People come to
counselling usually because they are experiencing distress, suffering, or
discomfort and they want to do something to help themselves.

I provide a person-centred, ethical, and trauma-informed space where you can explore issues important to you with professional support and partnership.

Each person is inherently unique, with their own goals, insights, and hopes for themselves. Our counselling sessions reflect this uniqueness, acknowledging and respecting client autonomy, self-determination, and the client's role as the expert in their own life.

 Counselling is a space of:

Exploration and
insight

Collaboration and
partnership

Safety and holding

Deep listening

Curiosity

Respect and
non-judgement

Authenticity,
genuineness, and empathy

My counselling style
is compassion-focused, person-centred, and trauma-informed. While reflective
listening underpins all sessions, I use an integrated approach depending on the
individual needs of each person.

I have a particular
interest in Compassion-Focused Therapy, and use this modality as well as
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness, Socratic questioning, and
Motivational Interviewing.
