Are you someone who feels overwhelmed by past trauma, struggles with ADHD, or is navigating grief, chronic illness, anxiety or identity issues? You may feel lost, stuck, or exhausted — unsure where to begin but yearning for peace, understanding, and relief. Do you want to feel in control again, to reconnect with yourself, and to move forward without fear or shame. You are ready for change but need someone calm, supportive, and non-judgmental to walk alongside you.
As a Person-Centred Counsellor and ADHD-Certified practitioner, I offer a warm, safe space where you can be heard and understood. Together, we’ll explore your experience, build self-awareness, and work at your pace to process challenges and create meaningful change — without pressure or judgment.
You’ve already taken a big step by looking for support. Whatever you're facing, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’m here to offer a space where you can talk freely, feel safe, and begin to move forward in your own time. If it feels right, I’d be honoured to work with you.

I work in a trauma-informed, neuro-affirming, disability-aware way and my work is built around care, curiosity and consent. Wondering whether you are "struggling enough" or "too much" -you're not. Therapy with me is at your pace, no rushing, pressure or need for performance. You don't need to have a neat story or perfect words. Just be yourself.
