About me

I am a compassionate and experienced counsellor dedicated to supporting individuals on their journey to healing, growth, and self-discovery. With over ten years of professional experience, I specialize in helping clients navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, self-esteem.

My approach is  person-centred, integrative, CBT, and varied psychotherapeutic techniques tailored to meet the unique needs of each client in a safe, non-judgmental, and empathetic environment. I believe in empowering individuals to develop resilience, gain clarity, and achieve lasting positive change.

I work with  adults, teens, and children and offer in-person and online sessions to provide flexible, accessible support. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or seeking a space to explore your thoughts and feelings, I’m here to help.
