My approach

My approach is integrative, drawing on Person-Centred Counselling, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Therapy.


I believe that each of us has an innate capacity to grow, adapt and find new ways of relating to ourselves and others. My role is to help create the conditions in which that capacity can emerge.
 

I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions and relationships with honesty and curiosity. Together, we'll explore the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, creating space for greater self-awareness, healthier relationships and meaningful change.

Rather than following a fixed method, I meet you where you are, adapting the work to your individual needs and supporting you at a pace that feels right for you.

My Journey

Before training as a counsellor, my life took me through many diverse experiences. I worked on challenging social projects across Europe, including in Northern Ireland during the 1990s and Croatia during the war. These experiences deepened my understanding of resilience, trauma, community and the importance of human connection.

On returning to Scotland, I pursued a career as a visual artist. Although creativity remained central to my life, I gradually felt called back towards the healing professions. Alongside this journey, I have followed Buddhist teachings and contemplative practice for more than 25 years, an influence that has quietly shaped the values I bring to my work as a therapist.
 

After many years of study, personal development and professional training, counselling became the place where my experiences, values and interests came together.
 

Today, I feel privileged to accompany individuals and couples as they navigate life's challenges, strengthen their relationships and discover new ways of relating to themselves and to others.

Professional Commitment

As a Registered Member of the BACP, I work in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions and am committed to maintaining the highest standards of professional and ethical practice. I engage in regular clinical supervision and continuing professional development (CPD) to ensure my work remains safe, effective and informed by current best practice. Confidentiality, respect and the wellbeing of every client are at the heart of everything I do

I believe that true healing occurs when we address the root causes of our challenges and integrate all aspects of ourselves - mind, body, and spirit. When we honor the unique journey of each individual and provide a safe, compassionate space to explore and heal. My approach is rooted in the principles of holistic therapy, which recognizes the interconnectedness of all aspects of life and supports a greater sense of balance and well-being.
