‍You may be feeling anxious, burnt out, sad, angry, stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure why certain thoughts, feelings or patterns keep showing up in your life. You may be facing a specific challenge, navigating a period of change, or simply wanting a better understanding of yourself.

Counselling can provide a supportive, confidential space to reflect, feel heard and explore what is troubling you. Through this process, it is possible to gain greater clarity, develop new perspectives and move forward with increased self-awareness and confidence.

Registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the British Association for Performing Arts Medicine (BAPAM), I work with clients aged 16+ online across the UK and in person in Hastings, East Sussex.

Focused Short-Term Counselling

Alongside longer-term counselling, I offer focused short-term counselling, typically over six sessions, for people seeking support with a specific challenge, life event or decision.

Short-term counselling can help you:

• gain clarity around a particular challenge

• develop practical coping strategies

• understand patterns that may be keeping you stuck

• explore options and make decisions with greater confidence

• make meaningful changes within a defined timeframe

Many people find that a focused period of counselling provides the support they need to move forward positively.

My Approach

I am trained in Integrative Counselling, combining person-centred and psychodynamic approaches, together with psychoeducation.

I work collaboratively, adapting to your individual needs and circumstances. My aim is to provide a space that feels safe, respectful and free from judgement, where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Counselling offers a unique opportunity to reflect on your experiences, relationships and patterns of behaviour. Whether you are struggling with a specific life event or a longer-standing difficulty, having a dedicated space to explore what is happening can help you gain insight and move forward more freely.

I work with clients from diverse socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. Some of my clients are diagnosed or self-diagnosed as neurodivergent, and I strive to offer a thoughtful, neurodivergent-informed practice.

Working with students in higher education has also given me particular experience supporting late teens and young adults as they navigate the transition into further education, employment, independence and adult life.

My Experience

Alongside my private practice, I am part of the counselling team at London Contemporary Dance School and work as a freelance counsellor for Eggtooth, a creative mental health and wellbeing charity.

Previously, I worked within counselling services at BIMM London, BIMM Brighton, MetFilm School and the Institute for Contemporary Theatre.

Before training as a counsellor, I spent many years working in public relations across music, art, dance, fashion, beauty, media and entertainment. This gives me an understanding of the pressures, expectations and uncertainties that can come with working in creative industries.

While I work with people from all walks of life, many of my clients are students, artists, performers and others working in creative fields.

How I Came to Counselling

Having experienced the benefits of therapy myself, I became fascinated by the ways our early relationships, experiences and patterns influence how we think, feel and relate to others.

During my counselling training, I developed a deeper understanding of attachment, personal development and the patterns of behaviour we often carry into adulthood. What began as an interest became a vocation and I now feel privileged to support others in exploring their own experiences and challenges.
