Taking the first step toward counselling can feel hard. Maybe you aren’t even quite sure what you are looking for, but all change starts with a single step and that is where we can start.
My primary way of working as a counsellor is building a warm, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic relationship. I know how significant it can be to feel truly seen and heard and we will develop a space where you can be completely honest about what you are experiencing. In our sessions, I bring a calm, curious, and interested presence to our work and together we will look at what is happening here and now, while gently exploring how your past experiences might be informing your present. If you aren’t quite sure what the agenda is for a session, we can work it out together. This is a dedicated time to reflect, helping you become aware of the thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that might be affecting your day-to-day life.
I offer sessions either in-person or online. I work with adults of all ages and trainees, with particular experience of young people (17 to 25) and adults navigating transitional phases. I also have experience in life coaching and my significant experience with young people is enhanced through many years of work in the education sector.
Areas I work with:
- Anxiety, stress, overwhelm
- Self esteem, confidence
- Life transitions
- Self-identity
- Loss, grief
- Relationships
- Depression, low mood
- Trauma in past experience
- Workplace issues
I offer a free 20-minute introductory session, either over the telephone or via video call. There is no obligation and is simply a chance to connect and talk about whatever you are hoping to get out of therapy.
