About Bareroots Holistic Counselling.

Over looking the tranquil waters of the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal, Bareroots offers a safe, confidential space to explore life's challenges and reconnect with your authentic self.
With over 20 years of experience, I bring a compassionate and professional approach to therapy grounded in both a level 7 postgraduate training in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy and Level 5 Person- Centred Counselling (Rogers).
At Bareroots I believe that healing is most effective when the whole person is supported - mind, body and spirit. My holistic approach weaves together traditional talking therapies with life coaching and complementary practises creating a unique and gentle therapeutic experience tailored to your individual needs.
Whether you're navigating anxiety, loss, life transitions or simply seeking greater clarity and self-understanding, I will offer you a peaceful, non-judgmental space to grow and heal.
Specialising in:
Depression: Anxiety: Addictions: Body Dismorphia: O.C.D. Low Self-Esteem. Relationship Problems. Stress. Trauma and major life changes.
I offer individual or couples appointments and remote, online counselling.

About me
I chose to become a counsellor in 2001 after experiencing a few difficult counselling sessions of my own while seeking help for postnatal depression. That experience left me convinced there must be a more supportive and effective way to help people heal.
I went on to study at Bath Spa University for four years, first in Person-Centred Therapy and then in Integrative Therapy. This combination has given me a broad and flexible approach, allowing me to tailor my work to each individual's needs.
After qualifying, I began working in schools supporting young people through a range of challenges. over time, my focus has shifted to working primarily with adults.
I believe that healing doesn't always mean revisiting the pain of the past. Sometimes it's about gently closing that door and learning to live fully in the present - finding peace, strength and balance in the here and now.
Remember, you've survived 100% of your hardest days so far - that's a perfect record and no small achievement.
