I offer integrative counselling, which means the approach is tailored to you rather than drawn from a single modality. My practice is relational, focusing on the therapeutic relationship we build together and exploring how you feel and think.

I have supported adults (18+) experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, low self-esteem, relationship challenges and suicidal ideation. I also have experience working with neurodivergent clients, including those with ADHD, autism and OCD.

Where helpful, we may work with your somatic experiencing, as our psychological and physiological experience is often interconnected, and our physical sensations can provide information about how we experience our emotions. I may also draw on my coaching skills depending on your needs and goals for the work.

Although every person's story is unique, many share a desire to understand themselves more fully and to develop a kinder, more compassionate relationship with themselves.

I offer both shorter-term and longer-term work.

Talking therapy is exactly what it sounds like - a structured space to talk with someone trained to listen closely and help you make sense of what you're saying. It isn't about being told what to do or being given a diagnosis. It's a collaborative process that explores how you think, feel and relate to yourself and others.

You don't need to be in crisis to benefit. Talking therapy suits anyone who wants to understand themselves more fully, whether that's working through something specific or simply wanting the space to think out loud.

I offer an initial, no-obligation 20-minute session, which will provide us with a chance to meet and get to know each other. I will also talk you through my approach, and we may briefly explore what brings you to counselling or coaching.

If you decide to work with me, we can agree on a time and place to meet; I offer in-person and online therapy. We can also talk about how we work together and any expectations of the work.
