ABOUT
I provide an empathetic, safe space to explore issues that may affect your whole life experience. I believe that the client-therapist relationship is the key to effective counselling. Finding acceptance of yourself may feel difficult but I know that with help and encouragement, this can be possible. Past experiences may affect how you deal with problems in the present and I can help you in finding a way to move forward.
​
I have an integrative, person-centred approach that uses varied models of humanistic therapy letting you lead the process. I provide a place for the exploration of difficult emotions and will support you in understanding that you have the tools that will ultimately help you continue on your journey.
​
My background is in the arts-heritage sector, having started out as a carpenter-joiner. I live in a neuro-divergent household and have dyslexia myself, so I understand the struggles people may encounter in the education system and more broadly.
​
I am an Integrative Counsellor, and a registered member of the BACP. I have previous experience in NHS settings, having completed the Foundation Psychotherapy year at the Minster Centre and Diploma in Integrative Counselling at The Awareness Centre. I continue to develop my practice through regular supervision and professional training.
