Summary
I offer counselling for adults from all backgrounds, with a particular passion for supporting people whose lives have been touched by cancer. This may mean you have recently received a diagnosis, are undergoing treatment, are living with cancer as a long-term condition, are in remission, or are facing the uncertainty and anxiety of waiting for results. It may also mean you are caring for or grieving someone affected by cancer.
Cancer can be an overwhelming experience – emotionally, physically, and mentally. It can stir feelings of fear, sadness, confusion, anger, or isolation, and can sometimes make it difficult to recognise yourself or connect with others in the way you once did. You may feel pressured to “stay strong” for loved ones, even while you’re struggling inside. My role is to offer a safe, understanding space where you can bring all of your thoughts and feelings without judgement, where you can be wholly yourself.
I draw on the principles of humanistic therapy, offering warmth, openness, and honesty in the counselling relationship. This approach values your autonomy – you set the pace, and our work together is guided by what you feel ready to share and explore. Rather than giving advice or telling you what to do, I will walk alongside you as an ally, helping you discover your own solutions and coping strategies.
I also offer counselling for various problems such as depression, anxiety, bereavement and much more.
