I’m a humanistic practitioner who is deeply passionate about humans! It’s truly a privilege to hear the diverse stories that make us us. I’ve personally found healing to be the biggest adventure of my life so far—and the best decision I’ve ever made. This work is truly life-changing, and I would be a completely different person without it. It’s now my mission to share this transformational work with others.
Life can bring many challenges, and we can often get stuck without always knowing why or how, as much of what causes our troubles can be subconscious. We often carry a lot of unhelpful narratives, shame, and expectations from life—but therapy can be extremely powerful in helping you work through whatever is coming up for you, in a supportive environment, and in making the unconscious conscious.
I work from a person-centred base, which means I believe every person has an innate desire to self-actualise—to move towards their own unique solutions based on their own unique experiences. You are the expert of your story, and my job is to support you in gaining a deeper sense of yourself and the world from different perspectives.
I’ve also worked with clients as a life coach, providing a more goal-oriented approach. My therapeutic style is warm and inquisitive, and it’s my priority to provide a safe, inclusive, dedicated, and nurturing environment for you to explore your emotions. I’m genuinely curious and interested in you and your story!
So whether you need a listening ear, a challenging insight, a good cry, or a massive action plan, it’s my absolute honour to work alongside you in whatever way you need. I will always tailor my approach to you, and I encourage you to communicate with me at any time if you have any preferences or adjustments.
I have worked for 8 years with clients of all ages in a counselling and coaching setting, supporting people with issues such as: Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Low self-esteem, Fertility, Existential worries, Relationships, Sexual issues, Issues relating to identity and cultural upbringing, LGBTQI+ identity and Bereavement.
I hold a degree in Humanistic Counselling Practice from Nottingham University and have also recently completed a Level 5 Certificate in Psychosexual Therapy, accredited by COSRT.
