What brings people to therapy?
You might be feeling anxious, low, burnt out, or simply stuck. Perhaps a relationship has changed, something from the past keeps resurfacing, or you're finding it hard to manage the day-to-day. Sometimes there’s no clear reason — just a sense that things aren’t how you want them to be.
Whatever’s brought you here, therapy can be a space to slow down, reflect, and feel more like yourself again.
Talking things through with someone outside your usual circle can bring relief, perspective, and clarity. In therapy, we can explore what’s going on beneath the surface: the thoughts, feelings, and patterns that may be holding you back.
Counselling can help you:
Understand and manage difficult emotions
Build healthier relationships (with yourself and others)
Make sense of the past and how it’s affecting you now
Develop tools to cope with anxiety, stress, or overwhelm
Reconnect with your values, direction, or confidence
How Therapy Can Help
How I work and what to expect
Space to pause, reflect and reconnect with yourself
As an integrative counsellor, I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, I draw on a range of therapeutic models to suit your unique needs and personality.
Sometimes that means gently exploring your past and how it may still be showing up in the present. Other times, we might focus more on what’s happening in the here and now: your thoughts, feelings, relationships, and coping strategies.
Sessions might be:
Conversational — a space to talk things through freely
Reflective — exploring patterns or deeper emotions
Practical — developing tools to manage stress or anxiety
Creative — using imagery, metaphor, or gentle techniques to connect with feelings when words are hard
Remote sessions via a secure video platform
50 minutes, usually weekly
Flexible approach based on what feels most helpful to you
A free 15-minute intro call is available if you’d like to meet first or ask questions
You don’t need to prepare or know exactly what to say. Therapy will move at your pace, and I’ll meet you wherever you are. My role is to support you with compassion, curiosity, and respect — not to judge, diagnose, or give you all the answers, but to help you explore your own.
