength and resilience and helping you see it too.
The ways you cope - overthinking, people-pleasing, shutting down or always being the strong one - usually make sense when we understand what you've lived through.
I’m interested in getting to know you, how you tick and how you think, not just the problem that brought you here.
Does any of this sound familiar ?
Perhaps you're the one everyone turns to, but you're quietly running on empty yourself.
Maybe you overthink conversations long after they've ended, second-guess your decisions, or find yourself worrying about things you can't control.
From the outside, your life might look perfectly fine, yet inside you're exhausted from trying to hold everything together.
You might be grieving or questioning a relationship, feeling caught in difficult family or friendship dynamics, questioning your place in the world, or simply wondering why life feels harder than it used to.
Or perhaps you want life to feel more alive again.
If you're nodding along, you're not alone.
People come to see me for different reasons, including:
Although everyone's story is different, many of these struggles have something in common. They're often rooted in patterns, beliefs, and ways of coping that once made sense but may no longer be serving you today.

Taking the first step
Reaching out for support can feel like a big step.
You don't need to know exactly what you want to say, and you certainly don't need to have everything worked out.
I offer a free 30-minute introductory conversation, either online via Zoom or in my calm, spacious therapy room in Chorlton. It's simply an opportunity to meet, talk about what's bringing you to therapy, and see whether working together feels like the right fit.
If something you've read has resonated with you, I'd love to hear from you.
