York & Wetherby Based Counsellor & Psychotherapist. MA, BA (Hons), BACP.

Counselling to help manage stress, anxiety, grief and relationships.
 

My practice offers a warm, supportive, and confidential space where you can feel safe, valued and heard.

I work with people experiencing stress, anxiety, low mood, grief, or an overall sense of feeling overwhelmed. During sessions, you’ll have a supportive and confidential space to talk openly, gain perspective, and develop practical ways forward. My work is grounded in attachment theory, supporting clients to build safer, more compassionate relationships with themselves and others.

My approach

I am a qualified, person-centred and integrative counsellor, providing a safe and non-judgemental environment where you can reflect and work through what has brought you to therapy. My approach is collaborative and compassionate, supporting you to move towards positive change.

Through our work together, you can:
 

  • Explore the pressures you face and develop ways to manage them effectively.

  • Build confidence in yourself and the choices you make.

  • Navigate life’s challenges and relationships whilst staying grounded.

  • Reconnect with your needs, values, and priorities.

  • Understand your past to work towards a stronger present.
     

I offer therapy in person in York and Wetherby, by phone, or online, so you can choose the option that works best for you. I would love to hear how I can support you.
