the who.
I provide individual counselling and support for adults and older adolescents,

areas of therapy & support.
Full transparency: I love a list — write them all the time — but not so much these ones.
Clinical and diagnostic terms are limited, often oversimplified, and can be uncomfortable or unhelpful for many people. They are not intended to capture the full complexity of anyone’s life, nor to reduce you or your experiences to a category or label.
I use this language throughout the website at times because it provides a shared framework in mental health — a way of signalling common experiences or helping people work out where they might find the right support. It’s imperfect, sometimes misleading, and not how everyone makes sense of their own experiences.
This list is simply an overview of the kinds of challenges or diagnosis I commonly support. It’s not exhaustive, and it’s not a checklist or something you need to fit into or identify with.
You’re welcome to reach out with any questions about my approach, qualifications, training, or experience — whatever may help you get a sense of whether the fit feels right for you. Feeling comfortable in your choice of who and where you seek support from matters.

the how and why.
I work from a holistic, person-centred approach that sees you in the full context of your life - your experiences, strengths, needs, and goals.
Why? Because no two people or experiences are exactly the same. Our biological, psychological, and social worlds interact in ways that shape how we think, feel, and move through life.
By understanding what matters to you, therapeutic support can be shaped in a way that feels relevant, accessible, helpful, and meaningful.
I believe mental health support and therapy is most effective when it is tailored to you and your life - compassionate, non-judgemental and grounded in evidence.
Life may feel complex, uncertain, and messy at times — you don’t have to navigate it alone
My approach is shaped by a deep commitment to both trauma‑informed and neurodiversity‑affirming practice. I work with an understanding of how experiences of trauma, and neurodevelopmental conditions interact, impact, and influence mental health and quality of life.
With almost two decades of clinical mental health experience, I bring both professional knowledge and a commitment to ongoing learning. My goal is to offer support that is flexible, evidence‑based, and responsive to the unique challenges and strengths you bring.
