What is integrative counselling?

Integrative counselling recognises that each person is unique, and there isn't a one- size-fits-all solution. It's about truly understanding You. Your life experiences, your challenges, and your strengths. By embracing a variety of therapeutic approaches, I aim to support your personal growth, enhance your self-awareness, and foster healing in a way that genuinely resonates with you.

What can I help you with?

Reaching out for support is deeply personal, and your unique needs are at the heart of our work together. You might be looking to explore certain feelings, thoughts, or experiences that feel too complex to untangle, or perhaps you need support with a specific concern that’s been affecting your life. I welcome whatever you bring to our sessions, but I also offer a list of areas I can support with:
• Anxiety
• Bereavement
• Burnout
• Chronic illness
• Depression
• Feeling sad
• LGBTQ+ counselling
• Loneliness
• Low self-confidence
• Low self-esteem
• Neurodiversity
• Relationship problems
• Self-harm
• Separation and divorce
• Sexual abuse
• Sexual assault
• Social anxiety
• Stress
• Suicidal thoughts
• Trauma

Is counselling confidential?

Yes. Counselling is meant to be a safe space where you can explore difficult emotions and express what’s on your mind, knowing that what you share won’t be disclosed to anyone. There are a few rare exceptions, which I always discuss in the first session with a client.

How many sessions will I need?

I understand that this might seem like a lot to think about, but I'm here to support you every step of the way. Before you start, it might be helpful to reflect on a few things:
• What do you hope to achieve from our counselling sessions?
• How long have these feelings or challenges been part of your life?
I offer flexible counselling options, whether you prefer short-term or ongoing sessions. In our first meeting, we'll take some time to discuss what's brought you to counselling and find a path that feels comfortable for you. As we continue, I'll regularly check in with you to make sure you're feeling supported and that our work together is meeting your needs.
