I am an experienced therapist working with both couples and individuals. I work with a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, bereavement, career issues and relationships. If you are a couple, you may be attending therapy to work through a particular challenge or event, to maintain a relationship that's essentially working well, or to consider ending a relationship kindly and respectfully. Whether you're attending individually or as a couple, at the start of our work, we'll identify what you want to achieve from counselling. Whether your aims are abstract or specific, we can work towards them together.

I'm versatile and responsive and I'll work in a way that's beneficial to you. Sometimes it's enough to hear yourself out loud, to feel witnessed and understood. I also offer challenge, observation and psycho-education. I may suggest activities to complete at home. I integrate emotional exploration alongside a practical, solution-focussed approach.

As a therapist, I'm warm, active and dynamic. Our sessions will be a two way exchange. I'll work at your pace and offer you a safe, confidential setting. Whether you're attending individually or as a couple, I offer a space for exploration and discovery. Counselling can help clarify what you want to change, and supports you in making those changes happen.
