Do you wake up each morning with the feeling of dread in the pit of your stomach? Are you lost and afraid? Just surviving but fatigued and feeling like life’s not fun? It can be a dark and lonely place to be in - but you don't have to face it alone. 

I know that healing begins when we can explore our difficult life experiences within a relationship where we feel safe, understood and fully accepted. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can bring all of yourself without fear of judgement. My role as your counsellor is to help you understand yourself more deeply, so that you can start to reconnect with the parts of yourself that may have been lost or hidden, and begin to align your life with what truly matters to you. 

I see therapy as a process of coming home to yourself.

I work with adults experiencing a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, bereavement, life transitions and feelings of stuckness. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, creative and sensitive individuals who feel at odds with the world around them. Some are struggling to find energy and motivation for the day-to-day, others are searching for a deeper sense of meaning, connection or belonging, or are exploring questions around identity, creativity, spirituality or purpose.

Rather than expecting you to fit a particular model, I adapt my therapeutic approach to what feels most helpful for you. Some clients appreciate practical tools and strategies, while others benefit from exploring emotions, relationships and deeper questions about who they are through a person-centred approach. I also love to invite your creativity into the counselling space, as this can be a very profound way to explore your thoughts and feelings.

I offer counselling from my peaceful garden room in Faversham, providing a calm and private space for reflection and exploration.

I offer a free 20 minute introduction call so that we can discuss what brings you to counselling and see whether we feel we can work together. Whether counselling is new to you or not, it's completely natural to feel uncertain about getting started. I'll explain how the process works and am happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. 

In our first full session, I'll spend some time going over the process and discussing some important information such as confidentiality.  I'll ask you a few questions so I can get an understanding of what brings you to counselling and what you'd like to achieve or change. Your questions are always welcome. My approach is warm and friendly and my aim is to help you to settle into the experience at a pace that feels comfortable. This can be a good session to 'feel out' whether you think we could work well together. This is your therapy and your choice: you are not obliged to stay if you don't feel we are a good client-therapist match.

I encourage openness and honesty at all times - I believe the counselling relationship is unique and one in which we get to try out new, more authentic ways of relating to others in our life.
