I am a fully qualified counsellor and psychotherapist with extensive training in psychodynamic, gestalt, person-centred, integrative, and relational psychotherapy.

I understand that seeking counselling can feel like a big step, especially when you're feeling overwhelmed or lost. It’s important to find the right person to talk to — someone who listens without judgment, offers a safe space, and helps you feel supported.

• Anxiety, depression, and stress
• Relationship challenges
• Loss, grief, and bereavement
• Low self-esteem and confidence
• Trauma and past experiences that impact the present
• Life transitions, identity, and self-exploration

I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to help you uncover the answers and insights within you, to understand your emotions, patterns, and relationships. I take an integrative approach and adapt the work to your individual needs. Whether you’re looking for short-term counselling or deeper long-term therapy, I’m here to help.

I offer a confidential, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can be yourself. You can talk about anything that’s troubling you — whether you’re dealing with long-term emotional pain or a recent life event that’s left you feeling unsettled. Our work together will help you feel more grounded, resilient, and connected with yourself.

Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, but you don’t have to go through this alone. Whether you’re at a crossroads in life, struggling with emotional challenges, or simply need a space to talk and feel heard, I’m here for you. 

Reach out today for an initial consultation, and let’s explore how we can work together to support your healing journey. You deserve to feel better, and I’m here to help you get there.
