Everyone’s story is unique, and so is the path to healing and growth. I draw from a range of evidence-based methods and therapeutic frameworks to tailor sessions that feel right for you. Here’s a look at some of the approaches I use in my counselling work:

​

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT combines mindfulness with values-based living. It helps you accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with what matters most to you.

​

Attachment Theory
Understanding your early attachment experiences can shed light on how you connect with others today. This framework supports healing by exploring trust, safety, and emotional bonds in relationships.

​

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT explores the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. It’s especially helpful for addressing patterns of anxiety, depression, or self-doubt by developing practical coping strategies.

​

Couples Therapy
Working with couples, I support open and respectful communication, deepen emotional connection, and help navigate recurring conflicts or unmet needs. The goal is mutual understanding and renewed partnership.

​

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
EFT helps uncover deep emotional needs and patterns in relationships. It supports couples and individuals in building secure, connected bonds through openness, responsiveness, and engagement.

​

Family Therapy
Families are complex systems. This approach brings family members together to explore dynamics, improve communication, and create a space where everyone’s voice matters.

​

Gestalt Therapy

Gestalt focuses on your present experience — thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations — to help you become more aware of how you relate to yourself and others. It encourages personal responsibility and integration.

​

Genograms
A genogram is like a family tree with emotional insight. It helps map relationships, patterns, and generational influences, offering a deeper understanding of your family background and its impact.

​

Interpersonal Process Therapy

This approach focuses on the therapeutic relationship as a space to explore how you relate to others. It helps uncover underlying relational patterns and build more fulfilling connections outside therapy.

​

Mindfulness
Mindfulness helps you stay grounded in the present, gently guiding you to observe your thoughts and emotions without judgment. It supports emotional regulation and resilience.

​

Narrative Therapy

We all live by stories we tell about ourselves. Narrative therapy helps you identify, explore, and reshape those stories, especially ones that may be limiting or painful.

​

Play Therapy

Traditionally used with children aged 3–12, play therapy is now increasingly recognised as helpful for teens and adults — including those who are neurodivergent. Through creative expression, it allows individuals to explore emotions and experiences when words are hard to find.

​

Person-Centred Therapy
Rooted in empathy, respect, and authenticity, this approach creates a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace.​

​

Sand Tray Therapy
Using miniature figures and a tray of sand, this non-verbal technique encourages symbolic exploration of feelings and internal experiences. It’s especially useful for trauma, grief, or when emotions feel difficult to articulate.

​

Solution-Focused Therapy

This future-oriented approach highlights your strengths and resources. We focus on what’s working and build toward achievable, meaningful changes — even from small steps.
