• Have suffered grief or loss that is affecting you in negative ways

Experiencing one of any of these can feel overwhelming and lead to struggles that are difficult to manage in and amongst our daily lives. I would like to offer you an opportunity to explore what is happening for you in a safe and secure environment

I trained as a therapist to support people live happy and healthy lives and not to feel shackled by experiences and situations that can prevent them from enjoying the here and now and looking forwards to a happy future.

We live for an average of 3 billion seconds, I would like to support everyone I work with use the time in the best possible way free from worry, negative thoughts and experiences that may be impacting them living the life they want to live.

I work as an integrative Therapist. This means that I am trained in the core perspective of Person-Centred practice and include my training in Psychology and other psychological therapies to incorporate exploration of individuals cognitive processes, which can be particularly helpful when working with people who have a neuro diversity diagnosis or who are seeking further understanding of their personal lived experiences.

I adapt and use other theories to meet my clients’ needs’ including Compassion and Dialectic approaches elements of psychology and Existential psychotherapy. Clients can expect an opportunity and space to use to explore their experiences in depth. I will provide the certainty that I will work along with them to gain understanding of the effects of their experiences and to work out how to improve their mental and emotional wellbeing.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
