• Relationship challenges or life transitions
• Your goals for therapy

You will complete a brief assessment form prior to your first session to ensure our work together is appropriately structured.

What is Counselling?

Counselling provides a confidential, reflective space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. It supports you in gaining insight, understanding patterns, and processing challenges in a safe and structured way. Counselling can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and personal development.

It focuses on understanding your lived experience and developing greater self-awareness.

What is CBT Psychotherapy

CBT (Cognitive Behavioural psychotherapy) is a structured, evidence-based approach that explores the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. It helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and supports the development of practical strategies to create meaningful change.

CBT psychotherapy is particularly effective for anxiety, low mood, stress, and emotional regulation difficulties.

Couples sessions provide a supportive space to explore communication patterns, relationship challenges, and emotional needs. The aim is to help partners better understand one another and develop healthier ways of relating

Life coaching is focused on forward movement, clarity, and intentional growth.

While psychotherapy addresses emotional distress and mental health concerns, life coaching is designed for individuals who feel generally well but are seeking structured support to move forward in specific areas of life.

Coaching may be appropriate if you are looking for:

• Greater clarity around personal or professional goals
• Confidence development and mindset strengthening
• Support navigating life or career transitions
• Improved communication or decision-making
• Accountability for behavioural change

My coaching approach is structured and practical, integrating evidence-based CBT principles and NLP techniques to support sustainable change.

Life coaching is not a substitute for psychotherapy and is not suitable for the treatment of clinical mental health conditions. If therapeutic support is more appropriate, this can be discussed during an initial consultation.

Is This Right for You?

Counselling & CBT Psychotherapy may be appropriate if you are experiencing:

• Persistent anxiety or excessive worry
• Low mood or loss of motivation
• Emotional overwhelm
• Relationship difficulties
• Repeating patterns that feel difficult to change
• Significant life transitions affecting your wellbeing
• Distress that is impacting daily functioning

Psychotherapy provides structured, therapeutic support to address emotional and psychological difficulties in depth.

Life Coaching may be appropriate if you:

• Feel generally emotionally stable but want clarity or direction
• Are seeking support with goal-setting or accountability
• Want to strengthen confidence or mindset
• Are navigating career or personal development decisions
• Are looking to improve communication or performance

Coaching focuses on growth, strategy, and forward movement rather than clinical mental health treatment.

If you are unsure which pathway is most suitable, this can be explored during an initial consultation.

Whether you are seeking psychotherapy or coaching, beginning this process can feel significant.
