About me

It can feel very daunting when you are looking for a counsellor to support you on the journey of exploring your emotions. Its a big step and committment to find someone whom you can connect with and trust to share your worries, unpacking some of your emotional baggage. For some the process can feel difficult especially if you havnt had any experience of talking therapy before, a chance for your voice to be heard in a safe space by someone who wont judge you can be the assurance i can provide. Simply talking to someone who isnt a friend or family can feel easier somehow. Counselling is a process that we learn to trust.

I feel passionately about the power of talking, human connection and how it can make a huge difference and impact on your life.  I believe in early intervention with young people and by simply listening and being heard can relieve some of the stresses and anxieties young people face, by providing tools to take into adulthood, facilitating the healing process.

My approach to my practice is warm, welcoming and friendly with a down to earth way of being, I believe in human connection and the therapeutic relationship. I trust the process, it’s not an easy journey but it is one that will support you on your way to become the best version of yourself.
