MBACP · Registered Counsellor
Who I work with
Teachers, school staff, and people navigating life’s harder stretches.
Individuals
Low mood, confidence, loss, relationship difficulties, peri-menopause, limerence, and the quiet weight of life not going the way you hoped.
Schools
Whole-staff wellbeing workshops and discounted 1:1 sessions for schools booking blocks of ten or more.
My approach
Warm, collaborative, gently challenging.
I’m an integrative counsellor, blending Gestalt and Psychodynamic therapy with elements of Person-Centred and CBT. Rather than apply a fixed method, I adapt the work to meet you where you are — combining in-depth emotional exploration with practical tools for change.
Expect humour, compassion, and real human connection. Counselling doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time; moments of lightness can be just as healing.
