When was the last time you had someone’s full attention for 50 minutes? Do you have a safe space to voice and explore your inner thoughts and feelings? Most people don’t have that day-to-day and it’s my passion to be able to facilitate that space for you - to enable you to move forwards and break free from whatever is troubling you. I have 25 years lived experience of having a chronic illness & disability and I am passionate about helping others to process/manage/deal with theirs. I have a Diploma in Working with Children and Adolescents (6+) and have a great deal of experience counselling in schools and for charities.

You can call me on 07786 017997 for a free consultation. I offer face-to-face counselling as well as online sessions and by telephone. It's not always easy to discuss personal problems with a loved one, relatives or friends. You may find it easier to talk to a trained professional in a relaxed, safe and confidential environment. Talking through your issues can feel like a weight has been lifted. I have a wide range of experience and can help you recognise and manage any past and/or present difficulties you may be facing and guide you towards making the changes you wish to make which may benefit every aspect of your life.

I enjoy working with young people and adults alike. I have been told by past clients that I am open, honest and friendly, which are qualities that all clients have valued. I like to problem solve and am a very logical and practical person. Having lived in several different countries, I have developed a good understanding of a range of issues for people from different cultures and backgrounds. I like to ask questions and truly get to know someone and never assume to know better. My clients are always the experts in their lives and I see myself as a guide to help them navigate to a calmer place.

I aim to provide a safe space for individuals, couples, and young people where anxieties can be talked through, free from any sense of judgement. Every effort will be made to establish a trusting relationship with you. I will seek to understand your situation and help you to explore the way you feel about yourself and your concerns as well as your hopes and desires. The counselling relationship can help you to become aware of patterns in behaviour that have developed in your life and reveal how those past experiences may still affect you now. Working this through in therapy can give you greater choice in the way you live.
