I counsel adults and young people (aged 11+) from my counselling room in Crookham Village.​ I am experienced in working with clients from varied backgrounds who are struggling with their mental health and wellbeing for a variety of reasons. I offer both short-term solution focussed therapy and open-ended counselling so that you can work at a pace and depth that suits your needs and goals. 

​

As an integrative therapist I don't believe in a 'one size fits all' approach. Instead I draw from a range of different modalities (humanistic, psychodynamic, cognitive, existential, transactional analysis, and physiological), tailoring my approach to suit you. It can be difficult to put distressing experiences, thoughts and emotions into words, so if you are amenable I may employ various creative tools and techniques to aid self-expression, build understanding and explore alternative perspectives (drawing, therapy cards, worksheets, games, mindmaps, family tree, sandtray, mini-figures etc). This can be particularly useful with young people, neuro-diverse clients, and those who struggle to articulate themselves verbally. 

​

Building a trusting relationship is fundamental to the work, so it is really important to find the right person to take this journey with. For this reason I offer a free (no obligation) phone or video call so that we can learn more about each other, you can ask any questions, and we can determine if we are a good fit.

All the best,
