If you’re looking for a calmer mind, more confidence, or a space where you don’t have to hold everything together, counselling could be a great place to start. It’s totally normal not to be 100% sure. You don’t need to have it all figured out before you reach out.

Some people come to counselling because something feels “off,” even if they can’t quite put their finger on it. Some people might be more specific with what they are struggling with e.g. 'Anxiety is kicking my butt'. Some people might want to try a few sessions and see where they can go with it.

Wherever you are at - we can start there.

Think of it as a warm, calm space where you get to breathe out for a minute. No judgement, no pressure, no “right way” to show up. Please know that I come fully as I am, you are encouraged to come exactly as you are too.

In our sessions (whether online, in Rayleigh, or over the phone), you set the pace. We talk about what’s going on for you - the anxiety, the relationship stuff, the people-pleasing, the emotional overwhelm - and we gently explore what’s beneath it, how it is impacting you and consider what change could look like.

Yes - both!

I offer in-person counselling in Rayleigh, Essex, as well as online therapy (Google Meet) and telephone sessions for anyone in the UK.

Some clients love the comfort of talking from home; others prefer the separation and face-to-face connection of the therapy room. There’s no right answer, you can choose whatever feels safest and easiest for you.

And yes, you can switch between formats if life gets busy or your needs change.

It totally depends on you. Therapy isn’t a race and there is no quick-fix promise. Some people come for a handful of sessions, others stay longer as part of ongoing self-care and growth. We’ll go at a pace that feels safe, steady, and supportive - not rushed or pressured. And you’ll always be in control of the process.
