Feeling sad or low is something we all experience at times, but when those feelings become overwhelming or start to affect daily life, it can feel incredibly lonely and heavy to carry on your own.

Counselling offers a gentle, supportive space to explore what’s happening beneath the surface – without judgment or pressure to “snap out of it”. Together, we can look at what might be contributing to your sadness or depression, such as loss, stress, self-criticism, relationship difficulties, or experiences that have left you feeling stuck or disconnected.

As an integrative counsellor, I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches, tailoring our sessions to your unique needs and pace, addressing your needs holistically – considering your mental, physical, and spiritual well-being – and not just the symptoms. This means we can work together in a way that feels right for you — whether that’s exploring the past to understand patterns, focusing on how you feel in the present, or finding practical tools to manage your low mood and intrusive thoughts. This personalised method can lead to improved self-esteem, a greater sense of control and increased resilience.

Through this process, you can begin to make sense of your feelings, understand yourself more deeply, and take small, gentle steps towards healing.

My aim is not to “fix” you – because you’re not broken. I will help you reconnect with your own strength, rebuild self-compassion and rediscover the parts of yourself that may have been lost along the way.

You don’t have to face these feelings alone. With warmth, empathy and understanding, I can support you in finding light, meaning and hope again – at your own pace.
