For you to be truly seen and heard, as you are, is my greatest priority. I offer warmth and welcome, without judgement or expectation. The decision to seek counselling can be confusing and difficult to navigate; often a decision that feels unfamiliar and vulnerable. Whilst this can be a scary place to start, my priority is to ensure you feel safe enough to explore your experiences together. I aim to facilitate a space which feels comfortable, and provides some certainty in its acceptance, compassion and warmth.  Whether you are looking to be heard and listened to, or you want to find solutions, I will be with you for every step.
I follow an integrative model of counselling, which means I draw on knowledge from a number of theories to ensure our work together is personalised and appropriate for your focus: Person-Centred; Attachment; CBT alongside others. My experience has predominantly been with Neurodivergent clients, Bereavement and Loss, Panic, Anxiety, and Depression.
I value the uniqueness of each person and aim to develop understanding through your lens. I aim to create a space that is centred around your goals and experience, to support us to navigate presenting or historic difficulties that you may be facing, or have faced.

I typically work with clients who experience overwhelm and burnout as a result of holding on to trauma in their bodies. This has been with particular reference to clients with suspected or diagnosed neurodivergent conditions with a long history of masking and emotional distress, including suicidal ideation, self harm and obsessive and compulsive behaviours.
