Many of my clients are people who have lived with emotional or mental health challenges and are ready to find a gentler way forward. They may feel weighed down by the past, unsure how it has shaped their choices, yet hopeful for something different. What my clients long for is understanding, compassion, and a safe space to be heard without judgement. Their goals are often to accept their past with kindness, reconnect with what matters most, and create a more present, fulfilling, and balanced life.
By offering a safe space to talk and be heard, I support clients in finding greater peace and confidence. Together, we gently move from feeling stuck in the past toward looking ahead, using simple coping tools like journaling, grounding, mindful breathing, and other calming practices. I offer concessionary rates to students over the age of 18 years.
If you’re carrying the weight of past struggles or finding it hard to face the present, you don’t have to go through it alone. Together we can create a safe, supportive space where you feel truly heard and understood, and begin to gently move toward healing, self-acceptance, and a more hopeful future.

My clients have often struggled to share and understand long-term emotional issues. Appreciating how this affects mental health, I provide an empathic, non-judgement space to explore their emotions at their own pace. Considering safe, coping strategies, such as free writing and grounding techniques, we find the best way forward to create inner peace and positivity toward a better future.
