I am an integrative counsellor offering talking therapy focused on you and your needs.

Sometimes this will mean providing a safe place to openly discuss your concerns and difficulties without judgement and sometimes this will be providing solutions and guidance around practical elements to help overcome your concerns and difficulties, depending on what best suits your needs.

I work with children, young people, adults and couples across a range of presenting issues.

Presenting issues, that span all age ranges I work with, include:

- Anxiety/Worry

- Low Mood, Depression and Low Motivation

- Emotional Regulation and Distress Tolerance

- Self-Esteem and Confidence

- Family Communication and Break downs

- Experienced abuse (all types: physical, emotional, mental, sexual, neglect, and financial)

- Suspected or diagnosed Autism, ADHD or other Neurodiversity Concerns

- LGBTQAI+ including Gender and Sexual Identity Concerns

- Bereavement and Loss

- Relationship Difficulties

- Self-Harm and Suicidal Thoughts

- Addiction

- Work Issues or Work Life Balancing

- Traumatic Childhood Experiences

- Domestic Violence

Children & Young People

- Transition to High School

- Emotional Based School Avoidance

- Therapeutic Play

- Creative Interventions

- Young Carers

- Navigating Transition into Adulthood

- Student Issues and Exam Stress

Adults & Couples

- Parenthood - expecting a child or already having children

- Navigating children who are struggling mentally

- Infidelity 

Sessions take place online or in person. 

All assessment sessions (first session included) will take place online. 

Following this if in person is wanted the address will be shared. 

I offer a free introduction call which usually lasts around 15 minutes. This call is to gather a sense of each other, to gain basic information from yourself and to discuss whether or not we are the right therapeutic match and if our availability matches.

We would then arrange a first session which would take place online, where we will go over the counselling contract and gain a deeper understanding of your concerns and background. 

Providing we are a good match and I can meet your needs we would continue to have sessions at a frequency that works best for you and will review regularly.
