Thank you for visiting my website. I know that starting counselling can feel like a big step and it is important to find a therapist you can connect with, who can provide you with the support you need. I am a qualified and experienced therapist, providing therapy in a confidential, compassionate and collaborative setting. 

​

My experience working as a counsellor in the charity sector, LGBT+ community, and Education has given me the opportunity to work with adults and young people from a variety of different backgrounds and life experiences. 

 

 

My Approach

 

The integrative model I work with focuses on the importance of relationships and is based on the belief that as human beings we can grow and develop in relation to others. I combine and use several different models of counselling, which allows me to meet the needs of each individual and to work with the focus that best fits the person.

​

I see therapy as a co-operative venture between therapist and client and I endeavour to provide a warm, collaborative space for you to explore the issues that are important to you. I will seek to understand you as a whole person, connected in mind, body, spirit and heart. Through this I hope to support you in accepting and understanding yourself as a whole person, with the power and freedom to make choices.

​

My approach is empathetic, collaborative and relational. I will work on building a trusting and supportive relationship with you which will allow you to feel confident in opening up and sharing your distress, hopes and wishes. We will work together at a pace that suits you. If it's useful we can use creative approaches like drawing or writing.

​

I will begin by offering you an initial phone call where we can discuss your needs and how we could work together. When we first meet in person or online we can build on this initial conversation and continue to talk through your concerns and how I can support you. As we continue to meet regularly (weekly for 50min per session), we will continue to develop a trusting relationship and co-create a space where you can explore, express, change and grow.
