About counselling

As human beings, we’re wired for connection. The relationships we build with others can bring us comfort, strength, and support - especially during challenging times. But when we’re feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, or simply not ourselves, reaching out to friends or family can feel difficult. That’s where counselling can help.

​

Working with a counsellor offers a safe, confidential space to explore what’s going on for you, without fear of judgement or pressure to “have it all together.” I know from my own experience just how transformative counselling can be - but I also understand that taking that first step can feel daunting. A short initial phone call can help you get a sense of how I work and whether you feel comfortable taking the next step.

 

How I Work

​

As a Humanistic, Integrative counsellor, I believe we all have the capacity for growth and positive change. My role is to walk alongside you - helping you better understand what’s happening in your life, what might be holding you back, and how to move forward with greater clarity and self-compassion.

​

Our work together is collaborative. We’ll explore your thoughts, feelings, and patterns with curiosity and care, and I’ll support you in making changes that feel right for you. I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches, tailoring sessions to your individual needs and goals. Some clients come for just a few sessions, while others value longer-term support - we’ll decide together what feels most helpful.

I work with adults and young people (aged 16+) and have experience supporting clients through a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, low self-esteem, and life transitions.

 

Professional Standards

​

I’m a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and work in accordance with their Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions. I take my commitment to ethical, safe, and effective practice seriously, and regularly engage in professional development to keep my skills and knowledge up to date.
