I am an experienced counsellor offering UK wide, short to medium term one to one counselling online for adult women. I help women who are struggling to manage negative emotions due to stressful life events or changes in any aspect of their life such as personal development/identity, family life, relationships, work, career. Although I work with women from all backgrounds, as a London born, Afro-Caribbean Black British woman, I can offer a nuanced understanding of women of Black/African/African-Caribbean origin who are struggling with challenges in life that are causing difficult and overwhelming emotions.

I offer short and long term counselling to adults - providing a non-judgemental and empathetic space to be truly heard.  My specialisms are times of life transitions, particularly bereavement and new parenthood. I trained integratively but primarily work from a person-centred space. This means that I believe you are the expert in knowing what you need. However, I understand from personal experience that this internal voice can sometimes feel lost or silenced and having another person there to validate, listen and support your process can make a real difference.

Welcome. It can feel difficult to start with counselling, so let me start by saying the work we do will be guided by your own choices and needs. You can express these in a confidential space of emotional safety and we can explore what is happening for you, better understand it and heal. As a qualified life coach I can also build on the therapeutic work to help you define and move towards your goals at a pace that suits and feels safe to you. I work with all aspects of identity in an inclusive non judgemental practice.
