  • Specialist in: Anxiety, Bereavement/loss, Depression, Family, Neurodivergence, Relationships, Trauma
Online Only
  • Person-Centred counsellor/therapist
  • Duration
    Sessions are 50 minutes and completely led by you; this is your time to slow down, reflect, and explore what feels important.

If you’ve made it this far and found yourself reading my advert, I’m going to gently guess that something inside you is saying, “something needs to change".

I want to acknowledge just how hard this part can be - the scrolling, the searching, the overwhelm of trying to find a therapist who just gets it.

If you’ve stayed with me this far, I’ve got a feeling we might get along.

Hi, I’m Grace.

Person-centred Counsellor and Psychotherapist, and someone who understands what it’s like to carry heavy experiences and knows what it’s like to choose healing and growth.

I’m a late-diagnosed autistic and ADHD cis woman in my (almost late) 20s, and I know first-hand how powerful (and messy, and beautiful) the work of unlearning can be.

I work with adults navigating all kinds of life experiences - whether it’s stress, anxiety, burnout, feeling overwhelmed or stuck, or simply wondering: “Why do I feel like this?”

Sometimes the weight we carry is loud and obvious, other times it hides in the background - in our habits, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or fear of letting others down.

Together, in therapy, we will gently explore what’s been shaping your inner world - from old expectations you’ve outgrown, to patterns that no longer serve you.

In therapy, I’ll walk alongside you as you reconnect with your resilience, soften into your truth, and start embracing your inner magic - the parts of you that were never gone, just tucked away, quietly waiting to be found.

If you’re ready to begin untangling what’s been weighing you down, and feel more like you, I’d love to hear from you.

  • Areas of practice

    My own path into becoming a counsellor wasn’t a straightforward one. Like many others, I followed the expected route - heading to university straight after college because it felt like what I was “supposed” to do. I moved far from home and soon realised it wasn’t right for me, leaving by Christmas and spending the next few years working in hospitality, retail, property, and sales.

    Although those roles gave me valuable life experience and people skills, something still felt missing. I decided to explore counselling by completing a Level 2 Certificate in Counselling Skills, and that’s where I re-discovered my passion. From there, I returned to study, completing a BSc (Hons) in Psychology with Counselling with The Open University, which allowed me to balance real life, work, and study.

    I then went on to gain a MSc in Counselling and Psychotherapy from Keele University, during which I worked across a variety of placements, supporting adults through charities, GP surgeries (within the NHS), and remote settings. Since qualifying, I’ve also gained experience counselling children and young people in both school and community settings, and I’ve completed a Diploma in Counselling Children and Young People to deepen this work.

    Alongside my private practice, I work as a Lecturer in Counselling at Birmingham City University, and I’m a registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Continuing professional development is very important to me; I regularly attend workshops, conferences, and online training to keep learning and refining my practice.

    All of these experiences (the academic, the professional, and the deeply personal) shape the therapist I am today. In my private practice, I work with adults, drawing on my varied background to offer a grounded, flexible, and empathetic approach. Having worked with such a wide range of people and settings, I understand how life’s early pressures, expectations, and experiences can shape who we become.

    I’m passionate about helping clients reconnect with themselves, find clarity, and build a stronger sense of self. My approach is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and genuine respect for your unique journey and creating a space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and supported.
