"Like living cells in a larger body, it is natural that we feel the trauma of our world. So don’t be afraid of the anguish you feel, or the anger or fear, because these responses arise from the depth of your caring and the truth of your interconnectedness with all beings."
Joanna Macy
Welcome to Phoenix Nature Therapy
Counselling & psychotherapy in Derbyshire: wherever you prefer to be: outside, in comfortable therapy rooms, or online.
I offer spaces where the messy underlayers of life are welcome. A place to slow down, breathe, and feel supported. Together we can talk things through, learn, challenge, get creative, reconnect with what matters to you, and figure out what you would like to change.
You don’t need to have everything worked out. Just drop me a message. We’ll take it step by step. I also offer a free 20–30 minute initial chat (online or by phone) so you can get a feel for how I work and whether it feels like a good fit.
My work is rooted in relational, trauma‑informed, nature‑based therapy, inviting you to slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with your own inner wisdom. Whether we’re walking outdoors, exploring natural objects, working somatically with the nervous system, or sitting together online, you are welcome exactly as you are.
Phoenix Nature grew from a quiet hope: that by rebuilding our relationship with nature, with each other, and with ourselves, we can find healing not only for our own lives, but also for the wider world we belong to. Even in the ashes, a quiet ember remains — the Phoenix’s reminder that something new can always begin to grow.
