I came to counselling through my own experience of how transformative it can feel to be truly heard.
I offer humanistic counselling, which means I believe you are the expert on your own life. I don’t see you as someone who needs to be fixed, just genuinely meet where you are at. My role isn’t to hand you answers or steer you toward a particular outcome. It’s to create a space where you can think, feel, and explore freely — at your own pace, in your own way.
I work with people navigating a wide range of experiences: anxiety, depression, low self-worth, bereavement and loss, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and the quieter struggles that can be hard to name but weigh heavily nonetheless. Many of the people I work with have spent a long time putting others first, or have never quite felt safe enough to take up space. If that resonates, you’re in the right place.
Sessions with me tend to feel unhurried and human. There’s no agenda, no clipboard, no sense that you’re being assessed. What there is, I hope, is warmth, compassion, curiosity, and a genuine commitment to walking alongside you.
In my practice, I integrate range of humanistic approaches, including Person-Centred, Gestalt and Transactional Analysis theories and methods. Because we are all different, by drawing on these approaches, I can adapt the therapy to meet your individual needs.
As a counsellor who practices yoga, I believe that nurturing the mind and body connection allows us to better understand our intuition and uncover our authentic self. This holistic approach allows us to explore our experiences more deeply and develop a stronger sense of clarity and self-awareness.
I also enjoy bringing creativity into therapy and continue to build on my skills with ongoing training. You have the option to explore these creative approaches if they feel it might be helpful for you.
