About me

I'm an accredited counsellor with over 10 years' experience supporting adults through anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, grief, life transitions, trauma, and emotional overwhelm. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative.

I believe that lasting change comes not only from learning new coping strategies but also from understanding ourselves more deeply.

Together, we'll explore the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, helping you develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and a stronger relationship with yourself. I work at a pace that feels safe and manageable, creating a non-judgemental space where you can be yourself, explore difficult emotions, and feel supported.

Whether you're facing a specific challenge or feeling uncertain about where to begin, we'll work together to help you move towards the life you want to create.
