About me and my therapy practice
When something doesn’t feel right, you don’t have to face it alone.
If something isn’t sitting right, even if you can’t explain it, this is a place to slow down and figure it out.
You don’t need to have the right words or know where to start.
We’ll take things at your pace. I’ll meet you where you are, and we’ll begin there.
There’s no pressure to open up before you’re ready, whatever you bring is enough. I’m here to walk alongside you, whether that’s for a short time or something longer.
We can sit with things together, letting them come into view at their own pace.
You can be yourself here, without feeling judged or pushed.
I work in a person-centred, integrative, relational way, which means I won’t try to fix you or tell you what to do. I’ll listen, sit with you, and help you make sense of what’s going on, so we can begin to see what might help.
You don’t have to do this on your own.
Practice description
What working together can look like.
I work in a person-centred, integrative way, shaped by experience across different settings and with people from all walks of life.
Some come feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of what’s going on. Others are working through anxiety, stress, depression, loss, addiction, or trying to understand themselves more deeply, including areas like ADHD and autism.
No two people are the same, and I don’t approach them that way. Each session is shaped around you, your pace, your needs, and what feels most helpful in the moment.
Together, we’ll make sense of what’s been happening and look at what might begin to shift.
I offer flexible ways of working, including online, face-to-face, walk-and-talk sessions, and written support for those who find it easier to express themselves.
This work isn’t about becoming someone different. It’s about understanding yourself more clearly and finding ways to move forward that feel right.
You’re welcome to reach out, whether that’s now or when the time feels right.
My first session
If you decide to get in touch, here’s what that first step can look like.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, but the first session is simply a chance to arrive and see how it feels.
There’s no pressure to have it all figured out. You can bring as much or as little as feels right, and we’ll begin with whatever feels most important to you in that moment.
Over around 50 minutes, we’ll get a sense of what’s been going on for you, what’s brought you here, and what you might want from this. It’s less about getting it “right,” and more about finding a way of working that feels comfortable.
If you’re unsure, we can keep it simple, I offer a free 15-minute call, just to see how it feels to speak.
What I can help with
Abuse, ADD / ADHD, Addictions, Anger management, Anxiety, Autism spectrum, Bereavement, Cancer, Child related issues, Chronic fatigue syndrome / ME, Cultural issues, Depression, Disability, Eating disorders, Health related issues, Identity issues, Infertility, LGBTQ+ counselling, Life coaching, Loss, Menopause, Men's issues, Mood disorder, Neurodiversity, Obsessions, OCD, Personal development, Phobias, Post-traumatic stress, Pregnancy related issues, Redundancy, Relationships, Self esteem, Self-harm, Sex-related issues, Sexual identity, Sexuality, Spirituality, Stress, Substance Dependency, Trauma, Women's issues, Work related issues
