About me and my therapy practice

I offer a warm, compassionate counselling space where clients can explore whatever they’re facing at a pace that feels right for them. I’ve supported people through a wide range of life experiences, including loss and grief, anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, personal challenges, and work‑related stress.

My approach is gentle, collaborative, and grounded in respect for each person’s unique story. If someone’s experience isn’t listed, they’re still welcome to get in touch to see whether I’m the right fit for them. Inclusivity and openness are central to how I work.

I draw from CBT and Gestalt therapeutic modalities, and online/telephone counselling. This integrative foundation allows me to tailor sessions to each client, combining evidence‑based techniques with a relational, human approach.

Practice description

My practice offers a calm, supportive environment where clients can talk openly about what’s happening in their lives, whether they’re navigating grief, feeling overwhelmed, struggling with anxiety or depression, or facing challenges in relationships or at work.

I work in a collaborative, attuned way, helping clients build insight, resilience, and emotional clarity. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs, drawing on CBT and Gestalt principles to support meaningful change. I welcome adults from all backgrounds and aim to create a space that feels safe, respectful, and grounded.

My first session

I offer a free 30-minute consultation. It’s also a chance for you to get a feel for whether I’m the right fit for you and whether we can work together.

The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and explore what brings you to therapy. We’ll talk about what feels difficult right now. I may ask a few gentle assessment questions to help us understand your needs, but the session is primarily a space for you to share at your own pace. It’s also a chance for you to get a feel for my approach.
