With me, you have a trust worthy and confidential counsellor, without judgements or prejudices, solely placing you at the centre of the process, where you belong.
There is no instruction manual on what to do as a client in counselling, it can support you in navigating your situation and feelings and when you're ready assist you in finding a way.
You may be anxious and unsure of the direction of your life, maybe you feel something is missing, have suffered a bereavement, are overwhelmed by anxiety or you just don't feel like yourself. Counselling can help.
You can just use the space to tell me whatever is in your head.
It is not always comfortable and can be challenging, it is your story and although I encourage you to share, it is of course for you to feel comfortable to do that.
About me
My work is integrative, working with Person Centered Therapy (here and now) and Psychodynamic (your past, the visible and the invisible).
As well as a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and specialist bereavement training from a local hospice, I have a wealth of experience working with individuals over the previous 6 years. I also have trained with SANDs (baby loss), Anxiety and Trauma and continue to read and attend training to continue to support my clients.
Reflecting, linking and hearing yourself talk, uninhibited, is powerful therapy.
If I am not the therapist for you, I wish you all the very best in your search and journey.
My Practice
You will have an opportunity to express and explore your feelings, and share your personal story.
Therapy with me is built on trust, freedom to speak and the opportunity to be heard.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
