Íø±¬ÃÅ

I currently have limited availability in my practice.  I am available for walk and talk therapy, and online.

Face to face appointments are limited at present.

Your journey is at the heart of our work. My approach is entirely focused on you, free from judgment or opinion. As a person-centred counsellor, I walk alongside you with empathy, care, and reflection, helping you process challenges and validate your lived experience. Our time together centres on self-acceptance, navigating trauma, and fostering healing and growth, so you can feel empowered to realign with life on your own terms.

I am a Level 5 qualified counsellor, offering a warm, down-to-earth approach shaped by years of working with people and my own lived experiences. As a member of Íø±¬ÃÅ and ACTO, I am also qualified to support clients online and by phone, ensuring accessibility and connection, wherever you are.

I am a qualified counsellor and supervisor, registered with the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (Íø±¬ÃÅ). My practice is rooted in ethical integrity, ensuring competence, accountability, and credibility in every interaction. I offer compassionate, person-centred support to individuals navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, and significant life challenges, fostering resilience and empowerment.

Therapeutic Approach

I offer a free 15-minute telephone or online consultation to help you decide whether booking a session with me feels right for you.

If we determine that I'm the right therapist for you, I will send you some paperwork via email, including a counselling contract. This contract outlines clear guidelines and ensures a secure, structured approach to our work together. All information is handled with strict confidentiality and in full compliance with GDPR.

Your first session will be an opportunity for us to explore what brings you to counselling and clarify how you would like to move forward.

Investing in yourself is a powerful and valuable step, one that can enhance your life in meaningful ways.

I look forward to connecting with you.
