What can I do for you?

How I Can Support You


I offer compassionate, confidential counselling to help you navigate a wide range of challenges, including:

  • Loss and bereavement

  • Anxiety and stress

  • Depression

  • Building resilience

  • Personal and professional issues

  • Burnout and fatigue

  • Processing accident-related trauma

  • Exploring sexuality and sexual concerns

  • Clinical supervision for counsellors

Above all, I listen – with empathy and without judgement – to truly understand what you’re going through.

I’m especially passionate about supporting those in the caring professions, including veterinary surgeons, veterinary nurses, and animal shelter staff. (Proud cat dad to two shelter rescues here.)

Please know that you’re not alone. If you're feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to turn, reach out. Let’s talk and explore how we can work together to support both your wellbeing and the important role you play in the lives of others.

Much of my working life has been dedicated to the care profession — a path that has shaped my values and deepened my commitment to supporting others with compassion and respect.

I’ve worked across a range of settings, including care homes, vocational therapy services, and specialist mental health hospital units. I’ve also supported individuals through roles with MIND — contributing to their Recovery College and group programmes — and as a counsellor with Durham County Carers Support.

These experiences have given me valuable insight into the real-life challenges people face, and how skilled, thoughtful support can make a real difference.

Many of these roles began through volunteering, driven by a desire to gain personal insight and practical experience. That hands-on learning continues to guide my work — helping me support others in a grounded, empathetic, and authentic way.

I mainly work now with LGBTQ+ Issues 

 

I have been working relationally within the LGBTQ+ community for many years, offering a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space to explore the unique relationship, sexual, and personal challenges that individuals in the community may face. Whether you’re navigating issues around identity, intimacy, acceptance, or connection, I understand that these experiences can often be complex, deeply personal, and sometimes isolating.

My approach is rooted in respect, empathy, and an understanding of the broader social and cultural pressures that can impact emotional wellbeing. I aim to walk alongside you as you make sense of your experiences and find a path that feels right for you — one that honours who you are and where you want to go.
