My approach to counselling is integrative as I don’t believe there’s a one-size-fits-all solution. I’ll work with your unique perspective, adapting my style to meet your needs.

At the core of my work is Person-Centred therapy, which emphasises the healing power of the therapeutic relationship itself – it’s all about that click between me and you, then my further studies in Psychotherapy can help us explore unconscious patterns from your past that may be affect your present.

I also draw on other approaches to address specific challenges. For example, CBT techniques are great for anxiety or breaking free from negative core beliefs. BA (Behavioural Activation) can help you If you’re dealing with depression. Elements of ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy) are great for getting clarity on your values and making life decisions that align with what truly matters to you. And finally, I’ve studied a trauma-informed approach because I believe unresolved trauma often lies at the heart of many of our struggles.
