I am licensed in the UK with over 8 years of qualified professional work experience as a therapist. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, depression, family conflicts, motivation, self esteem, and confidence in private practice, charities, and custodial settings. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you - you just may not be fully aware of these strengths yet. It takes courage to take the first steps towards a change, and I am here to help support and empower you in that journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
