It can seem like the hardest thing to do to access counselling, but it can be life changing if you take that first step. You may not be entirely clear on what you want but just have a feeling that things don't feel right and you have decided that you want to understand what, why and how to refocus and live the life you feel is best for you. Or perhaps you are very aware of a struggle with difficulties, which may already be formally diagnosed by another professional, and you want to regain some control instead of feeling that these issues take over. I can support people in achieving their goals wherever they are in their journey.

Are you feeling lost after grief or trauma, caught in emotional highs and lows, or struggling with motivation or a sense of purpose? Maybe you find yourself repeating patterns in relationships or battling imposter feelings. You might also be navigating life as a neurodivergent person in a world that isn’t always designed for the way you think or feel. Whatever brings you here, you don’t have to face it alone. Together, we’ll make sense of what’s happening, process painful experiences, and build the skills and self-compassion to move toward a life that feels meaningful and grounded in what truly matters to you.

Hi, I’m Andrea. Many people contact me when anxiety or depression start to take over — constant worry, overthinking, feeling on edge, struggling to switch off, or feeling overwhelmed by everyday life. When joy fades and everything feels like “too much,” it can be hard to know where to turn. Your experiences matter and I hold space for all of it — but therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy the whole way through. It can also be a genuinely good experience, a steady, supportive place to feel lighter, clearer and more yourself again. I aim to offer a calm, down‑to‑earth space where you can breathe, feel understood and find your way.

I work with people who struggle with people-pleasing, self-doubt, and relationship anxiety. You might worry about disappointing others, replay conversations in your mind, or feel guilty for putting your own needs first. Over time, people-pleasing can leave you feeling exhausted, resentful, and disconnected from what you truly want. Therapy offers a space to understand where these patterns began and how they shape your relationships today. Together we can explore your needs, build confidence in expressing them, and practise setting healthier boundaries so you can feel more grounded, secure, and comfortable being yourself.

Codependency Counsellors
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.

What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.

How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.

What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
