I see clients face to face in central Faversham, and work with individuals from all over the UK online. The thing I enjoy most about this work, is helping individuals strengthen their relationships with themselves and others. Life's big transitions, such as bereavement, redundancy, divorce or becoming a carer (to name but a few), can be exhausting, confusing and overwhelming. I help adults of all ages navigate these changes, but in recent years the majority of my enquires are from younger adults.

There's often a general expectation to achieve certain things by a certain age. This applies particularly to young adults and professionals. You may be thinking about establishing or changing a career, further education, exploring your identity, wanting a partner or more friends, starting a family or leaving a relationship, and all the while, responsibilities and commitments are increasing.

Perhaps you feel overwhelmed by crucial decisions, or you're stuck repeating patterns in relationships. Maybe you know something needs to change, but it's difficult to pinpoint what it is. This is also a time where past and painful experiences begin to surface, such as childhood neglect or trauma. With so much going on, it's natural to feel stuck or aimless, and have feelings of not being good enough.

I can help you find clarity by addressing the root cause of your concerns. We'll explore your past, especially if it affects your ability to make changes in the present, and we'll find ways to stop you becoming tangled in your thoughts. 

 My background was in the Arts and Media. I've always been interested in the stories we tell ourselves and in helping others tell their own stories. My experience of receiving counselling as a young adult led me to train as a counsellor. I learnt that counselling is an investment in future relationships - when you can be more fully yourself, you open the door to deeper connections with others, and the effects of that are surprisingly far reaching. 

Although it's natural to feel anxious about starting counselling (especially if you haven't had it before) I aim to provide a warm and supportive environment for our work. It's important to me that you feel secure enough to be able to open up in the therapy room.

I put our relationship at the centre of the process, so this means we'll check in with each other regularly and talk about how we think the counselling is going and what is and isn't working for you. Together we'll make sure we're taking the route that's right for you.

As you become comfortable talking to me honestly about your wants and needs, you will gain more self-compassion, and the confidence to communicate authentically to others.

Previous clients have often reported feeling lighter after sessions, and have described my style as "calming"

A first session is mainly about you getting a sense of whether you'd feel comfortable working with me - whether we'd be a good fit. You'd tell me as much or as little as feels right for you, and I get the opportunity to think about how I can best be of help.

At the end of that first session, I'll give you some information about my practice to take away and read, so that if you need it, you can have some time to think about it before setting up any more sessions.

I offer a free 20 minute initial phone call, so please take that first step and get in touch to arrange. My practice is welcoming and inclusive
