I'm a fully qualified, pre-accredited counsellor with the IACP. My approach to therapy is rooted in existential-humanistic / person-centred traditions. I'm passionate about helping you find personal meaning, authenticity and self compassion in your life. I have worked with clients in the not-for-profit sector since 2019, with a wide range of issues. I have specific interest and experience in the areas of anxiety, depression, self esteem, grief, work related stress, relationship issues, loss of meaning / direction in life, personal development, and COVID-19 related mental health issues.
