About me

You don't need to know what you want to achieve before starting counselling.

It isn't always about a particular issue. It can be about feeling disconnected from yourself, struggling to cope, or knowing that life feels harder than it should.

You may feel overwhelmed, stuck, lost, or unsure of where to turn next. Perhaps you're finding relationships difficult, struggling with self-doubt, or being affected by experiences long after they happened.

You might be thinking I should be happier, I should know what I want, I should be able to handle this

Whatever has brought you here, you're not alone - and you don't have to figure it out by yourself.

At Space to Be, I offer a warm supportive space for you to take your time and explore what's happening for you. A place where you don't have to minimise your feelings, hold everything together, or worry about getting it right.

I work with people facing a wide range of challenges, including, trauma, abuse, low self-esteem, difficult family dynamics, relationship issues, grief, loss, neurodivergence, significant life changes, anxiety and depression

I am here to listen to, and care about you, to help you figure out how you feel, and allow you to experience those feelings without embarrassment, guilt, shame or judgement.

I believe everyone deserves the time and space to understand themselves more fully.

If you're considering counselling and would like to find out more, I offer a free 20-minute introductory call. It's an opportunity to ask questions, talk about what you're looking for, and see whether working together feels like the right fit for you.
