My Approach
There may be different reasons why you may be looking for counselling. Whether you are looking to improve your relationships, navigate life changes and choices, develop confidence in yourself, or deal with emotional distress, I offer a supportive space to help you gain clarity and improve your quality of life through an integrative approach.
I have a gentle, mindful and compassionate approach. I work at your pace and adapt my approach to suit you, drawing on humanistic, relational, and creative ways of working.
As a counsellor, art counsellor, and musician, I bring creativity into the therapeutic process when it feels helpful and appropriate for you. This may include conversation and self-reflection, mindfulness, immersive techniques, family constellations, as well as creative tools such as writing, movement, or voice work, to support exploration and open up to new possibilities.
