About me

When we’re looking for a solution to a problem, very little motivates us as much as seeing another person going through the same process and coming out on top. So l am here with lots of tried and true changes which will help you show up in healthier happier ways in all your relationships as well as how to navigate your own internal emotional territory. 

I became an Emotional Coach because l had to learn how to navigate my own emotional difficulties. So l have an experiential understanding of just how it feels when we can find ourselves repeating old patterns that only actually take us back to the same place.
I work with new clients on Zoom, and start off with a discovery call, which is totally free, so that you see if you feel comfortable with me and you can  tell me about your hoped for goals.

I have found that being able to clearly identify what your attachment style is, and those of people you chose to have relationships with have a valuable and fascinating relevance in better potential relationship success. Also what your trauma triggers are and why. Awareness is the key for change to take place. I work with clients and give and teach them some very fundamental information necessary that will give them a “tool box” of better emotional understanding so that things become clearer and easier. 

I also give WhatsApp out of hours support when needed in between appointments which can sometimes be of such value when someone is caught up in a problem in between consultations, and provide written articles which relate to their individual need for further information on where their difficulties are occurring. 

As the discovery call is totally free of charge being able just to talk through and identify where l might be able to help is of such benefit as l believe it is important also to feel you can work with someone.

What I work with:

I work with people and children in all kinds of emotional difficulty, feeling trapped by situations or relationships that leave them overwhelmed, feeling unable to move through or forward. This might include:

  • Narcissistic abuse
  • Abandonment issues
  • Relationship problems
  •  Narcissistic relationships of all kinds and their red flags 
  • Family enmeshment and entanglement
  • Co-dependency
  • Couple problems
  • Anxiety and overwhelm
  • Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
  • Feeling lost and broken
  • Loss and grief of all kind
  • Freedom for repeating negative patterns
  • Nervous breakdown
  • Long COVID and COVID-associated trauma 

It all starts with a phone call

During this call you will get a feel as to whether I may help, and am the right fit for you. 

Client testimonials

Keith Testimonial..


I turned to Gail after going through quite a tough period that left me in somewhat of an emotional quagmire. I have been through various forms of therapy over the past twenty years which only had a superficial and short-lived effect on resolving some deep-rooted issues. Since working with Gail the impact on my general mental and emotional wellbeing has been remarkable. Her approach is fresh, she gives you the confidence in being able to tackle the difficult problems and literally takes you under her wing and genuinely takes care of you. The benefits of our weekly sessions have been reflected in my ability to deal with challenges in both personal and professional relationships. We are continuing to build a strong foundation with the right tools to recognise where and when there may be kinks in the road going forward. I cannot recommend Gail enough, she knows what she's talking about and cuts out a lot of BS you often hear from other practitioners in the field.

*************************

First of all I would like to say a massive thank you to Gail! I am so happy to have found her and would fully recommend her therapy services. I found Gail while going through a very difficult time in my life. To say Gail is the most supportive therapist I've ever encountered would be an understatement. She is very proactive in her approach and provides you with language and vocabulary to better make sense of what you are feeling or may be experiencing - which in itself really goes a long way to create calm and peace within. Gail is also very knowledgeable, insightful, kind and gives great sound advice; which when followed resulted in good outcomes that helped to give me hope and provide light in my life.

I also appreciate that Gail shares applicable parts of her life with me, it helps to normalise/humanise the challenges I face and realise that I am not alone - but most importantly if I was to fall I have someone to help me back up. Gail is also very understanding and actually "gets it", furthermore after a short while of working with her I could see she genuinely cares and is invested in me getting and feeling better. 

One of Gail's many USPs as a therapist is definitely her responsiveness, flexibility and her willingness to provide ad-hoc support via whatsapp (texts, calls and voice-notes). Gail provided me with some flower remedies which I have been taking for a few weeks and have noticed a positive shift in how I feel. Gail has definitely made a positive difference in my life and outlook; although things are still challenging they are improving and I am gaining in confidence to navigate through this time with Gail's support. Thank you! x

After going through a difficult period that left me feeling emotionally overwhelmed, I sought help from Gail. Despite trying various forms of therapy in the past, they only provided temporary relief for my deep-rooted issues. However, since working with Gail, I have noticed a marked difference in my mental and emotional wellbeing. My family ties have been rebuilt after being distant for years, and my career has also grown significantly. Her approach is unique and she instills confidence in her clients to tackle difficult problems. Gail takes a genuine interest in her clients and provides support throughout the process. Our weekly sessions have also positively impacted my personal and professional relationships. We are currently building a strong foundation and learning to recognize potential obstacles in the future. I highly recommend Gail as she is knowledgeable and avoids the unnecessary fluff often found in the field.

I genuinely look forward to your contact.

Additional information

I have never turned a troubled soul away - l know that not everyone in pain emotionally can afford high fees. I treat patients with one to one consultations that take place once a week either remotely, or here in my home in London.

My consultations are for a minimum of 5 weeks and are usually ongoing depending on the individual and their needs the fees. Consultations are £100, but l will adjust according to the financial circumstances of the patient.

l do not charge by the hour, but by the consultation when treating, diagnosing and prescribing for Flower Remedies. I use the ABC diagnostic approach which l achieved through course work with Ainsworths In London. I believe results and felt epiphanic change felt by patients speak louder than letters, and my testimonials reflect this. I treat people for a myriad of issues with flower remedies: these consultations can take anywhere up to 2 hours, and they receive a bottle of individually prescribed Flower Remedies which last up to a month. The drops are £20.
