Solution Based Therapy for Couples.
I support the client exploring their presenting issues, thought processes, emotions and behaviours that may not be serving them well. Collaboratively, we work through past traumas and life events, which may result in paralysing fears, anxiety, low mood and prove stressful. We work on regulating emotionally, creating new coping strategies, empowering a true sense of self, enabling self- love and self -acceptance. With grief and loss, both living loss and loss through death, we gently explore how grief is living, even though we look at what once was.

I help clients struggling with anxiety, low mood, burnout, disordered eating, and relationship or identity challenges.
You might be carrying the weight of stress, anxiety, burnout, chronic illness or struggles with an eating disorder, and despite everything you’ve tried, it still feels like an uphill battle. Maybe you've spent years coping the best way you could, holding yourself to impossible standards, listening to a relentless inner critic. It’s understandable to feel exhausted. Many of the people I work with reach a point where they’re ready for something more profound: not just coping, but healing. Together, we focus on building new ways of living that honour your strength, your story, and your need for lasting change.

This means I focus on the relationship with the client to provide support and empathy in a safe environment.
Clients come to counselling when their normal coping mechanisms are no longer working for them and they are feeling overwhelmed, confused and afraid. It may be due to anxiety in their life, stress in work or relationships, low self esteem or depression. They come looking for clarity, a sense of understanding that they are not alone in what they are feeling and perhaps for practical techniques to manage the conflicting emotions. They also want to be really listened to and not to be judged as they tell their story.

Common issues I encounter are stress, relationship difficulties, trauma, in short, past experiences affecting present circumstances.
I work best with clients who are realistic about trusting the process of psychotherapy and are therefore willing to commit to attending until they see their initial concerns relieved rather than tying themselves to a select number of appointments. It allows an eclectic approach which can lead to real insight and genuine change.

Couples Counselling
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
