Transactional Analysis
I became a counsellor because I really wanted to help people understand themselves and realise that there is nothing wrong with them, but work with what happened to them. I found Transactional Analysis and realised this modality suited me to help my clients.
You don’t have to be alone; we can work together at your own pace, with no judgement, and this is your time to be seen and heard. We can get to know each other first and build up a therapeutic relationship. You can talk about what you feel safe to talk about, and there is no rush or pressure.
This is a safe place for you.
To take care of my own mental health, I like to go to Zumba twice a week and yoga once a week. I also enjoy going to Breathwork workshops.
I've wanted to be a counsellor since I was in sixth form. I was always the listening ear.
If you're nervous about starting Counselling, know that I'm not here to judge. We can work at your pace; there is no pressure.
To take care of my own mental health, I like to run. I'm a member of several running clubs and regularly take part in races.

Specialising in Person-Centred therapy
I have been working in the fields of counselling and voluntary work for five years. Through my voluntary work, I became passionate about furthering my professional development and working with trauma within the community.
I have learned that trauma is experienced differently by each individual and can impact every aspect of a person's life.
We are all unique individuals who see and experience life events differently, and these experiences can affect every aspect of our lives. Entering counselling changed my life.

When I thought the world was ending and I was beyond all hope, many amazing people helped me find a strength within myself that I never knew I had. Their support inspired me to empower others and help them through their darkest hours.
From day one, I strive to create a space focused on empowering my clients. This is a judgement-free environment where they can discuss whatever is on their minds.
Clients guide the therapy, not me. My role is to provide guidance and support, while recognising that they are the experts in their own lives and therapy journeys. It is not my place to tell people how to think or feel; my focus is on empowerment, respect, and collaboration—never control.

My own past trauma and the need to help others inspired me to become a counsellor.
I have been seeing my own counsellor for around a year and a half. I also like to talk to my friends and family, go for long walks and meditate.
To create a safe environment for my clients, I make sure the space is a nice place to be in. I show them unconditional positive regard, empathy, and create a judgment-free zone.
If someone were considering counselling, my advice is that, although it may feel scary, try to push yourself to go. Be patient with yourself. It may not feel like it is helping at first, but after a few sessions and possibly without realising it we can help you to feel better.
Having my own counselling inspired me to study counselling. I found talking through my problems super helpful and wanted to help others to talk through their issues.
To take care of my own mental health, the first thing I do is put on my ‘game face’. This helps me to feel more confident for the day ahead no matter how I’m feeling.
To anyone struggling with their mental health, I’d say that how you’re feeling is valid!
