Appointments often available within 24–48 hours.
I understand that when you decide to seek counselling, waiting several weeks to begin can feel difficult.
I therefore keep some flexibility in my diary and can often offer an initial appointment the following day. Please see my website for further details.

🔊 What Does Tinnitus Really Sound Like?
Tinnitus is the perception of sound when no external source is present. The experience is different for everyone—some hear soft noises, while others notice loud or constant sounds that can interfere with daily life, sleep, and concentration. Although tinnitus is not a disease itself, it can be a symptom of an underlying hearing or health condition.

🎧 Common Sounds People Describe
🔔 Ringing, like a bell
🐝 Buzzing, similar to a bee
🐍 Hissing or sizzling
🌬️ Whooshing or rushing wind
⏰ Clicking or ticking sounds
🦁 Roaring or humming noises
⚡ High-pitched whistling
📻 Continuous or pulsing tones
⚠️ Possible Causes
Age-related hearing loss
Exposure to loud noise
Earwax buildup
Ear infections
✨ If tinnitus lasts for several days, affects your hearing, or occurs with dizziness or severe ear pain, consult a healthcare professional. Early evaluation can help identify the cause and guide the most appropriate treatment or management plan. Protecting your hearing today can support better ear health for the future.

I offer one-to-one Tinnitus Advisory Sessions, using evidence-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) approaches to help reduce distress, manage anxiety, and develop practical strategies so tinnitus has less impact on your daily life.
While there is no cure for tinnitus, there are effective ways to change how you respond to it and regain a sense of control.
Online and telephone appointments available.

Practical Support for Tinnitus and Sound Sensitivity

22/06/2026

New service launch: Tinnitus and Hyperacusis Advisory sessions
I'm delighted to announce a new addition to my practice.
Following specialist training with Tinnitus UK I am now able to offer Tinnitus and Hyperacusis Advisory sessions providing guidance, advice, information and signposting to help individuals better understand and manage these often distressing conditions.

Living with Tinnitus or sound sensitivity can have a significant impact on emotional well-being, sleep, concentration and quality of life.
Alongside practical support and education, I also draw upon Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to help clients manage distress, challenge unhelpful thought patterns and develop effective coping strategies.

My aim is to support clients in building confidence, reducing the impact these conditions have on daily life and helping them move towards greater acceptance and well-being.

For further information or to discuss whether this service may be suitable for you, please get in touch.
