The first step to getting help is the hardest. When you feel vulnerable, it's difficult to know who to trust. This can make us anxious, fearing the worst, or worried, wondering if our situation will be seen as trivial. All of those are valid feelings. Imagine stepping into a space where you feel safe, heard, and deeply understood and having someone gently guide you through a journey of self-discovery, highlighting the aspects of yourself that empower and uplift you as you work through the things troubling you.

I offer counselling for women from diverse backgrounds via telehealth counselling, walk and talk therapy and face to face sessions.
As a culturally informed counsellor, I have lived experience of seeking others' approval and it is exhausting. Constantly overthinking and worrying about others' opinions may be signs of low self-esteem. You may be holding back so that you are not criticised. Your inner voice may sound like 'conflict is uncomfortable and it can get really awkward' or 'If I speak up I will upset someone'. It is common for many women to eventually withdraw into a shell and overtime become invisible. Sometimes it feels easier to go along with things and pretend to be agreeable rather than risk offending others. But how long can you go on like this?

For reasons that I cannot explain, the more complex the clients needs, the more likely they are to find themselves on my doorstep. Commonly, I have clients tell me in their first session that 'they have many issues and no one else has ever been able to help them before' - this is generally an indication that we will build a lasting relationship. I am patient, very open-minded and laid back in my approach whilst still maintaining professionalism. If you fear therapy because of the overly clinical approach then you will find my way of forming a therapeutic alliance refreshing and endearing.

It was a long time ago and it no longer affects me, right? Not necessarily! When we experience systematic childhood trauma we create strong- and unconscious- survival mechanisms that keep signalling danger, even when there is none. This is what we call triggers. These triggers appear in your life in many ways. We also look for familiar situations where the trauma is repeated looking for control of the situation and integration. So the past is much more than the past. Going deep inside yourself in a safe, non judgmental space and explore who you are and who you no longer have to be will bring you life long benefits.

My practice is focused on supporting individuals & couples through life’s toughest moments—whether it's anxiety, depression, trauma, identity struggles, or relationship problems. I understand these struggles often run deep, rooted in early attachments, major life changes, or the pain of grief—whether it’s for a loved one, a relationship, or even a dream that never came to be. My passion is in standing alongside those who feel marginalised—whether by race, gender, sexuality, or chronic conditions like diabetes. I believe each person’s story is uniquely their own, and I tailor my approach to honour that individuality with compassion.
