Professional counselling

ABOUT ME

I have my own private counselling practice in Greenford.

I have worked with sufferers of trauma, PTSD, suicidal thoughts and self-harm. I have worked for over six years as a Samaritan, dealing with calls arising from all aspects of mental health.

I often deal with ADHD and Autism, both in children and adults. I welcome the nervous and sufferers of anxiety.

I only charge for time spent with you in our sessions, I do not require a subscription or minimum number of sessions.

I look forward to helping with your issues.

Forms of Counselling

LGBTQ+
Counselling with Compassion and Experience

With over six years of experience, I provide affirming, non-judgmental counselling for LGBTQ+ individuals navigating the unique challenges of today’s world. Together, we’ll explore self-acceptance, build pride in who you are, and develop tools to educate and inspire those around you. I also offer guidance for polyamorous and open relationships, helping you cultivate healthy communication, mutual respect, and fulfilling connections. My goal is to support you in becoming the most authentic, empowered version of yourself — and to help you share that light with others.

Children and
young adults

Little humans find it difficult put into words how they are feeling. They just don’t have the vocabulary as yet. Play therapy offers the child the chance to communicate through painting, singing and dancing and playing games. This helps to build up Trust and allow the child to make sense of what they are feeling. Children with ADHD and Autism find it hard to make friends and they may feel different. I will help them embrace their neurodiversity and support them. I will also show them how to educate those around them, as to why they need to step back for a moment, so as not to get overwhelmed.

Talking Therapies

There is no difficult situation that you cannot turn to your advantage. Anxiety, depression and feelings of worthlessness come mostly from experiences in your youth. Your past explains your present. It is important that you get perspective on what you have been through and at which stage of your life it affected you. When you see it from an adult’s point of view, the experience becomes a story, and thereby loses some of it’s potency and therefore its hold over you. I offer you a safe space where you will be able to access your subconscious and gain strength from the sharing. If you do the work, it doesn’t have to cost the Earth or take very long for you to become a fighter.
