I am a person-centred counsellor committed to empowering individuals using a warm empathetic and non-judgemental approach. I believe in creating a safe accepting space where clients can explore their feelings and experiences at their own pace.
Whether you are facing life transitions, emotional challenges, or the journey towards self-improvement, I am dedicated to facilitating meaningful change and personal growth, empowering my clients to lead more fulfilling and authentic lives.
In addition to being a Counsellor, I am an expert by experience, having personally navigated the complex journey of organ transplant. This lived experience, combined with my professional training, enables me to offer a unique empathetic and informed perspective to clients facing similar challenges. I create a safe space where individuals and families can explore their emotions and experiences related to the transplant process, drawing on both my personal insights and evidence based person-centred approach as well as working integratively by blending various therapeutic approaches tailored to the unique needs of he client.

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.
