Being listened to as you talk with someone you can trust helps you remember that you are not alone. It feels good to share, and talking about things can open up the door for healing. When we talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. When we try to keep things stored in our head, especially strong feelings, it gets overwhelming, which fuels our anxiety. Talking frees us from that. Together, our conversations will uncover the hidden meaning behind what's happening, and help you to find your way, as you make sense of the challenges you have found yourself facing.

The style of counselling I offer is soothing and relaxed. We'll focus on defining what works for you through our relaxing and reassuring conversations. With creative and narrative therapies wrapped in a person-centred approach, together we detangle you from the confusion and conflict you feel about living up life's expectations.

If you're tired of people pleasing, of trying to live up to expectations that don't work for you, of pretending things are okay when they're not, and of arguing with each other, and you want to find a way to have a relationship that works for you, get in touch. Let's chat about how this type of counselling can help.

I offer an empowering experience that helps you uncover where your values & beliefs are both helping you and hindering you. We'll look at where you're feeling stuck and why this has come up for you, then how to free yourself from the muck. The benefits of counselling take time, if you commit to at least 4 sessions, most clients start seeing positive and exciting changes within this timeframe.

Our time together is relaxed, comforting, and something for you to look forward to. I use a combintation of positive approaches that encourage and support you to recognise and reconnect with the best of yourself. Creative, expressive & narrative therapies may also be used to help you name and manage those feelings that have you captive, as well as free you from the causes behind feeling stuck.
