About me
I’m Sally, a highly qualified counsellor with a deep commitment to supporting children and young people through life’s hardest moments.
Before becoming a therapist, I worked in schools as a teacher. I saw how early experiences, especially difficult or traumatic ones, can shape how children see themselves and relate to the world. That understanding led me to retrain as a therapist, so I could help children (and the adults they become) heal, grow, and reclaim a sense of self-worth.
I hold a Level 7 Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling Children and Young People from the University of Northampton and am a member of the BACP. I’m currently completing my Master’s in Counselling Children and Young People, continuing to deepen my knowledge in this specialist field.
Whether I’m working with a child, teen, or adult, my approach is compassionate, creative, and shaped around each person’s unique needs.
Healing looks different for everyone, but it always starts with feeling safe, seen, and supported.
I chose the name Patchwork Pathways because healing isn’t linear and it’s never one-size-fits-all. It’s like a patchwork quilt: made of many different pieces, stitched together through time, effort, and care.
Some of those pieces come from pain, others from strength. In therapy, we begin to understand how your past has shaped your present, and from there, create new pathways forward. Ones that feel safer, stronger, and more authentic to who you truly are.
