About me
Counselling can help with many problems whether they're relational, emotional or caused by trauma. At times we can struggle with our circumstances and mental health. Past events and challenges in the present may negatively impact your quality of life. Coping mechanisms often start to fail or become unhelpful.
Counselling allows some time and space to focus on your concerns, often providing insight and clarity. It's an opportunity for honest open communication, without the fear of judgement and repercussions. This tends to aid growth and healing, ultimately resulting in change and acceptance. I don't diagnose you or tell you what to do. Instead I support you with whatever it is you wish to bring, offering psychologically informed reflections where appropriate.
My Approach:
I'm a graduate integrative counsellor, with past experience in mental health, general practice and domestic violence settings. I offer short-term, long-term and open-ended counselling. I work with individual adults, from 18 years of age upwards.
A collaborative and understanding therapeutic relationship can really benefit you, so please don't hesitate to get in touch to book an initial consultation.
I look forward to hearing from you.
