People come when something isn’t sitting right. Anxiety, overthinking, feeling on edge. Relationships can feel stuck or go round in the same loops. If you’re neurodivergent, everyday things can take more effort than expected. I work with individuals and couples. With individuals, we slow things down and look at what’s actually happening day to day. With couples, I use the Gottman Method, focusing on communication and conflict. I’m a BACP accredited integrative counsellor, trained to Level 6 in supervision and Level 4 in counselling, and I also work as a counselling tutor.
I’m an integrative counsellor with over ten years of experience in mental health. I adapt my approach to what works best for you, whether that’s talking things through, exploring patterns, or finding practical coping tools. I work with adults around trauma, domestic abuse, personality difficulties and neurodivergence.
I’m a BACP-accredited Counsellor/Supervisor with CPCAB qualifications in Therapeutic Supervision (Level 6) and Therapeutic Counselling (Level 4). Alongside my counselling, I teach counselling as a tutor and run training that helps others develop their skills.
