Are you an adult, a young person, or a child? Do you feel like you need more confidence, greater self-esteem, or more fulfilling relationships? Are you looking for mental health support and coping strategies to manage anxiety or navigate life with a neurodivergent mind? Perhaps you’re facing challenges at school or work, or dealing with the pain of grief after the loss of a loved one or a cherished pet. You might be struggling to express your emotions, living with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, or feeling held back by phobias you’d like to overcome. Whatever you’re facing, you’re not alone—and support is here for you.
As a qualified integrative counsellor, I tailor therapy to suit your unique needs, drawing from approaches like CBT, Gestalt, and person-centred therapy. I offer a warm, supportive space where we can explore your challenges together. For those who find words difficult, I use creative interventions such as Sand Tray Therapy.
Whether you’re facing anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, relationship issues, or just feeling overwhelmed, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’m here to walk beside you. Let’s plant the seeds of change together. Get in touch to book a session or learn more about how I can support you or your child.

I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety or depression. During our initial sessions, we delve together into the issue at hand and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you to get your life back. Most clients regardless of their age see a gradual lifting of symptoms within a few sessions and sustained improvement thereafter.
