I have worked with many clients with a variety of different issues to include anxiety, depression, relationship breakdown, family difficulties, work related stress, financial worries, childhood trauma, attachment difficulties, historical abuse, bereavement, loss & grief, & neurodivergent clients, to name a few.
If I feel I am not best equipped to help you with your particular concern I will always declare that & try to point you in the direction of a therapist that is. My primary aim is always your care & safety.

When we are suffering, it is common to concentrate on all that is wrong or negative in our lives. Counselling can offer a place to gently explore these negative beliefs and understand the patterns we have learned to survive in the world. Using a non-judgmental person-centred approach, I collaborate with the client to best meet their individual needs and goals.

As a therapist with a Master’s in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) I work with individuals who often feel overwhelmed by anxiety, low self-esteem, or self-doubt—even if on the outside, they seem to have it all together. You might find yourself overthinking, putting pressure on yourself to be perfect, or feeling like you’re never quite “enough.”
Sometimes, you’re not sure where these feelings come from. You may sense that old patterns, irrational thoughts, or unconscious beliefs are quietly shaping the way you see yourself and the world. You want to break free from that cycle, to feel more connected, confident, and calm.

Seeking help? It can be incredibly difficult and it takes courage. Taking the initial step can also be the most important decision you make toward feeling yourself again.
I don't believe any of us are immune to feeling lost at times. As another human being, I believe I can relate to this feeling. As a trained psychotherapist, I consider it my job to work with you in areas currently challenging you. Whether you need a space to start breaking down some of your overwhelm, or a listening ear for support, I'd be happy to hear from you.

Counselling offers you the tools necessary to bring your passions to life and let compassion, kindness and fun be part of your experience of life again. My job as your therapist is to co-operate with and enhance your journey towards wholeness. This is achieved by lovingly offering skills and experience, alongside knowledge of the terrain of personal development and creativity. I hold the assumption that people generally have the ability to understand themselves, are clever, honest, self-directed and able to solve their own problems. I'm here to support that assumption by reflecting back the light I see in you.
