Welcome to my counselling practice. I offer a supportive, empathic and friendly service to individuals, couples and families. Perhaps there are particular issues causing you distress, or maybe something more subtle, an inner feeling that all is not well. Our physical and psychological health can be compromised by traumatic situations such as bullying, abuse, bereavement and family disputes. We may develop ways of coping which also cause problems, for example self-harm and addictions. I provide a non-judgmental space for whatever you wish to explore and address including your relationships, anxiety, depression and emotional distress.

A lot of the people I work with look like they’re coping. They’re reliable, capable, often the person everyone else leans on. But internally, they’re exhausted in a way they can’t quite justify to themselves. They're tired, battling insomnia, feeling stuck, anxious or stressed. I help millennials (corporates & entrepreneurs) worry less and sleep better, so that they have enough energy to perform at their best, without guilt or overwhelm. Working together, they start to feel more energised, confident, focused to drive their careers, and feeling in control. They wake up rested and refreshed so they can enjoy life more fully.

Life can be tough, and sometimes you can be overwhelmed by seemingly impossible problems. I specialise in helping adults dealing with the challenges of caring for others or who are bereaved. I also have a special focus on older clients many of whom have never had counselling before. It can be an enormous help when a trained, non-judgemental person, independent from those around you, really listens to you. My work helps you find a positive way through challenges, thoughts, and feelings. This helps you manage the complications of life which can lead to stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression if not addressed.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.

Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
