I work with people ashamed of their feelings and need someone to talk to. They suffer from trauma, depression, and extreme grief. They have lost a part of themselves or someone they really love. They have a lot of outer success but internally, they feel very overwhelmed with life and feel they're drowning. They do not know how to cope anymore and mostly, they think ending their lives would ease or end the pain. They are ashamed of their feelings and they feel very much alone, no one understands them and they don’t have anyone to talk to. They are fed up and they cannot see, hear nor feel anything positive anymore.

Hi, I'm Andy, and I want to instill hope back in you for your future. Are you stuck going round and round in circles, on the hamster wheel of life, or "making the same mistakes" in relationships, over and over again? I've been there myself. Maybe giving yourself time to pause, reflect, and gaining some new tools for your personal toolbox is all you need to start the journey to wholeness. Let's dive deep into a world of discovery and choices, that our emotions are often signposts to deeper truths, if only we take the time and have the eyes to see. Often the greatest rewards lie at the end of life's hardest roads.

You might be the strong one. Capable, high‑functioning, the one everyone leans on. But inside you feel anxious, wired, and tired of holding it all together. You overthink conversations, over‑give in relationships, and question yourself afterward. Maybe you reach for wine, food, or constant busyness just to take the edge off. You may have experienced trauma, grief, or a narcissistic relationship that shook your sense of safety. You want to feel calm, secure, and at home in yourself again, in your relationships, and in your body.

Something not working the way it used to? You’re getting through, but it’s taking more effort than it should and it’s starting to show in your mood, your habits, or how you’re getting through the day. Most people I see aren’t in crisis. They’re functioning, but it’s getting harder to keep things steady.

You may have tried to change — or tried therapy before — and found that talking hasn't been enough. Something in you knows what you're carrying goes deeper than stress or bad habits. Perhaps addiction, trauma, or painful patterns keep pulling you back and you don't fully understand why. Maybe life feels heavy, relationships are strained, or you've lost your sense of self. You might feel ashamed, exhausted, or simply stuck. You don't need to have it figured out to reach out. You just need to be ready to look a little deeper. That readiness is enough.

I became a counsellor to be with people and help them feel less alone. All experiences are welcome - whatever your background, identity, or journey, you have a place here. Magic comes from feeling safe and heard - with me, you don't have to brace for judgment, hide who you are, or do anything “correctly”. Your story is valued and you aren’t a problem to be solved. The power of therapy is not a formula to me, nor is it effective because of a framework. It works because you show up. You deserve compassion as you navigate your life and find what feels authentic to you.
