About me
Sometimes life can feel difficult to navigate, and it can be hard to know where to start or who to talk to. You might be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, low, struggling with relationships, dealing with a difficult change, or simply not feeling quite like yourself. Whatever has brought you here, you don’t have to have all the answers before reaching out.
I’m a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist, and I offer a warm, friendly and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly and be yourself. I work with young people aged 12 and over, adults and couples, supporting people through a range of challenges and difficult experiences.
I believe that counselling should feel like a space where you can genuinely be heard and understood. I won’t judge you or tell you what you should do. Instead, I’ll work alongside you to understand what’s going on, help you make sense of how you’re feeling and explore what might help you move forward.
When working with young people, I understand that reaching out for counselling can feel daunting. You may not know what to say, or you may not even be sure that counselling is for you. That’s okay. We can take things at your pace and start wherever feels comfortable.
I also work with adults who may be struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, relationships, grief, life changes, feeling overwhelmed or simply finding life difficult at the moment. Sometimes you may know exactly what you want help with, and sometimes you may just know that something doesn’t feel right. We can work that out together.
At present, I offer all counselling sessions online, providing a flexible and comfortable way to access support from your own space.
My aim is for you to feel comfortable, listened to and accepted for who you are. Counselling doesn’t have to be intimidating or overly formal — it’s simply a chance to have some time and space for yourself, with someone who is there to listen and support you.
If you’re wondering whether counselling might be right for you, please feel free to get in touch. We can have an initial conversation about what you’re looking for and see whether I’m the right person to support you.
