Trying to resolve the issues troubling you alone can feel overwhelming. Reaching out for help is a proactive first step in starting to feel better. I provide a welcoming, safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space to talk about what is troubling you. It is very natural to feel nervous about coming to counselling for the first time. I understand and never lose sight of this. I offer a complimentary 20-minute introductory telephone consultation. Some new clients prefer to book their first appointment without a call. It about what feels best to you.

Having someone to help unravel our fears and anxieties in an accepting, non judgemental environment can be life changing.
As an integrative practitioner I call upon a range of concepts and therapeutic tools to help clients deal with dysfunctional ways of feeling, behaving and living. My principle belief is that despite the problems we encounter, we all have the capacity for change. sometimes this is hard to visualise, difficult to accept. problems can appear overwhelming and insurmountable. By working in collaboration with clients, as partner's with a common purpose, unhealthy rules for living and core beliefs can be challenged, this can lead clients to happier more fulfilling ways of being that reach into our untapped potential.

I explore women's issues in the context of their life, helping them be heard and find their own narrative and voice.
As an experienced counsellor and coach my goal is to create a safe space in which the client can talk openly and honestly, making space for healing but also for change. My approach integrates a person centred model with more active processes of change, solution based interventions and strategies to create autonomy and empowerment in the client's life.

I am a Solution Focused Specialist, and have practiced in this way since 2004. I also have a Master's Degree in this approach (2008).

Life can be challenging at times, and it’s my role to help ease some of that pressure.
Your time with me is dedicated to you. It’s an opportunity for you to share whatever is on your heart and mind, whether it’s emotional pain, confusion, or unresolved issues. Together, we will explore how the mind and body show signs of distress such as indecision, confusion, unresolved issues, feeling overwhelmed by toxic relationships or unhealthy dynamics. By exploring these feelings and patterns, we can develop a better understanding of ourselves and how to respond more effectively in the future.

Life Coaching Counsellors

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
