Life can sometimes be a terrible struggle. We may put on a brave face and push down how we're truly feeling. Yet when we don't have an outlet for those feelings we've internalised our confusion and isolation can escalate. We may be experiencing stress, anxiety or depression, which can hinder our ability to function as we'd like to. It takes strength and courage to acknowledge these issues, and even more to ask for help...and there IS help! By seeking assistance you're already taking a significant step towards feeling better about yourself. I'm convinced that you're now using your innate ability to overcome what you're going through.

After several years of working in the legal sector, I decided to retrain as a Psychotherapist out of my passion to amplify and provide a safe space for the voices of others. I have over 2 years of clinical experience in various reputable institutions, alongside experience as a Clinical Manager in a counselling organisation. As I work integratively with an intersectional and intercultural lens, I have understanding and lived experience of how systems and interpersonal oppression can affect wellbeing in many ways. I also am a qualified Clinical Supervisor for individuals and groups, incorporating this same lens for supervisees.

Feeling overwhelmed; anxiety is on the rise; heart is continuously racing; having constant negative thoughts and your usual survival techniques are not working; then please, stop, pause and breathe. These are signs that it may be a good time to seek help. If you are reading this right now, then you are already taking that first step. As a qualified counsellor, I have experience working with a wide range of clients who are dealing with anxiety, depression, burn out, stress and low self esteem. Life is complex and sometimes you cannot do it alone. This is where I hope to be able to help you find who you are and your true potential.

Hello, I'm Charlene. I am an experienced counsellor offering sessions in-person or online to adults. I don’t know about you, but I think it takes a lot of courage to admit to ourselves that we need a bit of support. As we go about our daily lives getting through the best we can, we may notice ourselves struggling to keep our head above water, or feelings of anxiety and depression emerge. You may be dealing with relationship difficulties or unhelpful life patterns. Perhaps you’re feeling lost and wondering ‘how did I get here?’ This can be an unsettling place to be. I hope to support you in whatever situation you find yourself in.

As a people pleaser, you are used to putting others before yourself. People often describe you as the Nice Guy/Girl and often confide in you with what they are going through but you don’t really have the someone to do the same for you. You often feel lonely, lost, unappreciated and unseen. You wonder when will I be seen and appreciated for all I do and who you are? When will I find someone to help me as much as I help others. What if that could all change?

Hi, I’m a relationship and trauma informed therapist. Your life may feel like a ‘hot mess’ at the moment, you may have tried google, read self help books or watched mental health videos. You have realised that nothing is helping. This may feel ‘alien’ to you, perhaps you’re the person that people call ‘strong’, no-one can comprehend that you may be struggling. So imagine, that you are not overthinking, irritable and frustrated with yourself or others. In therapy, you will have time ‘for you’, to learn to manage your symptoms and to ultimately heal. As you continue to heal, you will start to implement changes to make your life better

I have worked as an integrative psychotherapist for more than twenty years and this experience has taught me that it is the quality of relationship, both with ourselves and others, that is the key to a rich sense of wellbeing. Addressing issues in relationships that arise from traumatic events in childhood and/or adulthood creates opportunities for change and sows the seeds of hope and joy. I am known for my deeply empathic approach and the ability to hear my clients’ stories without judgment, which allows them to express both the lows and the highs of their lives. My training and experience have deepened my insight and understand

I am a Relationship Counselor and offer a combination of Counselling and Life Coaching. Sometimes we find ourselves in situations that are beyond our control, and this can sometimes overwhelm us. Our power lies not in the matter but deep within us. Are you struggling or stressed out with a job that gives you little or no satisfaction and or stressed by life in general? Are you experiencing constant conflict in your relationship? Does it feel like no one understands you? I will help you deal with: Stress-related issues, conflict in relationships or marriage, miscarriage, low self-esteem or confidence.

Working with me would not only be in a respectful, collaborative and warm way but also in caring, compassionate and open-minded way. It is also about recognising and naming what is maintaining the problems, understanding them and allowing yourself to have a different perspective of life. My aim is to plant a seed of purpose, meaning and healing in your journey.
