About me and my therapy practice

I am a highly sensitive, empathic counsellor. I am interested in how I can work best with you as the unique person you are. I offer a safe, confidential place to discover your inner resources and find greater fulfilment in your life. 

By challenging the cycles we get stuck in, uncovering the blocks and exploring your experiences, thoughts and feelings in more depth, I can help you to find new perspectives from within. 

I have training and experience in working with neuro-divergent clients and appreciate how this difference is a gift as well as how it can bring challenge. I welcome clients from all genders, sexualities, ethnicities, ages, abilities, faiths or backgrounds. 

I have experience working with a wide range of difficulties such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, trauma, loss and grief, bereavement, dissociative disorders, identity issues, self esteem, domestic abuse.  


Practice description

I work from a non-directive, person-centred approach which allows my clients to find their own path, as I emotionally support and empower them along their journey.

My first session

I offer an initial session to see how we fit together. In this session, I run through the welcome letter I would have emailed you. This is an opportunity to explain anything or answer any questions you may have. 

I then ask some questions to find out a bit more about your background and personal history. 

For the remainder of the session, we would talk from wherever you would like to start. 

I will let you know when we are nearing the end of the time we have and check in to see how it has been for you. If we feel we will work well together, I usually offer a weekly session with an open-ended agreement, or if you would prefer I can work to a pre-arranged number of sessions.

Abuse, ADD / ADHD, Anxiety, Autism spectrum, Bereavement, Cancer, Child related issues, Chronic fatigue syndrome / ME, Cultural issues, Depression, Disability, Health related issues, Identity issues, Infertility, LGBTQ+ counselling, Loss, Menopause, Mood disorder, Neurodiversity, Personal development, Phobias, Pregnancy related issues, Relationships, Self esteem, Sexual identity, Sexuality, Spirituality, Stress, Trauma, Vegan allied, Women's issues
