About me
Hey, I'm Ashleigh and here is a little about what I do...
I work with clients aged 12 and above, primarily using a person-centred approach, whilst integrating other methods as needed to best support your unique needs in our sessions.
What I Offer:
Trauma-Informed Care:
Trauma can deeply impact our lives, often leaving us feeling disconnected, lost, and unsure of how to move forward. I specialise in supporting those who have experienced various forms of trauma, utilising techniques that can identify triggers and build resilience. Empowering you to move forward.
Understanding Neurodiversity:
I fully embrace and celebrate neurodiversity, recognising that each person's brain works in unique ways. I offer a tailored approach to meet the specific needs of individuals with ADHD, autism, and other neurological variations. My goal is to provide an inclusive environment where you can explore your experiences, strengths, and challenges without judgment.
Depression:
I understand how overwhelming and isolating depression can feel. In our work together, I create a safe space where you can confront and process these feelings. I help you gain clarity, develop coping strategies, and rebuild a sense of hope and strength, empowering you to move forward in a way that feels right for you.
Anxiety Management:
Anxiety can be incredibly taxing, affecting every aspect of life. In our sessions, we will work collaboratively to identify the root causes of your anxiety and develop effective coping strategies. By incorporating mindfulness practices, I aim to help you cultivate a sense of calm and regain control over your thoughts and feelings.
LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Care:
I am committed to providing an affirming and supportive space for individuals of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and expressions. I recognise the unique challenges faced by the LGBTQIA+ community, and I aim to validate your experiences while embracing your identity. Together, we will navigate issues related to acceptance, coming out, relationships, and personal growth, ensuring you feel empowered to live authentically.
Sex Positive Counseling:
I believe in creating a welcoming, open, and non-judgmental space for everyone. As a sex-positive practitioner, I embrace and respect the diverse experiences and expressions of sexuality. My goal is to help you explore, understand, and embrace your sexual health and well-being in a way that aligns with your values and desires. Whether you're dealing with intimacy issues, self-esteem, or navigating complex relationships.
Let’s Connect: If you’re considering counselling and want to see if I’m the right fit for you, I offer a free 15 -minute consultation call. It’s a chance for us to have a chat about what’s been going on for you and how I might be able to help. There’s no pressure—just an opportunity to see if working together feels right for you.
