The terms counselling and psychotherapy are often used interchangeably, but they can represent different depths of support.
Counselling tends to focus on short-term or current challenges such as managing anxiety, coping with change, or navigating relationship issues. It’s practical and goal-oriented, helping you find relief and develop tools to move forward.
Psychotherapy is often a longer-term, more exploratory process. It supports you to understand deeper emotional patterns, make sense of past experiences, and create meaningful, lasting change.
In practice, I integrate both. We might begin with focused support and practical strategies, and over time, gently deepen into a more reflective and healing process, always at a pace that feels right for you.
Whatever shape our sessions take, my goal is to offer a safe, compassionate space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to grow.
Counselling and psychotherapy offer a confidential space to explore emotions, relationships, and experiences at your own pace. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, low mood, or personal change, therapy helps you feel understood, supported, and empowered to grow.
My work is grounded in Person-Centred Experiential Therapy (PCET), which places your emotions, experiences, and sense of self at the centre of the process. It offers a warm, non-judgemental space where you can feel deeply heard and supported as you explore what’s happening beneath the surface.
While PCET forms the foundation of my practice, I take an integrative approach, drawing from a range of evidence-based models to meet your unique needs and goals.
I often use elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help you recognise how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are connected, and to make small, practical changes that can ease anxiety, low mood, or self-doubt.
From a Psychodynamic perspective, we might gently explore how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence your relationships and emotional responses today.
Through Transactional Analysis (TA), we can look at the different parts of you that show up in interactions - the Parent, Adult, and Child - and how understanding these can improve communication and self-awareness
Internal Family Systems (IFS) offers a compassionate way of getting to know your inner world - the protective, critical, or wounded ‘parts’ that all have a story to tell - helping you develop a kinder, more balanced relationship with yourself.
And Inner Child Work invites connection with younger parts of you that may still carry unmet needs or early emotional wounds, especially helpful in parenting work or trauma healing.
This flexible, integrative way of working means your therapy is always tailored to you, offering structure when helpful, space when needed, and collaboration throughout.
