Couples therapy in Ashford, Kent. Professional relationship counselling to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen your relationship.

I was honoured to be invited by Jo Adams and Sam Griffiths to speak at Thriving in Ashford for World Menopause Day. I shared my insights on menopause and mental health, exploring how therapy can help women feel supported, understood, and empowered to thrive through change.

What does it mean to embrace change both personally and professionally? From balancing a busy counselling practice with caring for my own wellbeing, to stepping into new training in relationship and couples therapy, this post is about the courage it takes to grow, even when it feels uncomfortable. It’s a reminder that positive change can be both scary and empowering and that sometimes, the biggest step forward begins with getting out of your own way.
