About me
I am an Integrative Counsellor which means I work in a variety of ways to suit you and your needs.
I don't have a one size fits all approach, and my aim is to make counselling accessible for all and for talking about mental health to become the norm.
I'm just me, but with me you'll get a space to relax, to be listened to and to be supported to finding a way through whatever might be causing you to feel not quite yourself at the moment.
I’m trained and experienced in working with both children and adults with a wide range of emotional and psychological needs. Whether you’re seeking support for yourself or for a young person in your life, I offer a flexible, compassionate approach that adapts to what you need most.
If you’d like to know more, please feel free to get in touch — there’s absolutely no obligation to begin sessions. I’m always happy to offer a free initial conversation so you can ask questions, explore what you’re looking for, and get a sense of whether this feels like the right next step for you.
