A calm, supportive space to talk things through and find your way forward.
I offer individual counselling for people who are looking for support, clarity, or simply a space to talk things through. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, going through a life transition, or unsure where to begin, you’re welcome to come just as you are.
Counselling offers a supportive and confidential space where you can talk openly about what’s going on in your life, without fear of judgement. It’s a place to slow down, make sense of your experiences, and gently explore thoughts, feelings, and patterns that may be feeling overwhelming or stuck.
In our sessions, the focus is on you—your story, your needs, and what feels most important right now. We might work through current challenges, explore past experiences, or look at patterns in relationships, emotions, or self-belief that are impacting your wellbeing.
Together, we can gently explore what’s on your mind and in your heart, at a pace that feels right for you, with care, openness, and acceptance. You’re welcome to arrive just as you are, and we’ll begin gently from there.
You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting. Many people come to counselling feeling unsure, simply knowing that something doesn’t feel right or that they want things to change.
What you can expect is a calm, collaborative space where we move at your pace. My approach is warm, grounded, and supportive, and together we’ll work towards greater clarity, emotional relief, and a stronger sense of self-understanding.
The journey from where you are to where you want to be can feel overwhelming. But it doesn’t need to happen all at once — just one step at a time. Small, steady steps are often what create real change.
Individual counselling offers a space to explore the areas of life that feel heavy, confusing, or emotionally overwhelming. Below are some of the most common areas I support people with.
When life feels overwhelming, anxious, or hard to settle into, it can affect your thoughts, sleep, relationships, and sense of calm.
In counselling, we gently explore what’s driving the anxiety and begin building ways to feel more grounded and in control.
Grief can feel different for everyone — it may come as sadness, numbness, shock, anger, or a sense of disorientation after loss or change.
In counselling, we make space for your grief at your own pace, helping you process loss and adjust to life after change.
Life transitions can bring uncertainty, even when the change is expected — such as relationship shifts, career changes, becoming a parent, empty nesting, or adjusting to new stages of life.
In counselling, we slow things down and explore what this change means for you emotionally, helping you find steadiness, clarity, and direction.
Relationships can feel challenging when communication breaks down, emotional distance grows, or patterns of conflict repeat over time.
In counselling, we explore these patterns together, helping you understand connection, attachment, and what sits beneath the surface in your relationships.
Family life can bring both connection and challenge — whether you’re navigating parenting stress, changing family dynamics, or adjusting to an empty nest or shifting roles within the family.
In counselling, we explore these changes with care, helping you understand emotional patterns, reduce overwhelm, and find a more balanced way of relating to yourself and others.
Low self-esteem can show up as self-doubt, harsh self-criticism, difficulty trusting yourself, or feeling like you’re never quite “enough.”
In counselling, we gently explore where these patterns come from and begin building a more grounded, compassionate, and stable sense of self-worth.
Trauma can result from overwhelming experiences that continue to affect how you feel, think, and respond in daily life.
My trauma-informed approach is influenced by contemporary understanding, including the work of Bessel van der Kolk, highlighting how trauma can be held in the body and nervous system.
Counselling focuses on safety first, then gently supporting you to process experiences at a pace that feels manageable.
Mindfulness is the practice of gently bringing your attention to the present moment, helping you notice thoughts, feelings, and sensations without becoming overwhelmed by them.
In counselling, mindfulness can be used as a supportive tool to help regulate the nervous system, reduce stress, and create more space between experience and reaction.
The process is supportive, and tailored to your needs. I'll also provide you with handouts and suggested videos to watch after the session.
Give me a call to arrange an appointment. I'll ask for your email address and I'll send you through my practice information, and a client intake form to fill out and return. Payment is due when booking the session and I have a 24 hour cancellation policy.
The first session I'll ask you to share what's bringing you to counselling. We'll identify what support would feel most helpful, and we'll begin the counselling process.
Sessions are shaped around your needs, and your counselling goals.
