My approach is grounded in an experiential person-centred philosophy. This means I offer an environment where you can explore your experiences at your own pace, with empathy, authenticity and a deep respect for your autonomy. I hold space for how experiences are felt and processed in the present moment, supporting you to connect with your inner knowing.

I draw from existential perspectives, inviting reflection around some of life’s deeper questions and meanings, particularly during times of transition, loss or uncertainty. I am also deeply passionate about integrating creative elements into the therapeutic process when it feels right. This may involve using expressive tools to support different ways of exploring and processing experiences beyond words.

I hold a BSc (Hons) in Person-Centred Counselling and am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). My experience includes working as a volunteer bereavement counsellor at St Wilfrid’s Hospice in Eastbourne, supporting individuals navigating grief and loss. I have also worked as a volunteer for the SHOUT text service, offering urgent mental health and crisis support.

I regularly engage in continuing professional development, with a particular focus on areas such as creative expression in therapy, grief and bereavement support, as well as identity, difference and inclusivity. My work is also shaped by my own lived experiences, which deepens my understanding of uniqueness and the importance of creating a space that is inclusive, affirming, and respectful of each person’s sense of self.

I am fully insured and hold an enhanced DBS check.
