About me

I am an integrative counsellor which means I adapt my practice to meet your needs. I am trained initially in Person Centred practice and then where necessary, draw on relative theories to make sense of your journey. With current work also including working with a company specialising in trauma aftercare.

As your therapist I will facilitate you on your journey to change, self discovery and healing.

My background is mainly in care (people of all ages and animals through Veterinary Nursing.) I have worked with both young people and adults in care and with disabilities, I have also got experience of working with mental ill health and neurodivergence. My counselling profession is where I can be true to my values and apply my natural yet professional stance with empathy, compassion and transparency.

I will not diagnose you or tell you what you should do, I am here to provide a safe space for you to open up and explore anything you may want to. You lead the way. I am here to help you understand yourself better and be with you. By working together there may be ways we can discover any interventions which may help you along your way
