'No words can reflect how much you have helped me. My family have noticed me getting better and enjoying life more'
My Approach
​​As a counsellor, I have knowledge and understanding to work in a trauma-based way, with a background in supporting clients who have survived abuse and sexual violence. This means that I can support you to work through past traumatic events and move towards a sense of safety through gaining a deeper understanding of yourself and how past events may have shaped your current lived experience.
​
I am person-centred at the core, this means my aim is to offer a compassionate, empathic space free from judgement to enable individuals to share their own personal history with any mental or emotional struggles. I have a very gentle approach, and we will move at your pace to ensure that you feel safe, heard and empowered.
​
I am based in the Lancaster and Morecambe area, however, I will endeavor to be flexible with appointment timings to accommodate clients who travel from further a field for face to face sessions.

About me
I have a calm, compassionate nature and feel it is important to show kindness to everybody I meet. It is my natural empathy which inspired my career path to become a qualified psychotherapist when a close friend suggested 'why don't you give this a go'.
​
I took my first step into the realm of counselling when completing an 'Introduction to Counselling Skills' course with the University of Cumbria, and I recall connecting with the philosophy that humans can grow into their authentic self's through offering genuine care and a space free from judgement.
