A local counsellor in St Albans, for turning points and in-between times.

What people come to me for

• Big life changes: leaving school, a job, a relationship, or perhaps entering retirement
• A new chapter you didn't choose, or one you did that feels harder than expected
• Feeling lost, stuck or not quite yourself, without knowing why
• Young people aged 16+ finding their way — more about counselling for young people

How it works

We start with a free 20-minute introductory call — there's nothing you need to prepare. Sessions are 50 minutes, weekly, short-term or ongoing.

Fees: £60 in person, £50 online or by phone, and £40 online for students.

I work in the Gestalt way, paying attention to what's happening for you now. If talking is hard, we can use art materials or a sand tray instead. More about grief and bereavement counselling.
