Services:
I offer personal therapy for adult individuals and couples. I also offer professional supervision for trainee or qualified counsellors.
Specialisms:
You may be experiencing a range of emotions and it may be difficult to make sense of them sometimes. In therapy, we will look at them and try to understand them. People I work with often describe the following feelings:
Anxiety
Anxiety is a natural human response to perceived threat,
uncertainty, or overwhelm. It can show up as racing thoughts, tension in the body, or a constant sense of unease. In counselling, we do not try to eliminate anxiety, but to understand it. We gently explore what anxiety is trying to protect us from and how it has helped us survive. With compassion, we learn to notice it without judgment, soothe the nervous system, and respond with choice rather than fear. Over time, anxiety can become a guide, not an enemy, and a signal for care, boundaries, and self-understanding.
Depression
Depression is more than feeling sad; it can feel like heaviness, emptiness, or disconnection from self and others. It often affects energy, motivation, sleep, and a sense of hope. In therapy, we approach depression with care and patience, recognising it as a meaningful response to pain, loss, or prolonged stress. Together, we gently explore its roots, reduce self-blame, and create space for feelings that may have been held inside for a long time. Through compassion, understanding, and steady support, counselling can help reconnect with meaning, self-worth, and small moments of relief and possibility.
Grief and Loss
Grief and loss are natural responses to change and endings, including the loss of a loved one, a relationship, health, identity, or hopes for the future. They can bring waves of sadness, anger, numbness, guilt, or deep longing, often arriving unexpectedly. In therapy, we offer a gentle, supportive space where grief and loss can be spoken about openly and at their own pace. There is no right way to grieve. Together, we value what has been lost, make sense of the impact and find ways to live alongside grief with compassion, meaning and with a continued connection to life.
Cultural Identity
Finding your place between different cultures, heritage, and expectations can feel like navigating a maze without a map. If you feel caught between worlds, struggling to balance who you are with where you come from, you are not alone.
I offer a warm, compassionate space where every piece of your story is valued. Together, we will explore the nuances of your cultural journey, unpack feelings of belonging or disconnection and embrace your unique background. You don’t have to compromise any part of yourself to feel like you belong - let’s work together to help you feel grounded, confident and whole in your cultural identity.
