About me
I bring not only professional training but also extensive life experience. Like many people, I have faced and worked through a range of personal challenges, which allows me to genuinely understand that life is not always a straightforward path. At times, the weight of past experiences and current pressures can feel overwhelming.
We all carry emotional "baggage," and there are moments when it becomes too heavy to manage alone. Counselling offers a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, helping you make sense of what you are experiencing and begin moving towards positive change.
There are times in life when we lose direction or feel stuck. My role is to support you through those moments with compassion, empathy and understanding. Every session is tailored to you—your experiences, your pace and your goals. Together, we will explore what has brought you to counselling and work towards a deeper understanding of your thoughts, emotions and behaviours, helping you build resilience and move forward with greater confidence.
I also support family members who have been impacted by a loved one's addiction, recognising the emotional toll this can have on relationships and wellbeing.
I'm particularly passionate about improving mental health support for men, creating a space where they feel heard, understood and able to talk openly without fear of judgement or stigma.
I can support you with:
Anxiety and low mood
Emotional suppression
Anger management
Major life transitions
Bereavement and loss
Guilt, shame and self-worth
Trauma and difficult life experiences
Low self-esteem and self-confidence
Family members affected by addiction
Relationship and family difficulties
Obsessive thoughts and behaviours
Alcohol and drug-related issues
Whatever has brought you here, you don't have to face it alone. I am here to listen, support and work alongside you—without judgement.
