My approach to counselling is straightforward and uncomplicated. I provide a safe, calm and non-judgemental environment for people to talk about any difficulties, issues or challenges they are dealing with – working at the client’s pace, no rush, no pressure.

Being an integrative counsellor means that I use elements from various therapeutic approaches so I can adapt sessions to best support the needs, personality and issues of each individual client. For some clients – adolescents in particular – that may involve using creative techniques or visual tools.

An integrative approach encourages conversations around thoughts, emotions, the past and present. Clients are free to talk about whatever matters most to them or is on their mind and without restriction.

I welcome and work with people of all ages, backgrounds, identities and genders and have experience of supporting neurodiverse individuals with ADHD and autism.
