I offer a warm, informal and grounded presence where you'll be empowered to safely explore the issues affecting you right now. As an integrative therapist, I bring multiple therapeutic approaches to our sessions with down to earth realness, and gentle understanding.
As an integrative counsellor I weave together a variety of approaches including person centered counselling, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, parts work (IFS informed), neuroscience, Gestalt, neurobiology, somatic approaches and compassion based therapies. Together, they bring a unique flavour to our sessions, helping you explore the issues affecting you.
What brings you to counselling? Let's talk. I offer a 15 minute zero cost phone call to discuss your goals for therapy and to help you find out if we'll be a good match.
