Who I am
Hello, I’m Grace
I’m really glad you’ve found your way here. Whether you’re considering therapy for the first time or returning after a break, I hope this page gives you a sense of who I am and how I work.
My Background
I bring several years of experience across safeguarding, counselling and wellbeing services. Through all of this one thing has remained constant: the importance of empathy and trust. These are values I carry into every session.
Why I Do This Work
I came to therapy because I believe in the profound difference that feeling truly heard can make. So much of what holds us back like the patterns, the self-doubt, the weight of unspoken things, I believe they can all shift when we have the right space to explore it. That’s what I hope to offer you. This work matters deeply to me..
How I Work
My focus as a therapist is on helping people understand and change long-standing patterns in themselves and the relationships around them.
My hopes are for us to build a safe, respectful relationship where you can explore things at your own pace. I believe therapy works best as a collaborative process and my aim is always to help you understand yourself more deeply, develop meaningful coping strategies and create lasting change.
A Welcoming Space for Everyone
I am an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist and welcome clients of all sexual orientations and gender identities. I also welcome clients of all backgrounds, abilities, neurotypes and lived experiences. If you have any access needs or questions about how I can accommodate you (whether for face-to-face or online sessions) please don’t hesitate to ask.
A Note on My Training
I am currently in advanced clinical training as a UKCP-registered psychotherapist. This means I work under regular clinical supervision, in line with professional and ethical standards. I am fully insured and a registered member of the UKCP and the Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy.

I’m currently welcoming new enquiries for both face-to-face and online sessions.
