Psychotherapeutic Counselling - Tailored To You
In Person Counselling West Malling & Online Therapy
I am passionate about helping people overcome challenges & lead a more satisfying life.
I have many years experience helping people with life’s difficulties and challenges like:
My approach to counselling is built around trust, creating a space where you can talk openly about what’s going on for you and how it’s affecting you. We work together to establish what you want to change and how to achieve it, in a way that fits you. I offer a free initial consultation, so you can ask any questions you may have.
I work integratively which brings together different approaches in a coherent way. Integrative therapy is tailored to you and helps address a range of issues more effectively than using only one approach.
Therapy doesn’t have to be weekly or long-term to be effective. I work at a pace that feels realistic for you, taking into account time, life commitments, and financial demands, while still creating space for therapeutic change and understanding. Where appropriate, I can offer Single Session Therapy or shorter Solution Focused Brief Therapy too.
Get in touch for a free initial consultation to make the change you want.

First responders carry more than the calls they answer. The constant exposure to trauma, high-pressure decisions, long shifts, and public scrutiny can take a real toll over time. My mental health services for first responders and emergency services personnel is built around the unique realities of the job. Whether you’re facing burnout, anxiety, depression, PTSD, or just feeling worn down, I provide an opportunity for you to speak openly and confidentially with someone who understands the culture and demands of your work.
I support paramedics mental health needs after critical incidents, cumulative trauma, and compassion fatigue. I work closely with police and mental health concerns such as operational stress, hypervigilance, and the impact of shift work on family life. I also focus on the mental health of firefighters, including the effects of repeated exposure to crisis scenes and the pressure to always stay strong. My approach is practical, confidential, and tailored to the challenges you face both on and off duty.
