At Phoenix Counselling 1814, I provide trauma‑informed, culturally responsive counselling for people navigating experiences such as childhood sexual abuse, domestic abuse, bereavement, identity‑based harm, and the emotional impact of inequality and discrimination.
My work is grounded in the belief that healing is possible when people are met with compassion, cultural understanding, and a therapeutic relationship built on safety and trust. My approach integrates trauma theory, intersectionality, and cultural humility, recognising that our identities and histories shape how we experience the world — and how we heal.
Whether you are seeking support for trauma, navigating a life transition, or simply wanting a space to reconnect with yourself, my role is to walk alongside you. Together, we create a space where your voice is centred, your story is honoured, and your healing is supported at your pace.

I work with clients who may be struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression and PTSD. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand and collaborate to create a plan to address them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Integrative Counselling, i.e. a mixture of the different types of therapy. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide together the most appropriate ways to help you make progress.
