I am an integrative counsellor with a strong foundation in person-centred therapy, supported by over 15 years of experience working with vulnerable young people in educational and community settings. My professional background has involved providing tailored support to individuals with complex emotional and social needs, helping them to build resilience, confidence, and independence. Alongside my training, I volunteer as a counsellor with Youthline, where I work therapeutically with young people experiencing a range of challenges, including anxiety, low mood, and family difficulties. This role has strengthened my skills in active listening, risk assessment, safeguarding, and maintaining appropriate professional boundaries. My experience is underpinned by ongoing professional development, including training in safeguarding and ethical practice. I am committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and non-judgemental environment where clients feel supported to explore their experiences and work towards meaningful change.
