About me and my therapy practice
I'm not here to offer fluffy platitudes or quick fixes. Life can be incredibly tough — I know that first-hand. I’m a qualified and experienced counsellor, but more importantly, I’m someone who’s walked through pain, trauma, and uncertainty myself. That lived experience shapes how I work: with honesty, compassion, and a deep respect for the strength it takes to ask for help.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, grieving, or just trying to make sense of things, I offer a space where you can be real — no judgement, no pressure. My approach is down-to-earth and collaborative. I won’t pretend to have all the answers, but I will walk alongside you as we explore what healing and growth might look like for you.
A Safe Space to Be You
I believe in the power of being truly heard. In our sessions, you’ll find a space where you can speak freely, explore your experiences, and begin to understand yourself better. Therapy can be challenging, but it can also be deeply healing. I’ll walk alongside you with empathy, consistency, and professional support.
If you're ready to talk — or even if you're not sure yet — get in touch. You don’t have to do this alone

My first session
Taking the first step towards counselling can feel overwhelming. That’s why I offer a free 15–30 minute phone or online consultation, no pressure, no obligation. It’s simply a chance for us to connect and see if working together feels right for you.
Your First Session
If you decide to continue after the consultation, we’ll schedule your first session. You’ll receive an email with all the details, session format, fees, and what to expect.
Therapy is open-ended, and you decide how long you’d like to continue, whether for a few weeks, months, or longer.
Get in Touch
Ready to take the first step? Contact me by phone, text, or email. If I’m unavailable, I’ll get back to you as soon as I can, usually the same day.
