About me
Counselling & Psychotherapy in North Wales
Sometimes life can feel difficult, stressful or overwhelming. You may be struggling with your mental health, relationships, work or family life, or feel that something needs to change. You don’t have to deal with it on your own.
I’m a counsellor and psychotherapist in North Wales. I offer friendly, understanding and personal support for adults, couples, families, children and young people.
I have a particular interest in men’s mental health, burnout and work-related stress, relationships and family problems, domestic abuse, and children and young people’s mental health.
A place to talk
I believe counselling should be a place where you can talk openly and be yourself without feeling judged.
You don’t need to have all the answers before you start. Together, we can look at what is happening in your life, understand how you are feeling and find ways to help you move forward.
I use a range of proven therapy approaches, along with mindfulness and other techniques. I will always adapt the way I work to suit you, your situation and what you want to achieve.
Helping you move forward
I aim to help you better understand yourself, deal with difficult experiences, improve your relationships and feel more able to manage life’s challenges.
I’m a genuine and positive person, and I believe people can change, grow and recover. I also understand from my own experience how valuable the right support can be. With support, I was able to survive difficult times, adapt, grow and find happiness again.
I bring that belief in people to my work with every client.
I also have regular professional supervision. This helps me reflect on my work, continue learning and make sure I provide the best support I can.
You don’t have to know exactly what you need before starting counselling. Sometimes the first step is simply talking to someone who will listen.
If you feel counselling could help, please get in touch. We can have a conversation about what you’re going through and whether I’m the right person to support you.
Supporting meaningful change
My aim is not simply to help you get through a difficult period. I want to help you develop the insight, confidence and tools to create lasting and sustainable change — in how you understand yourself, manage challenges, relate to others and approach life.
I’m a genuine person with a positive outlook, and I strongly believe in people’s capacity to adapt, grow, and recover. I know personally how powerful the right support can be. With support, I was able to survive difficult experiences, adapt, grow and ultimately find happiness.
I bring that belief in people into my work with every client.
Regular professional supervision is an important part of my practice. It allows me to reflect on my work continually, challenge my thinking, develop my skills and ensure that the support I provide remains thoughtful, ethical and responsive to each individual.
You don’t need to know exactly what you need from therapy before getting started. Sometimes the first step is simply having a conversation with someone who will listen.
If you’re ready to explore whether counselling could help, I’d be happy to hear from you.
Counselling & Psychotherapy in North Wales
You might look like you’re coping, but inside things feel very different.
Perhaps you’re feeling stressed, anxious, overwhelmed or exhausted. Maybe work has become too much, your relationships are struggling, or you’ve been carrying difficult experiences for a long time.
You may not even know exactly what is wrong. You know that things don’t feel right anymore.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to work it all out by yourself.
I’m a counsellor and psychotherapist based in North Wales. I offer a safe, friendly and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly and be yourself.
I work with adults, couples, families, children and young people, with particular experience in:
Men’s mental health
Stress, burnout and work pressures
Anxiety, low mood and feeling overwhelmed
Relationships and family difficulties
Domestic and emotional abuse
Children and young people’s mental health
Life changes, difficult experiences and finding your way forward
You don’t have to have the right words
Starting counselling can feel daunting. You might be unsure what to say, worried about being judged, or wonder whether your problems are even serious enough to ask for help.
They are.
You don’t need a diagnosis, a plan or even a clear idea of what you want to talk about. We can start wherever you are.
I’ll listen to what you have to say, and together we can begin to make sense of what is happening and what you would like to change.
Therapy that is right for you
Everyone is different, so I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach.
I use a range of proven therapy approaches, including mindfulness, and tailor our work to your needs, experiences, and goals.
My role isn’t to tell you what to do. It is to help you understand yourself, explore what is holding you back and find ways to move forward.
A genuine approach
I would describe myself as genuine, open and positive. Most importantly, I believe in people and their ability to change and grow.
I also understand how powerful support can be. With the right support, I was able to survive difficult times, adapt, grow and find happiness again. That experience has shaped the way I work and the belief I have in every person I meet.
I continue to develop my knowledge and skills through training and regular professional supervision. This helps me reflect on my work and provide the best support I can.
Take the first step
You may have been thinking about counselling for a while.
Perhaps you’ve been telling yourself you should be able to cope. Perhaps you’re used to looking after everyone else. Or perhaps you feel ready for something to change.
You don’t have to wait until things get worse.
The first step can be as simple as getting in touch and having a conversation.
There’s no pressure and no judgment—just an opportunity to talk about what’s going on and see whether I can help.
If you feel that now might be the right time, please get in touch.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
My approach
I believe therapy should be about you, not fitting you into a particular way of working. As an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, I use different approaches and techniques depending on what you need and what feels right for you.
We can explore your thoughts, feelings, experiences and relationships, and how these may be affecting the way you feel and cope with life. I’ll work at your pace, helping you make sense of what you’re going through, understand yourself better and find ways to move forward.
My aim is to create a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where you can be open and honest. Together, we can explore what’s happening, recognise your strengths and work towards the changes you want to make.
