Person-Centred counsellor/therapist
Do you feel like you’ve been living life in hard mode for too long? I am here to support you in finding your way from struggling to thriving. I am an experienced counsellor specialising in supporting neurodivergent (inc. autism, ADHD, Down Syndrome and BPD) and LGBTQ+ clients. I am kink-affirming and sex worker allied. I take a person-centred approach, not seeing you as broken or in need of fixing, but rather offering you a space and relationship that supports you to grow in the directions you choose.

This includes sensory, organisational and energy-dependent adaptations, such as welcoming stimming, sending out reminder emails, and inviting you to switch between different types of communication depending on your available spoons.
