Becoming a counsellor felt like a natural step for me. I’ve always been curious about people - what shapes us, how we cope when life feels overwhelming, and why we sometimes get stuck in patterns that seem impossible to break. I remember at school always being called the “agony aunt” in my group of friends.

Over the years, I’ve worked with many people who look like they have it all together on the outside but are quietly struggling beneath the surface - anxious thoughts, self-doubt, and that endless loop of "What if?" questions.

As a qualified counsellor, I specialise in helping people manage anxiety and depression. My approach isn’t about “fixing” you - because you’re not broken. Instead, we’ll work together to make sense of what’s going on, untangle the thoughts that are keeping you stuck, and find practical ways to move forward.

My work is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) - a practical, evidence-based approach that is part of the "third wave" of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). ACT helps you manage challenging thoughts and emotions without getting overwhelmed by them. It focuses on building psychological flexibility, and encourages living according to your core values, empowering you to take purposeful action in your life.

I also draw from person-centred therapy, which means our work is guided by your needs, not a rigid treatment plan. Some clients want to dive deep into their emotions. Others prefer straightforward tools to cope with anxiety when it shows up in the moment. We’ll figure out what works best for you.
