Counselling That Fits Your Life.
I offer face to face and online counselling sessions to individuals and couples, so you can choose what feels right for you.
Counselling gives you the space to make sense of thoughts and feelings that may feel overwhelming, painful, or confusing. I provide a calm, confidential space where you can explore what’s going on, without judgement or pressure.
Together, we can begin to understand how past experiences may be affecting your present, and start working towards change that feels right for you. This process often leads to a deeper sense of self-understanding and more clarity in the way forward.
Who I Support
Anxiety - Feeling low, stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed
Bereavement - dealing with loss
Family Issues
Couples - Dealing with relationship issues
Struggling with self-harm or suicidal thoughts

Depression

Neurodiverse (including ADHD and autism)
My approach is gentle, collaborative, and tailored to your needs, whether you're facing something recent or carrying long-term struggles.
I am a qualified Counsellor offering a warm, non-judgemental and collaborative space where you can feel heard and understood.
