Please meet our team
I am a qualified counsellor with over ten years of experience, working in a women’s centre, private practice, and with Employee Assistance Programmes (EAPs).
I support individuals who are navigating a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, domestic abuse, bullying, low self-esteem, and identity crises. I have a particular interest and specialism in working with people of mixed heritage, as well as those in dual-heritage relationships.
My approach is integrative, meaning I draw on various counselling methods to tailor the therapy to your unique needs. I have worked inclusively with clients from a broad spectrum of ethnic and cultural backgrounds, and I aim to provide a warm, empathetic, and compassionate space where you feel truly heard and supported—at your own pace.
