About me and my therapy practice
I support clients by providing a space where they can explore the challenges they face without judgement. Through active listening and sensitive questioning, I help clients build an understanding of their issues and provide perspective to help them find possible solutions, or to move towards a sense of self that feels authentic and meaningful. I recognise that issues cannot always be resolved, and in such cases I believe that the therapeutic relationship between client and counsellor can be healing.
Practice description
I encourage clients to trust their own wisdom and to build their self-awareness. The content of my sessions is often informed by what the client feels is most important to focus on. That might include reflecting on family and self, past events and how they impact the present moment, and/or personal resources and support networks.
I specialise in honouring, navigating, and supporting the experiences of people marginalised across the intersections of race, ethnicity, sexuality and gender. I work with adults and young people ages 16+ working with issues such as… ableism, abuse, ADHD, anxiety, Autism, beliefs and spirituality, culture, discrimination, education, family, gender identity, grief, homophobia, racism, relationship diversity, sexual identity, transphobia and work.
My first session
I offer a free 30 minute consultation. This gives clients a chance to share more about their hopes from counselling, as well as learning a bit about the kind of support I offer. From there, they can make a decision about whether counselling with me feels like the best route.
