Holistic practitioner, coach and integrative counsellor

I have over twenty-five years of experience in supporting individuals to treat stress-induced illnesses and conditions, hormonal imbalances to anxiety, depression, trauma and chronic conditions. Driven by my own lived experience of these stressors which affect our body, thoughts, feelings, and behaviour, I am passionate about helping and educating others with these types of symptoms.

As an Integrative Counsellor, I use an individualised holistic approach tailored to your needs. I am qualified in EMDR, EFT and psychotherapy, wellbeing coaching, hypnotherapy, yoga teaching and reiki as well as trauma-based somatic practices and draw on a selection of therapy models to provide you with the best care.

Together, in a confidential, non-judgmental, and safe environment, we will uncover the root of your issues, we will look at soothing and finding balance within an overactive, underactive or unregulated nervous system. We will look at the accelerator of your ‘fight or flight’ parasympathetic nervous system, and the ‘brake’ of rest and digest of your sympathetic nervous system, as well as your gut or second brain of the enteric nervous system to find and create an inner balance, calm, resilience and vagal tone.

Our bodily systems are complex and hugely interlinked, the body wishes to create homeostasis or balance

Our bodily systems are complex and hugely interlinked, the body wishes to create homeostasis or balance. Historically, the Western allopathic medical profession has tended to treat our physical symptoms in isolation, disconnected from our mental and emotional worlds. More research has emerged over recent years which challenges this approach.

Today, we have a fuller understanding of the ways our thoughts and emotions influence our physical symptoms, so we are better able to regulate our nervous system building resilience to deal with life stressors and leading to knowledge of how to create vagal tone and take some control back.

That’s why I use a holistic approach to treating stress-induced and hormonal-related issues (such as menopause and other women's health conditions). Treating symptoms alone might get us so far. But our symptoms are connected to so many aspects of ourselves and our lives.

Autism, ADHD and neurodiversity informed

I am experienced as a specialist in working with ADHD, Autism and Neurodiversity. I can help you with action-based strategies to help build emotional regulation, manage overwhelm and burnout, as well as support you with tailored strategies to help your specific needs.

Together, we build a collaborative process, where we explore your unique strengths and challenges, develop personalised strategies and create practical simple and effective tools.

“I wanted to take the time to let you know (that) the work you do is so important, thank you... There are so many people out there whose lives you're going to touch and change for the better!”

— R

“I suddenly discovered self confidence and courage...this shift is because of the work we've done together. It's truly life-changing...”

— G

“I started my therapy journey with Kim, as I was struggling with cripplingly low self-esteem and anxiety for several years. I had felt as though this was something I could not overcome, and it was negatively impacting my life and relationships. Working together has honestly been life changing. Through our sessions, we have analysed and dealt with past traumas, relationship dynamics and tackled changing the narrative when it comes to negative self-thoughts; ultimately helping me to be more compassionate to myself. I have taken back the power in my life and feel as though I can now finally start enjoying it - something I never thought I'd say!”

— Miss CW

“I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia just prior to the pandemic and found that I had many questions with very few answers as treatment is not particularly straightforward and is not a one-size-fits all approach. After several months, I found various therapies which worked well for me but there still seemed to be a piece missing from the jigsaw...”

As I had worked with Kim in the past she was the first person whose name popped into my head as I knew Kim would either be able to help or she would know somebody who could. After an initial discussion, it transpired that Kim has a wealth of knowledge and experience in the areas of fibromyalgia and CFS which I was so pleased about as she is the most kind, caring and compassionate person I have ever worked with and I knew I could improve further with Kim’s help. From that point on, I worked with Kim virtually on a regular basis to address my unresolved health issues. This included learning how to put myself first and to tackle some issues in my life which I had buried deeply many years ago. Kim made me realise that in order to feel better, I had to address all areas of my life and to find the right coping strategies for me, which I did with Kim right by my side supporting me all the way. I can honestly say with hand on heart that if I hadn’t had Kim to help and guide me, I would still be struggling. I cannot thank Kim enough for all the help and support she has given me.”

— Miss SS

“Kim has been an incredible source of support for me over the years. Her vast knowledge, experience, and guidance have helped me navigate some truly challenging times. Finding Kim was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”

— OS

“Kim is amazing at her job! She creates a non-judgemental, safe space where I feel at ease and comfortable opening up about my feelings. I love that Kim incorporates different therapy techniques in her sessions - I find this really effective in helping me in different ways and areas of my life. Ultimately, Kim makes me feel listened to and provides compassionate and practical support. I’m so pleased to have found her and I look forward to the progress I’m going to make with her!”

— CN

“I cannot thank Kim enough for how much she has helped me transform my mental health. When I first came to her, I was in a total spiral, unable to recognise myself due to my anxiety. With her well-informed methods and comforting support, I felt seen, understood and safe when it mattered most. She enlightened me on how to understand, accept and regulate my emotions from a holistic perspective by helping me grasp the connections and inner workings of my nervous system. I am truly amazed by the progress I have made through our sessions; Kim has helped me return to myself and rediscover the joys of life. Now, I feel secure, equipped with her readily available support and well-researched tools to sustain my mental and physical health, relationships, work, and overall stability. I would wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking meaningful and lasting change in their well-being.”

— MH

“I cannot thank you enough for the progress I've made due to your sessions. I read back through my journal, from the entries when we first started meeting to now, and it really is amazing and heartwarming seeing everything that you've taught me and that have now become my second nature. By using the tools you've given me so far I haven't found myself in need of booking a session recently, but knowing you're there if anything does arise is such a great comfort to me.”

— A happy client

“I sought support from Kim at a time in my life when I was running on empty and feeling depleted of joy. After just one session together I felt a shift in my outlook and a lightness of heart. She is full of warmth and kindness as well as being professional and insightful.”

— RP

“I first got in touch with Kim during a tricky time in my life- I was putting myself under immense pressure work wise and couldn’t see much light at the end of the tunnel. Kim worked with me through the problems, with a perfect mix of gentleness and steadfastness. I have since worked with Kim through relationship issues. This has helped me build tools which I still use for navigating life’s hard times, as well as an ability to trust my own instinct. Thank you Kim.”

— NW

“Kim is a lifeline. She has an amazing understanding and insight into deep, long-term issues. She knows when and how to apply her extensive knowledge and experience. Kim uses her compassion, kindness and humour to support me whilst providing wide ranging, life changing support, one manageable step at a time.”

— CC

“Kim exudes warmth, compassion and a sense of humour, all of which make her an exceptionally gifted therapist. She is very holistic and client-centred, always checking in to ensure that the work we are doing together meets my needs and goals. With Kim's support I am finally recovering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome after years of being stuck. I am now in a position to turn my life around and experience true joy again.”

— GR

“The work we've done together has been so helpful... life changing in fact, thank you!”

— A happy client

“I first came to Kim in 2017 with severe anxiety and panic attacks, I couldn’t stay at home alone out of the fear of having an attack on my own and it started to affect my work. As soon as I met Kim, she made me feel so at ease and let me talk while she listened. We firstly set goals for me to work towards and then we moved on to have hypnotherapy and reiki. After a few months of sessions my anxiety and panic reduced drastically, and I was able to carry on my work life and home life as normal. I always recommend hypnotherapy and reiki to those I meet with similar fears to mine. It REALLY worked for me. I am now married and due to have my first baby soon. Art of Wellbeing seriously changed my life.”

— A happy client

“Kim’s warmth made it easy to connect and work with her. Although I had done a lot of work on myself alone, having Kim’s support to nudge me forward in overcoming my pain and confidence was so beneficial. she gently pointed out parts of me that needed to be challenged and encouraged me to use skills to focus on. I reached all the goals I set which has opened my life.”

— SO

“Kim is truly a one-in-a-million human being. This makes her one of the most compassionate healers I know. Kim creates a safe space, where there is no judgement or preconceptions. It is a space where you can bare your soul, have ugly cries, runny nose and all, where you can live your pain, exorcise your demons or learn to live with them. It is also a space where you can heal and laugh and forge a new way forward to a place where you feel whole. Kim helped me to do this, and I will forever be thankful to her for helping me on this journey - she showed me great kindness and care, helping me to make the changes I needed to make. She is compassionate and warm, knowledgeable and full of wisdom, empathic and a genuine, all-encompassing amazing therapist! She is a blessing!”

— SB

“Covid, lockdown and isolation caused me great anxiety especially when life began to return to a sort of normality. I found it difficult to be amongst people or make decisions about what to do for the best. I started experiencing fibromyalgia symptoms such as muscular pain and fatigue making it difficult for me to move easily and function properly. I was relieved to work with Kim because I knew she had experienced chronic pain herself, and I also knew that she understood that stress can cause the body to have all sorts of symptoms...

We met via Zoom and this worked well. Kim helped me clarify my thoughts. She particularly helped me be confident when making decisions that were right for me. She challenged me, in a supportive way, when I started catastrophizing. She helped me feel more relaxed and calmer. She also provided supportive resources. Gradually the pain began to subside, and I am now pain-free. I can now recognise when I am getting anxious and take steps to calm myself. I am grateful to Kim for her help and support at a difficult time.”

— A happy client

“I started working with Kim over seven years ago now, initially for crippling anxiety. As the sessions continued and with Kim’s support, we got to the root cause which enabled me to understand and overcome my anxiety. She is not only extremely professional but patient, kind and compassionate. I recommended Kim to anyone in need (although I feel everyone can benefit from having Kim in their life!) It truly changed my life for the better and I can’t thank her enough.”

— AD

“When I first met with Kim I was not in a happy place and I needed help. Kim gave me a safe space to talk without judgement and really listened with empathy and compassion. Over time she helped me with strategies to help me make sense of my life. She enabled me to find the mental strength to reframe my perceptions of what happens to us all every day and deal with them without falling apart. I will be endlessly grateful to Kim for helping me to help myself and to develop the inner strength to cope and the peace that it then brings.”

— JLH

“Kim's approach to therapy is so much more positive than I have ever experienced before, she has a wonderful way of taking things that are troubling you and making you think about them in a fresh and positive way.”

— A happy client

“I really am a different person now from whom I was when I first started with Kim, and I have an abundance of gratitude for that.”
