What can you expect from counselling with me?
My way of working
Taking the first step into therapy can feel daunting - you know something needs to change, but it’s hard to know where to begin. That’s where I come in.
I offer integrative counselling: a fancy way of saying I draw from different therapeutic approaches and tailor them to you. I work from a person-centred foundation (you’re the expert on your life), and weave in ideas from narrative therapy, existential thinking, and solution-focused techniques, depending on what you need most. Whether you’re wanting to make sense of the past, navigate the chaos of the now, or figure out what’s next, we’ll find a way forward - together.
Therapy with me feels like a space where you can show up exactly as you are - messy, curious, quiet, angry, or unsure - without pressure to be anything else. It’s a collaborative process; I’m not here to “fix” you, but to walk alongside you as you uncover your own clarity, insight, and strength. Along the way, you can expect the occasional metaphor, a gentle challenge when it’s needed, and yes - even a bit of humour, because healing doesn’t have to be heavy all the time.
I work with people across a broad range of issues, but I specialise in supporting folks who are:
Grappling with anxiety (including burnout or relentless perfectionism)
Impacted by relationship infidelity or affairs, whatever that impact may be
Living with the echoes of trauma, abuse, or adverse childhood experiences
Wrestling with low self-worth or an internal critic that just won’t quit
Together, we’ll explore your story - past, present, and future - and work towards reconnecting you with your own sense of worthiness, calm, and choice. You can move forward, even if it doesn’t feel like it yet.
