I’m an integrative counsellor offering a warm, down‑to‑earth space to explore whatever you’re going through – from everyday stresses, low mood and anxiety to relationship difficulties, self-esteem and life changes. We work at your pace, bringing together different therapeutic approaches to suit you as an individual, rather than a one‑size‑fits‑all model.

I have a special interest and experience in supporting people who have lived through sexual violence or sexual abuse. I understand how issues like shame, trust, boundaries, intimacy and feeling safe in your own body can be affected, and I’m mindful of how hard it can be to reach out. My approach is trauma‑informed, gentle and collaborative – you stay in control of what you share and when.

Sessions are available online and face to face, providing flexibility and consistency wherever you are. If you’re feeling ready to talk, we can take the first step together and see whether I feel like the right fit for you.

Your first counselling session will usually be an assessment session, giving us an opportunity to get to know each other and explore what has brought you to counselling. During this session, I will explain how counselling works, including confidentiality and what you can expect from our work together. You will have the opportunity to talk about any concerns, challenges, or goals that you would like support with, and I may ask some questions to help me better understand your situation and background.

There is no pressure to share everything at once, and you are welcome to discuss only what feels comfortable for you. The first session is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have and to decide whether counselling with me feels like the right fit. Together, we will begin to identify your needs and discuss how future sessions can support you in working towards your goals.
