About me

I am an experienced counsellor, clinical supervisor, and counselling manager at a local counselling charity. I am also a parent, sister, and wife; roles that enrich my life and inspire me in the work I do in supporting others.

​

I have a particular interests in working with teenagers, parents, neurodivergence and women navigating chronic health conditions and life transitions. Through my professional and lived experiences , I understand the challenges that can arise when trying to make sense of ourselves and our relationships with others, particularly during important stages of life.

 

My experience of working in a variety of settings, including schools, has enabled me the privilege of supporting children, young people and adults navigating complex emotional, mental, and social challenges. I have seen first-hand the power of a compassionate and human approach to helping people overcome obstacles, find resilience, and make positive changes in their lives.

​

I’m deeply committed to creating a space where every client feels heard, supported, and empowered. If you feel ready to talk about it, I am here to listen and support you with empathy, flexibility and care.

My Approach

I offer a compassionate, person-centred approach to therapy, grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your own life. Our work together will be relational and collaborative, a space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, experiences, hopes and potential, at your own pace.

 

I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities, including counselling, coaching, and creative practices, tailoring our sessions to meet your individual needs and preferences. My approach is holistic, meaning I consider all aspects of your well-being; emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual. Recognising the interconnectedness of your experiences.

 

I am also trauma-informed, which means I am sensitive to the impact of past traumas and committed to fostering safety, trust, and empowerment throughout our work together.
