About the Therapist

About the therapist:

Are you struggling with a specific issue in your life or maybe you just feel that something isn't quite right? Sometimes, taking the time and space to explore our thoughts, feelings, and problems is exactly what we need. Based in the South Birmingham area and available online, I offer a safe, supportive environment where you can reflect on your challenges and experiences and understand their impact on your life. Together, we will work towards a deeper understanding of yourself and support your personal growth.

I strive to create a welcoming and non-judgmental space where your thoughts and feelings can be freely shared. As a late-diagnosed Autistic and Dyslexic person, I understand the importance of finding a space to be heard and validated. I regularly work with Autistic, ADHD and otherwise Neurodivergent people in an affirming way. I am GSRD (Gender Sex and Relational Diversity) trained and affirming of LGBTQIA+ identities.

Supervision:

I am a CPCAB Level 6 supervisor in training, offering supervision sessions at £25 per hour or £37.50 for 1.5 hours. (Note that fees will increase to £50 per hour starting in June.)

My primary approach is person-centred, with experience in integrative methods to address various needs.

In addition to my role as a qualified counsellor in private practice, I have a background in teaching and mentoring students and have worked for a CIC and a counselling charity.

I have supervised a range of counsellors using the seven-eyed model framework. My aim is to support you in line with your ethical framework, offering both support and challenges to help you reach your potential.

My commitment to inclusivity involves continuously challenging and reflecting on assumptions, biases, and stereotypes. I engage in regular ongoing CPD to further my education and improve my practice.
