Autism Counselling in Cardiff
I have experience providing long term and short term counselling in a mental health service and in private practice, working with clients presenting with a wide range of concerns and experiencing a variety of issues which include depression, anxiety, ADHD, autism, social anxiety, post traumatic stress, general anxiety disorder, relationship problems, loss and bereavement, loneliness and isolation, life changing events, family issues, work stress, addiction, confidence and self-esteem issues.
I appreciate life has its obstacles and that change can be overwhelming. My core belief is that we all experience the world in a unique way which impacts on our reactions to what we are faced with. The person centred approach I offer will help you to explore your issues and together we will look at your life experiences and how they have impacted on you.

I also specialise in autism and neuro-divergence, anxiety, depression and mindfulness and always in a collaborative and empathic relationship.
What informs my practice is a concern for respecting and valuing difference and the importance of caring communication in all relationships. We work together to bring about your own awareness of what needs to change in order move on in your life. Sometimes we are overwhelmed at what is happening to us, or we feel we have no control over our own lives. We can explore new ways of understanding ourselves and our relationships so that we can influence or even change our future. My approach is to work in collaboration with you. I am not the expert in your life, you are, but we can both bring our knowledges and expertise into the relation

I work with children, young people and their families, often when things are feeling difficult or overwhelming. Some of the reasons families have worked with me include: support to understand and manage feelings of anxiety, depression or frustration; difficulties with emotion-regulation; and difficulties within family relationships, including parent-infant and parent-child relationships.

I specialize in supporting individuals with ADHD, ASD, and OCD who may experience anxiety, overwhelm, burnout, or struggle with connection.
I take an integrative approach under a pluralistic philosophy which means I fit the therapy to you, rather than trying to fit you into therapy. This approach naturally supports the individual attention neurodivergent individuals need. I am also familiar with those affected by Religious/Spiritual Abuse.

I am genuinely passionate about helping people find their way through difficult times; I can work with a wide range of issues, but have a lot of experience with relationships, trauma, and autism.
Guided by the core values of Transactional Analysis, the values of equality and belief that everybody has the capacity to reflect, grow and create change in their lives, my approach is rooted in the belief that relationships can heal what at times may feel broken. The therapeutic relationship is at the heart, founded on non-judgment and compassion.

I'm a counsellor & psychotherapist who believes that each person has the capacity for personal growth and self-healing. My role is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your true potential. Whilst working with a range of issues including anxiety, depression, loss, trauma & low self esteem, I have noticed that people's behaviours and responses no longer support them in their lives and result in many unwelcome feelings. Together, we will create the space for you to process what has become difficult, at a pace that is right for you, helping to find meaning and purpose as you navigate life's challenges.

Crossing the threshold and choosing to have therapy is not always easy. It can evoke many different feelings and thoughts; there may part of you that believes you should be able to work things out on your own. However at times having support and a reflective space to explore and talk confidentially about what is troubling you, can be helpful. Before committing to therapy, I will invite you to an initial 50 minute consultation. This will be an opportunity to explore what brings you to therapy and to discuss any questions or concerns you may have, and we can think about the possibility of working together.

I have specific training in Family Systems, Couples, Teens, Trauma, Abuse, Narcissism, Autism, ADHD & Self Harm/Risk.
Deep down, you know- it's not love, it’s control. You deserve freedom. You deserve safety. It’s time to name it, feel it, and move the fuck on. If you’re done second-guessing yourself, people-pleasing, and tolerating other people’s bullshit, here’s the truth: you’re not the problem... trauma is. I work online with teens, adults, and couples who are done doubting themselves after toxic, abusive, or narcissistic relationships... whether with a partner, ex, or family member.
I also work with couples where past trauma fuels repeated conflict & miscommunication. It’s time to find your voice and start living on your own damn terms.

I also take a special interest in ADHD and Autism.
I work as an integrative trained counsellor. This means I have trained with the influences of different forms of counselling and therapeutic input. I like this way of working as it allows me to work with you in a holistic and flexible manner depending on what you need. I believe no one person is the same so this allows me to meet you where you're at and join you on your journey.
I offer a 20 minutes free introductory chat online to see if we’d be a good fit and how I can best support you, after this I offer weekly online 50 minutes sessions. After our first six sessions we can review any adaptations to your needs.
