About Me
My ethos
I believe that almost everyone could benefit from a therapist at some time or another. We all have minds, like we all have bodies, and just like our bodies become unwell sometimes, so do our minds. Mental health should be no less attended to than physical health. Therapy is like taking our medicine. I work in an integrative and client-led way in order to support you to feel heard, valued, and to reach your goals in a way that suits you.
I understand how daunting it can be. Part of my training requires me to undergo a significant amount of personal therapy myself, so I understand the process of being vulnerable and seeking help from the inside out.
Lots of people are unsure of what to expect, fear being judged, or have difficulty opening up. I work in an open and non-judgmental way, whilst offering gentle guidance or more structured support and strategies if required. Choosing the right therapist can be overwhelming, so I offer a free 15 minute call to introduce myself and see if we connect and I can help you with your difficulties.
