Therapeutic Counselor

“I'm a professional and qualified counsellor, working with adults online, by telephone and in person by home visit”

About Me

I offer a supportive space for adults seeking clarity and a way forward. As a professional and qualified counsellor, I understand life can be demanding. I meet you where you are, whether online, by telephone, or through discreet home visits. This flexibility allows us to build a trusting relationship that fits your schedule and comfort. We'll work together to navigate difficult feelings and help you move forward at your own pace.

Approach

Sessions begin with a simple check-in and a shared plan that suits your pace, whether we connect online, by phone or during discreet home visits in Portsmouth. I use practical structure and gentle pacing—breathing and grounding tools, careful exploration of past harm, and focused work on patterns that fuel anxiety, addiction or relationship strain. Between sessions you may get brief reflections or small tasks tailored to your needs to keep progress steady without overwhelm. This steady, collaborative way of working often helps those facing stress, trauma or major life transitions.
