My aim is to provide a space that feels safe, non-judgemental and curious. I am a humanistic counsellor which means I approach counselling with these things in mind:

• I trust that each person has a sense of what is right for them, a sort of inner compass. It’s not uncommon for life to pile things on top of it though, so we lose access to it. Part of the work of counselling can be to find our way back to that compass.
• You bring your knowledge about yourself; I bring my training about mental health; and together we collaborate on finding a way through your questions or difficulties that is uniquely suited to you.

You can expect me to be honest, consistent and compassionate in my practice.

I have worked in community counselling services with people from diverse backgrounds. I have experience working with abuse, self-criticism, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, trauma, cultural differences, neurodiversity, and LGBTQIA+ issues.

Qualifications:

• BSc in Humanistic Counselling (Metanoia Institute)
• PG Dip in Humanistic and Psychodynamic Counselling (Goldsmiths University)

I follow the Íø±¬ÃÅ Ethical Framework. Anything you share with me will be kept confidential.

I offer an initial free 15 min phone or video call so you can see if I'm a good fit for you. Please get in touch to find a time to meet.

My first session is a mutual assessment session. My aim is to get to know as much as I can about you, and in turn it is an opportinuty for you to see if you like my way of responding to you. 

Please note that my main counselling space does not have step free access. I can arrange sessions in a step free location with accessible bathroom (SE23 2QA) upon request.
