About me

Counselling

I am an integrative and person-centered counsellor who engages in relational work with young adults and adults experiencing crises or difficulties in areas such as work, personal matters, and relationships. I offer a space of quality attention that assists you in exploring your options to develop the best possible steps forward. My services include short-term and long-term counselling tailored to meet your specific needs.

Training, Qualification & Experience

As a qualified counsellor holding a degree level qualification and postgraduate diploma-level clinical supervisor certification, my primary approach focuses on humanism - emphasizing the entire experience of individuals. Empathetic relating without judgement is integral to my practice.

I possess valuable experience working within mental health institutions as well as educational environments including schools, children's charities for youth mental health support, family support organizations, and domestic violence charities. Currently managing a a face to face and online private practice. 

My extensive background has enabled me to facilitate group sessions alongside one-to-one counselling sessions while managing short- or long-term projects effectively. Additionally, I have worked closely with counsellors-in-training regarding course criteria and portfolios.
