Hi, thanks for taking a look at my profile.

I am a warm and friendly person who will offer you a safe space to bring your challenges to. From my own experiences of counselling I know it can be daunting to take this step and I hope to put you at ease in our sessions, enable you to feel listened to and supported and help you explore what you bring to the space.

My goal is to provide you with an inclusive and non-judgmental space to explore any issues you’re facing. Together we will explore them to enable you to tap into your inner resources, build emotional resilience and improve self awareness, together with processing of difficult feelings and emotions.

I am a curious counsellor and want to get to know you, I want you to explore and know yourself better and my goal is to empower you, to help you work through presenting issues, to feel safe in doing so.

My original training was in person centred therapy and this is still my basis for our work together but I am informed by other approaches to enable a holistic overview of how we can get you to a positive outcome and achieve positive change.

I have worked with many people from a diverse range of background and I have extensive experience working with trans/non binary/gender non conforming people through working with a private gender service under a trans advocate for many years. I am a gender affirmative counsellor and have in depth awareness of the challenges people who experience gender incongruence navigate and aim to provide a comfortable space to support no matter where in your gender experience you are.

I also have extensive experience of working with loss & bereavement, stress, anxiety and depression, relationship issues and work based challenges. 

I am an experienced person centred counsellor and will work at your pace so you feel safe to explore.  I have over 10 years experience with counselling work and have been in private practice for 7+ years with previous experience within the NHS and various charitable agencies. 

I offer a warm approach as I place value on the counselor/client relationship and work within sessions to build that, so you feel safe in our work and allow the trust to develop so we can work with deep emotions and feelings.

I have worked with a diverse range of issues and people for differing backgrounds and have awareness of intersectionality and privilege.

I regularly attend training events to keep my skills and practice current and keep abreast of the challenges facing people of differing generations. 

I offer a free no obligation 15 minute telephone call where you can learn more about how I work, you can decide if you wish to work with me and we can discuss the initial session.

Limited face to face availability.

Immediate availability for video sessions - flexible with days and times including evenings and weekends.
