Vicky is experienced in working with anxiety, difficult life events, neurodivergence, the challenges of parenting and how to connect with young people who can be hard to reach and engage.

Despite working with all ages, something that's important to us is raising awareness that our current education system is definitely not designed to suit everyone.

If you're struggling in the education system or you experienced upsetting and difficult events in school when you were younger, we strongly empathise and recognise the psychological impact of this.

Vicky works compassionately through a trauma and neuro informed lens.

"Out of your vulnerabilities, will come your strengths."

"I am not what happened to me, but what I choose to become."

"From therapy, I see myself in the mirror differently."
