About me

I've been practicing as a counsellor in the UK for over 5 years. During this time, I've worked for the NHS, charities, and schools. In 2020, I created my private counselling practice, aiming to make counselling as accessible as possible by offering flexible and remote sessions. I am able to work with adults of all ages, but specialise in counselling young people and adults between the ages of 18 and 35.   I am an integrative counsellor, which means I use different techniques to best suit your needs. I work in a trauma-informed, client-centred way and also draw on CBT, systemic and psychodynamic approaches. I can support you to heal from childhood trauma, improve self-worth, navigate relationship challenges, and better tolerate difficult or distressing emotions. I can also help you to explore, understand, and find tools to cope with anxiety, stress, anger, and low mood. I am a neurodivergent-affirming counsellor and have a particular interest in supporting clients with ADHD and ASD, especially those adjusting to late diagnosis or feeling that they may be experiencing challenges in relationships or at work in connection to being neurodivergent.  To me, the relationship between counsellor and client is the most important part of counselling. I will therefore make sure you feel comfortable and safe in our sessions. I like to work with you to decide what your goals for counselling are and the approach and different techniques we might use. I always encourage you to tell me if something isn't feeling like the right fit for you.  I can also be flexible with how often you would like counselling and offer weekly, fortnightly, monthly, and 'as and when'/single sessions. Counselling is extremely personal and all counsellors are different, so it's normal to not get along with every counsellor you speak to. Please get in touch with any questions you have or to arrange an initial session to see if you feel you could work with me.
