I counsel adults around a wide range of issues. ​These include: anxiety, family & relationship issues, depression and low self-esteem. My core training is in Transactional Analysis counselling and psychotherapy; I have additional training and experience in working with boarding school survivors.
Inner change can happen at any point in our lives, when we are willing to take that first step. ​ "Start close in, don’t take the second step or the third, start with the first thing close in, the step you don’t want to take." ​ ​(David Whyte, River Flow: New and Selected Poems).
