MNCPS Integrative Counsellor
Bristol, City of Bristol, BS9

About me

I am a fully qualified integrative counsellor offering support for those experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, work stress and low self-esteem, family and relationship issues.

I am an accredited member of the NCPS and work within their ethical framework. This involves regular supervision and additional training.
I also priorities my own mental and physical wellbeing in order to best support my clients. 

Before becoming as a counsellor I mentored young people facing a range of challenges. I also worked for a charities including Home-Start, Olive Branch Counselling and as an NHS Responder. These experiences strengthened my commitment to creating a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space for every client.

 Currently I work in a school as a counsellor as well as with adults and young people in private practice. 

In therapy I provide a space where clients feel understood, accepted, and able to be fully themselves.
If this sounds like the right support for you please contact me through email to a free consultation.
