The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.

Counselling is a talking therapy that provides a safe, confidential space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. As a trained counsellor, I offer a calm and non-judgmental presence - someone who listens deeply and helps you make sense of what you’re going through.

You may come with a specific issue you’d like to change, or simply a desire to understand yourself more fully. Together, we might reflect on how you’re feeling, explore past and present experiences, or work through tailored exercises that support emotional clarity and growth. 

What we talk about will depend on what you need - this could include:

• Feelings, emotions, or recurring thoughts
• Behaviour patterns or difficult situations
• Relationships, childhood experiences, or life transitions
• Beliefs about yourself and the world around you

My role is not to give advice or tell you what to do, but to walk alongside you as you uncover root causes, patterns of thinking, and internalised beliefs that may be shaping your sense of self. You’ll be supported to reconnect with your self-worth, develop greater self-understanding, and explore ways to cope or make meaningful changes. 

Counselling can help you:

• Express what’s been held inside
• Develop empathy and acceptance toward yourself
• Build self-trust and emotional resilience
• Let go of conditioning that tells you you're not enough

This is a space for you to be heard, understood, and gently guided toward your own insights and healing.

As an integrative Humanistic Counsellor, I place the therapeutic relationship at the heart of our work together. I focus on you as a whole person - not just the issue you bring - so we can discover what truly supports your healing and growth.

My practice is rooted in a Person-Centred approach, which means you lead the way. You set the pace, choose what to explore, and guide the direction of each session. I listen with care and respect, attuning to your experiences and perspective. This process helps you deepen your understanding of your feelings, uncover what may be happening beneath the surface, and move toward meaningful change.

I believe you hold an innate wisdom about what’s causing your pain and where you need to go. You are the expert in your own life. My role is to walk alongside you - offering a collaborative, non-directive space where empowerment and insight can naturally unfold. When helpful, I may offer gentle suggestions or practices to support your journey. Alongside humanistic principles, I draw from other therapeutic models including: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-based approaches with optional creative and expressive exercises. This integrative style allows us to explore emotional, behavioural, physiological, and spiritual dimensions - tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're seeking practical strategies, emotional clarity, or space for existential or spiritual reflection, our work together will adapt to meet you where you are.
