About me
I came to counselling later in life. For most of my working life I was doing something else entirely, and it was my own experience of being a client, working with a therapist who helped me a great deal, that eventually led me here.
I have always been interested in how people think, feel and make sense of their lives. That curiosity, combined with seeing what good counselling can do, made the direction clear.
What I believe
My own life goal is a simple one: to feel connected to myself, to the people around me, and to the natural world, and to help others do the same.
That belief shapes everything about how I work. Alongside my private practice I volunteer as a bereavement counsellor for Cruse Scotland, sitting with people at some of the most difficult points in their lives. Outside the therapy room I lead cold water swimming sessions for Icebreakers, a local wellbeing charity, and recently qualified as a cold water therapy instructor.
