My Story

I worked for many years as a Sports Therapist.

Throughout my work, I recognised that mental health was becoming a more integral part of my practice, I found myself developing a deep interest in mental health and the effects it can have on an person, not just mentally, but also the physical impact it has on individuals.

Finding myself at a point that steered me to re-evaluate my life, it was these difficulties and life experiences that inspired me to commence my own journey to become a therapeutic counsellor.

​

When an individual reaches out to ask for support, that's exactly what I provide, a supportive safe space for you to explore your feelings and emotions.

Although Person-centered therapy is my core modality, I take an integrative approach in my work, this is to ensure that each individual receives the best possible outcome through our work together, I do this with Solution focused brief therapy and CBT .

Training in person-centred, CBT, solution focused and relationship therapy, creates a flexible approach to sessions , adopting a neuro-affirmiung approach to help support your individual needs.

​

I am committed to providing compassionate and professional care to all my clients.

I am a proud member of  the NCPS, the National Counselling and Psychotherapy society, this means the training I have taken is robust and to the highest of  standard​s.
