Hi, thank you for taking the time to look at my profile.
Are you an overthinker? Do you find yourself easily affected by everything? Would you consider yourself quite sensitive? Are you struggling with people-pleasing tendencies or self-esteem issues? Do you find yourself battling with internal conflicts? If this resonates with you, then you are in the right place.
I am a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor who specialises in working with individuals who struggle with self-esteem issues, people-pleasing and are quite sensitive in nature.
You may be feeling tired of being stuck in repeated patterns and find yourself longing for change, yet needing assistance to work through them. Perhaps you're noticing how these behavioural patterns are affecting your relationships, how you feel about yourself, and overall life satisfaction. This is where I come in – I aim to offer you space for guided introspection so that you can uncover the emotional and psychological blockages that are holding you back.
In our sessions, you'll find a nurturing, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings. Together, we'll delve into what's troubling you, to uncover insights, understandings, and clarity to move forward. I will help to guide you towards developing a more harmonious relationship with yourself and others.
My holistic therapeutic approach involves addressing the whole person, including the mind, body and spirit. If you service seems like a good fit for you, reach out and let's begin your journey together!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
