I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to recommend Peggy. There’s something deeply human in the way she listens, thinks

and connects.”

Papiya Rozario​ MA MBACP

If you’re struggling with anxiety, relationship issues, or going through a breakup or divorce, you may be feeling exhausted by self-doubt and emotional ups and downs. You might be longing for greater clarity and calm, and for renewed confidence so you can build healthier, more fulfilling relationships. 

If we work together, we’ll explore unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour to begin to reduce your stress and encourage new ways of relating. I’ll also pay close attention to what's special about you—your strengths, unique qualities, and what matters most to you—so these can be recognised and developed as part of the work.

I also support people through significant life changes—starting university, leaving home, forming and sustaining relationships, living together, marriage, having children, menopause, later life, and bereavement. These transitions can be unsettling, and we’ll focus on understanding what’s happening for you, and finding ways you can manage change more comfortably.

I’ve a background in women’s psychology and wellbeing, including pregnancy, birth, and parenting, having written and published extensively on these subjects, and worked alongside many pioneers in women's health, including Sheila Kitzinger, Penelope Leach, and Miriam Stoppard. I therefore have particular expertise in women’s life-stage issues and the challenges of parenting, and being parented.

I offer short-term focused therapy and long-term work. If you would like a free initial conversation, we can discuss your needs to determine whether I might be the right therapist for you. 

Life Stages

Whether you are navigating family or work challenges, raising children, or dealing with midlife, retirement, or aging, my focus is on helping you through the psychological shifts that define each chapter of your life.

I focus on building your emotional resilience and self-worth, and celebrating what’s special about you. As a psychodynamic therapist, I will encourage you to look at the roots of unhelpful patterns and maladaptive ways of relating to help you understand what’s getting in the way of you finding new, healthier, and more

peaceful habits of mind. 

My Focus

Relationship Issues

I'll help you handle and withstand the complexities of relational anxiety. By exploring the source of your attachment style, I foster a steady path towards secure, fulfilling connections and greater peace.

The end of a relationship is a profound transition. I offer compassionate support to help you process loss, understand underlying dynamics, and rediscover your confidence and sense of self.
