About the Therapist

About the therapist:

Before becoming a therapist, I worked in a variety of roles, from watersports instructor and bar supervisor to operations manager for a small online business. But from a young age, I had a desire to support others. In 2020, taking advantage of some time on furlough, I took a leap and enrolled in an introductory counselling course at a local college.

A little less than 5 years of training later, I graduated from the Metanoia Institute with a BSc (Hons) in Humanistic Counselling.

During my training, I had the privilege of volunteering at charity counselling services. I worked in both long and short-term therapy, helping people with a range of needs. From working with young adults navigating identity, life developmental transitions, to working with survivors of sexual abuse and assault, these experiences that shaped the therapist I am today.

I have lived experience in kink, polyamorous and ENM relationships as well as diverse sexual attraction.

Experience and approach:

I am a humansitically trained counsellor which mean I believe in the inherent goodness of my clients. I trust in their experience of and expertise of their own lives. My role as a therapist to provide in space in which you can feel into and express your real experience free from fear of judgement or invalidation.

This is founded in the understandting that real change starts with awareness, noticing what’s happening for us, how we're reacting, and why. Once we can see your patterns clearly, we can move toward acceptance, acknowledging what’s true right now without judgment.

From there, we can step into autonomy, the freedom to choose whether to keep following old behaviours or try something new.

Finally, the focus is on empowerment, building the confidence, resources and skills to make those new choices stick.

In practice, this might mean I reflect what you’ve told me so you can hear it in a new way, ask questions to clarify your thoughts, or offer a different perspective for you to consider. Sometimes we might work through compassion exercises, thought experiments, or mindfulness tools like breathing and grounding techniques, whatever helps you feel supported and resourced.
