Hello, and welcome. Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, and there may be moments when speaking with a warm, approachable counsellor could help. Together, we can explore the challenges you are facing in a safe, supportive environment and work towards meaningful change, self-awareness, and empowerment.
Therapy Designed Around You
I work with adults, young people and children, in person, online or by phone.
Sessions are 50 mins in length and we can work on a short term or long term basis.
My practice is grounded in the Person-Centred approach which places your voice, experiences and inner strengths at the heart of our work together. I believe every person has the capacity for growth when they feel genuinely heard, understood and accepted. I offer empathy, unconditional positive regard and a collaborative, compassionate therapeutic relationship that honours individuality and difference.
A Safe, Confidential Space to Explore What Matters to You
I am a qualified integrative counsellor committed to providing a confidential, non-judgmental space where you can openly explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace. As every individual is unique, I tailor my therapeutic approach to suit your personal needs, drawing from a range of counselling methods to support your well-being and growth.
What to Expect
I offer a free optional 20-minute introduction / getting to know each other session, online or by phone. If you wish to go ahead with an initial session, my standard fee applies. I do encourage clients to think about how the first session has been as the need for a good match with your therapist is crucial. If we begin to work together, I will provide you with my therapy contract, which will apply from this point onwards.
The therapy will be reviewed at regular intervals to ensure you are getting what you need and to address any challenges that may have arisen in the work.
