My website
I offer a responsive, accepting approach tailored to you, to help with challenges like change, transition or stuckness. A safe space in which to process experiences, with opportunities to heal, find meaning, build resilience and safety. I listen and respond with empathy and curiosity. I am warm, friendly, non-judgemental and easy to talk to. Perhaps you are: • parenting, in (peri)menopause, career or relationship change • adjusting to a diagnosis, for yourself or a neurodivergent child • younger or older • overwhelmed by global change • feeling social expectation • leaving, joining or changing perspective in a religion
Integrative Counsellors have working knowledge of several counselling approaches. I listen to you and pay close attention to what happens between us / your needs. I am inspired and influenced by the Person-Centred Approach: • genuine contact between counsellor and client • clients feel understanding and empathy • unwavering acceptance • I am 'real', present
Every person is unique: I am open to hear from you. Counselling can help with many situations and it can be challenging. My own experience of a transformative therapy relationship led me into this work. I work with adults and children If we work together, I will pay close attention to you and our developing relationship. Please visit my site or get in touch

I offer an initial consultation to look at my counselling agreement, become curious and explore in more depth whether I am the right therapist for you. In following sessions, I tailor my approach to your needs and hopes. I might focus on offering space, empathy and acceptance. I might suggest creative activities, question, challenge, share ideas or make plans. I am always interested in your story.

Every client is different. I trust the person and therapy relationship to prompt creative ways of working. In addition to empathy, deep listening and acceptance, I might invite clients to use story, metaphor, writing, goals / plans, drawing, toys / objects or other creative prompts. I might share insights, knowledge or theory. I might suggest homework. My style is emergent and collaborative.
