Everyone calls me Nat for short, and I'm told that I'm a friendly, warm, and easy-going person.

In my view, the most important part of counselling is trust. It should be somewhere you can feel safe to talk honestly, however messy that might be, without being judged or dismissed. If you need to laugh, cry, swear, or share something that feels too heavy to say to others, that’s all OK here.

Over the years, I’ve found that I'm a good fit for those who prefer the space to talk things through at their pace, rather than focusing heavily on exercises or techniques. My approach is about having a thoughtful and straightforward conversation, exploring what's going on in your life, and helping you make sense of things without too much jargon. I'll sometimes ask questions, make observations, or offer a different perspective, but won't patronise you or pressure you into anything that doesn't feel right.

My experience includes counselling for anxiety, depression, loss, self-esteem, and navigating life changes. I also have a good deal of experience providing counselling for people who've lived through abusive and traumatic relationships, whether that was during childhood or as an adult.

Some areas that I'm particularly passionate about, are queer identity and neurodiversity, as well as anyone who feels like they're living in a system that wasn't built for them. As someone who often hasn't fit the mainstream mould, I’ve learned that happiness, relationships, and identity rarely fit into neat boxes, and I know how important it is to find someone who values your individuality, rather than treating you like an alien.

If I sound like someone you'd like to talk with, I look forward to hearing from you.
