I have worked with adults and young people in short and long-term therapy for nearly 5 years. I am incredibly passionate about my work and I will bring this energy and genuine interest to our sessions. I offer sessions in person and remotely, in Chandler's Ford and Southampton.

I strongly value and prioritise co-creating a genuine and honest therapeutic relationship with my clients. This is the foundation of any work we will do together. I will endeavour to understand life and the world as YOU see it. I will never put any opinions or expectations upon you, and I welcome the full truth and weight of what you choose to share.

I will hold a safe and rock-steady space for you and the full range of your thoughts, emotions and being. We will approach your individual hopes for counselling with curiosity, compassion and courage.

Counselling with me is a collaborative, authentic and empowering journey through all the darkest and lightest places. There is always potential and hope to be found - the process is unique and distinctive every time. In this process, my role is to guide, encourage, challenge, explore, empathise and hold a space that is yours.

If you would like to see what this could look like for you, please feel free to reach out to arrange an initial conversation. This is a toe-dip and not a plunge.

I have been trained in a therapeutic approach called Integrative Humanistic counselling. My counselling practice comprises an integration of Person-Centred, Gestalt, Psychodynamic and Existential modalities, the basis of all my work rests on a relational approach, and a strong ethical focus. All of my training is accredited or recognised by a professional counselling regulatory body and I am always engaged in further learning and development from training offered by highly respected experts in my field and areas of interest.

My special areas of interest are trauma, depression, identity, neurodivergence, anxiety and all anxiety-rooted disorders, relationships/family issues, attachment and loss in all forms including abortion and estrangement. I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of issues and with a diverse clientele. Difference between us is welcomed and met with empathy and authenticity.

I also have experience working with and having the privilege of witnessing the growth and healing of people who live with severe mental health difficulties, reliance on substance use and victims of current and historical abuse.

I offer 15-minute free consultation calls to provide an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have and assess if I am the right counsellor for you.

Everything will move at a pace that is comfortable for and in agreement with you.
