Personal Profile
Experiencing anxiety, low mood, uncertainty, loss and grief are what it is to be human. It can be helpful when going through these difficult times to have a confidential, safe space to share your difficulties, concerns or anything that matters to you without the fear of being judged.
Counselling can help you to process your emotions, explore your situation to gain a better insight into what you are going through and provide you with tools to approach life with more balance and peace.
Counselling does not need to be accessed solely during times of feeling low and overwhelmed. It is healthy to have a space where you can discuss how you are feeling, gain a better understanding of yourself and work towards self-improvement and self-development.

Introduction
Hi and welcome!
I am a qualified psychotherapist offering counselling and psychotherapy to adults and young people aged 16+, online, by telephone and face to face in Sutton, Surrey.
I facilitate short term (6-12 sessions) and long term (open-ended) therapy, as well as single session therapy.
I have a particular expertise in working with issues related to identity. I have extensive experience working with individuals wanting to explore their experience of Autism and/ or ADHD, cultural identity and sexuality.
I believe in a holistic approach to health and wellbeing, taking into account all of our being - psychological, cultural, physical, social and spiritual.
I work in a way that is gentle, warm and holding. I endeavour to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to talk through the experiences you are facing.
