About me
Hello, I'm Ria (she/her). If you are new to counselling, taking this first step can feel incredibly daunting, and it is completely normal to feel nervous. Please know that you don’t need to have all the answers, nor is it essential that you know exactly why you are considering therapy right now. Whatever you are experiencing, we can explore it together at your own pace.
As an experienced counsellor, I focus on creating a warm, safe, and entirely non-judgmental space. Many people come to therapy simply because they have a deep longing to be truly heard. I offer you the time to pause, reflect, and contemplate, helping you work through emotional blocks or unhelpful behaviours.
My work is focused on enabling you to find the healing, change, and growth that comes from deeper self-understanding. I truly believe that when the right environment is provided and a genuine connection is formed, meaningful change can happen.
Finding the right therapist is deeply important. To help make this first step a little easier and pressure-free, I offer a free online meet or phone call so we can discuss your needs and answer any questions you might have. When you feel ready, please feel free to reach out to me by telephone or email.
