I currently have availability on Friday's. 

I will have more day's available soon. 

I am available for in person and online sessions. 

Hello, I'm Mel, I’m a qualified counsellor with about 10 years of experience working with both adults and young people. I offer a warm, empathetic, and non-judgemental space where you can explore whatever challenges you're facing — whether that’s something from your past, what you’re going through right now, or worries about the future.

I truly believe that therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating. It can be a space where you're met with compassion, curiosity, and support — and where small steps can lead to meaningful change.

I use an integrative approach which means I use various approaches to meet your individual needs.  

I’m passionate about helping people reach their full potential and develop a deeper awareness of themselves and their relationships — especially in recognising the difference between healthy and unhealthy dynamics.

 I also specialise in mindfulness techniques, which can help bring calm, clarity, and focus during stressful times.

I have experience supporting neurodivergent clients, particularly teenagers, and I work with many transgender and gender-diverse individuals. My aim is always to create a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment where you can explore your experiences at your own pace.

I am also able to provide play therapy for younger clients. 

I can offer both long term and short term therapy. 

Seeking support can feel scary and overwhelming but I want to put your mind at ease and let you know that in my sessions, there's no pressure, we can go at your pace. 

In the first session I will have some questions to go through with you to help me get an idea of what's going on for you and how I can support you. I will also be able to answer any questions about counselling you might have. 

The first session is an opportunity for you to see if you feel comfortable with me and if you will be happy to work with me. 

I also offer a free 15 minute consultation telephone call where I can answer any initial questions.
