Hello, and welcome â€” I’m so glad you’re here.

I know only too well how life can sometimes feel terribly challenging, sad and overwhelming. This is why I take great care in offering a gentle and supportive space where you don’t have to go through things alone.

I was privileged to complete my training hours at SAASSBMK and have gained extensive experience working with survivors of sexual abuse, sexual assault, and domestic violence.

I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to access counselling, regardless of their financial situation. With this in mind, I offer reduced rates for counsellors in training, emergency service workers, students and those on low incomes. My aim is to make therapy as accessible and supportive as possible for those who may benefit from it most.

I can offer a warm and compassionate space where you can feel safe to share your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement. 

My person-centred approach means that I will meet you with empathy, acceptance, and authenticity, walking alongside you as you explore what matters most to you. 

I believe that each person has the capacity for growth and healing, and that counselling can provide the support needed to reconnect with your own inner strengths.

Together, we can gently work through the challenges you may be facing, whether that’s anxiety, low self-esteem, loss, low mood or simply feeling stuck.

At your own pace, we will create space for reflection, understanding, self-discovery and hope.

Deciding to begin counselling can be a significant step, and it’s important that you find the right therapist for you. To help with this, I offer a free 15-minute initial telephone consultation. This call provides an opportunity to discuss your needs, learn more about my approach, and explore whether we might work well together.

If, after this initial consultation, you decide you would like to proceed, we can arrange your first formal counselling session at a time that suits you.
