Separation and divorce can be one of the most emotionally overwhelming experiences in a person’s life. It can bring grief, fear, anger, loneliness, and uncertainty sometimes all at once. Whether you're managing co-parenting, rebuilding your identity, navigating financial stress, or feeling ungrounded in the transition, you don’t have to go through this alone.
I offer a safe, compassionate space to help you process your emotions, heal from past experiences, and regain clarity, confidence, and strength as you create a new chapter in your life.
Support Group for Divorced & Separated Women
In addition to individual therapy, you’re invited to join a closed support group for divorced and separated women - a warm, confidential space for connection, healing, and shared experiences.
Together, we explore resilience, boundaries, emotional stability, and rebuilding life after separation.
Group size is limited (8–10 women) to ensure safety and depth.
This is a space to feel seen, understood, and supported especially if you’ve felt alone in your journey.

Online in Sunderland, England
Sunderland is a city in the northeast of England with a proud history in shipbuilding and coal mining, and its post-industrial economic transformation has left significant deprivation in many communities, with mental health need among the highest in the country across a range of indicators. NHS mental health services are provided through Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust, one of England's largest mental health trusts, though demand consistently exceeds capacity. The University of Sunderland contributes to the local mental health workforce through its psychology and counselling programmes, and a private therapy sector exists alongside NHS provision. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, substance use, relationship difficulties, and the psychological effects of long-term unemployment and community decline that have affected many Wearside neighbourhoods.
