Counselling

Supporting your healing — at your own pace, in your own way

A space for you

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying too much — past pain, family expectations, self-doubt, or a sense of not belonging.


Counselling offers a space where you can talk freely and feel truly heard — without judgement or pressure.

 

My role as your counsellor is to help you explore your experiences safely, understand yourself more deeply, and begin to heal the emotional wounds that may be holding you back.

Common areas I work with

I support adults who are experiencing a wide range of emotional and relational challenges, including:​​​​​

Plants

Anxiety and stress

Yoga Pose Close-Up

Low self-esteem and self-criticism

Family Walking On the Beach

Family or relationship difficulties

Life transitions and cultural adjustment

Red Matryoshka Doll

Identity, belonging and cross-cultural issues

My approach

I am an Integrative Counsellor, which means I draw on a range of approaches to tailor therapy to your individual needs.

 

At the heart of my work is the Person-Centred approach, which values empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard — creating a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship.

 

Depending on your needs, I may also integrate:

Psychodynamic ideas

Psychodynamic ideas to explore how past experiences shape your present patterns

Cognitive Behavioural techniques (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioural techniques (CBT) to support awareness and behavioural change

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Internal Family Systems (IFS) to work compassionately with different parts of the self

Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT)

Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) to reduce shame and self-criticism

Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels right for you — helping you to make sense of your experiences, strengthen your sense of self, and move towards emotional balance and wellbeing.
