I work with you in a way that feels comfortable, safe, and supportive, blending reflection with practical strategies. Together, we can explore what matters most to you. Some of the ways I can support you include:
-
Feeling overwhelmed or stuck – help make sense of emotions, thoughts, and situations that feel hard to manage.
-
Exploring identity and self-expression – including gender, sexuality, and personal growth, with a safe, non-judgemental space.
-
Relationships and communication – navigating connections, setting boundaries, and improving understanding with others.
-
Relationship diversity – supporting ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, and other non-traditional relationship structures.
-
Kink-aware support – offering a space where you can explore aspects of desire, boundaries, or community involvement without judgement.
-
Life transitions and coping with change – from career shifts to personal challenges, loss, or uncertainty.
-
Confidence and wellbeing – developing self-awareness, self-compassion, and resilience in everyday life.
I provide online sessions that fit around your schedule, whether you want reflection, practical strategies, or a mix of both. My aim is to help you feel seen, understood, and empowered to move forward in a way that feels authentic to you.

Ongoing counselling sessions are 50 minutes and cost £55 per session, delivered via online video call.
I offer a limited number of reduced-fee (concession) spaces for students and those on a low income. Sliding-scale rates are discussed individually and are subject to availability—please feel free to ask if cost is a barrier.
