When your thoughts won’t give you a moment’s peace—overthinking, analysing everything, or imagining the worst—it can feel exhausting, like you’re stuck on a hamster wheel you can’t get off. You might feel caught in self-doubt, weighed down by expectations, or constantly trying to make sense of everything in your head.
I offer a friendly, down-to-earth space where you can talk openly, reflect, and feel supported. Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or clinical—it’s simply a place for you to be heard and to start making sense of things, at your own pace.
I work with a range of issues, including:
• Anxiety and feeling on edge
• Low self-confidence and self-esteem
• Bereavement and loss
• Depression and low mood
• Life changes and transitions
My approach blends person-centred counselling (giving you space to talk and explore things at your own pace) with CBT techniques, which can help you understand and manage the patterns between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.
We’ll work together in a way that feels right for you.
