Hi, I’m Marilyn—a qualified and compassionate therapist who seeks to support those who often feel unseen.

I work with adults aged 18+ through a range of emotional challenges, including anxiety, trauma, identity struggles, and difficult life transitions. Many of my clients come from complex backgrounds, and I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore the weight you’ve been carrying—whether it’s rooted in past relationships, cultural expectations, faith journeys, or painful experiences.

My path into counselling was shaped by my own seasons of feeling unsupported, which gave me a deep understanding of what it means to feel overlooked or misunderstood. I bring that same empathy and care into the space I hold for others.

As an integrative therapist with a psychodynamic foundation, I work with you to explore how past experiences may be influencing your present, helping you gently untangle patterns that no longer serve you. My approach is grounded in compassion, dignity, and respect—faith and spirituality are explored only if they are meaningful to you.

I offer a free 20-minute consultation to see whether working together feels like the right fit, and I aim to respond to all enquiries within 72 hours. You don’t need to have it all together to begin—therapy is a space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported.

I have experience providing counselling in different organisations, including work with adults living with personality disorders, supporting survivors of domestic abuse, and offering pastoral care within community settings.

I carry professional indemnity insurance and hold an enhanced DBS check.
