Counsellor & Psychotherapist (MBACP)

Life can at times feel too much and we can get lost in the tide of our thoughts and emotions, however I know from personal experience just how beneficial talking to someone who is trained to actively listen can be.

I see my role as a facilitator, whereby I use my training, life experience and intuition to help guide you. In this way I support you to know what it means to have lived your life, helping you make meaning out of your personal encounters and interactions with others and the world. I work with understanding what matters to you, providing you the opportunity to recognise your innate values so that you can identify the choices that align best with who you are and the direction you want to take.

I am committed to encouraging the autonomy of those I work with, helping you cultivate a better understanding of your past and present experiences. I believe this insight can develop the capacity and potential to better connect, respond and attune with others and the world around you.

Whether you are coming with a here and now event or you want to explore some historical parts of yourself that may be interfering with your present, I work with an empathetic and non judgemental attitude fostered through a relational based approach. Having trained as an Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist I am able to utilise a range of skills and knowledge to provide a more nuanced understanding in addressing your individual needs.

I have worked with issues around healthy communication, anxiety, depression, anger, understanding and implementing boundaries, suicidal thoughts and I have a particular interest in working with those that have endured adverse childhood experiences (ACES) and relational trauma.
