Hey there, I get it – sifting through therapist profiles can be a bit of a maze, so I’ll try my best to keep this simple. I'm a qualified counsellor who's worn a few different hats in the field of well-being. I worked in the corporate world of occupational health for over 5 years, I’ve worked for charities, and now I'm here as a private therapist.

My approach is friendly, and down-to-earth. Yes, I’m a therapist, but I am, first and foremost, a fellow human being. I've faced my own life's challenges, and I understand the vulnerability that comes with seeking help. Life can throw us some curveballs, and I'm here to help you navigate them.

I will tailor the sessions to your individual needs, but one thing is a given - I’ll provide you with a private and judgment-free space to talk about whatever's on your mind. You may be experiencing depression, anxiety, low self-confidence, bereavement, or something completely different. You may not know what is wrong at this point; sometimes it is more of a feeling that something isn’t quite right. This is something that we can work through together, exploring your feelings to work out what is going on inside. It may be that you require a more practical approach, and in this case, I can offer strategies to deal with issues like worry, overthinking, lousy sleep, and low motivation. We'll work together to bring about some positive changes in your life.

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.
