I enjoy working with adults 18+ experiencing Depression, Anxiety and Stress. You may feel like you are just surviving rather than thriving. I can help you understand where things are getting stuck for you, why those patterns might keep happening, and strategies to help you get more out of life.
My focus is on creating a strong therapeutic relationship. I like to provide counselling in the way I would like to receive it; warmth, understanding and working together to achieve long term meaningful change.
Maybe you have specific goals and issues you would like to address. Maybe you have been thinking about counselling for a while but you're not sure where to get started. Or maybe you just have a general feeling that your life could be better. Whatever the reason, I am here to help you. So is it going to be "one day" or "day one"?

I can help you learn to manage your Depression, Anxiety, Stress and Women's Health issues. The first few sessions build a strong foundation for therapy by focussing on the therapeutic relationship and getting to know each other. From there we work hard to change what can be changed and then to accept what can't be, whilst still living in accordance with your values.
