Hi, I’m an integrative counsellor offering a warm, compassionate space where you can explore whatever is bringing you to counselling at your own pace. I work collaboratively and flexibly, tailoring each session to your individual needs. Depending on what supports you best, this may include creative approaches, mindfulness, somatic awareness, and where appropriate, Christian spirituality, alongside elements of CBT, person-centred, and psychodynamic counselling.

Life can feel overwhelming at times, and our past and present experiences can deeply affect how we think, feel, relate to others, and even how we experience our bodies. These patterns are not always within our conscious awareness, yet they can shape our sense of self and our relationships. I believe counselling offers the opportunity to develop greater understanding and self-compassion. When this exploration takes place within a safe, respectful, and trusting therapeutic relationship, meaningful change becomes possible.

After a long career in the education sector, I trained in counselling and have been in practice since 2022. I work with adults experiencing difficulties related to ADHD, autism, trauma, anxiety, depression, loss, stress, and personal growth. I bring curiosity, empathy, and a strong ethical foundation to my work, and I value creating a space where you can feel heard, accepted, and supported.

Outside of my work, I enjoy knitting and sewing projects, reading, and cooking for family and friends small creative pleasures that help me stay grounded. If you’re considering counselling, I invite you to get in touch to see whether we might work well together
