Person-centred/humanistic counsellorAbout Me
Why do I feel like this?
Feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to begin is entirely normal. It can be frustrating and disheartening not having the answer to this question.
Or even more so if you know why but still can’t seem to shake it!
What is Counselling?
Counselling provides a safe, non-judgemental, and confidential space to explore these feelings.
Together, we can work to:
- Reduce anxiety and depression.
- Identify triggers and patterns impacting your life.
- Develop practical tools to help you cope in the present moment.
- Understand the impact of the past on how you feel now.
- Set goals for moving forward.
My Approach:
I understand counselling is a unique journey for each individual and a process.
Progress and positive change can take many shapes and forms.
I tailor my approach depending on your unique needs. Working at your pace while gently challenging you toward growth.
Below are some examples where counselling can help:
- Improve your relationship with yourself and others.
- Gain clarity of thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.
- Feel more in control and less on auto-pilot.
- Experience reduced anxiety and increased motivation.
- Re-engage in activities that bring you joy and hope.
- Discover healthy ways to manage overwhelming feelings.
- Learn to process past trauma.
- Understand yourself more deeply.
Building a Trusting Relationship:
Building trust takes time, and I understand the importance of feeling comfortable and safe.
I bring with me a decade of experience and compassion, to support you through life's challenges.
How Do I Start?
I offer a free 30-minute introductory session by phone or video.
