About me

Hello. I’m Bec – a Person Centred Counsellor, with a passion for mental health and people.

Over the last 50 years I have worn many hats – a Mum to three teenage boys, Wife, Chef, Mature Student and Dog owner. I’m an Aussie Girl who has found herself in the UK. After 12 years in Southampton, it was time for a Sea Change, I’ve found my forever home in Cornwall. These diverse experiences have guided me toward my Counselling Journey.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy, respect, authenticity and most importantly non-judgement. Being Person Centred fundamentally, with aspects of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Gestalt interwoven for your individual needs.

I'm here to help you navigate life's challenges and discover the strength within you. I truly believe everyone is their own expert with the ability to help themselves, with the right tools and guidance. Taking the 1st step is the hardest, let's embark on a transformative journey together.

My Counselling room is a warm, safe space in the Cornish Country side surrounded by green fields and bird song.
