Counselling & Psychotherapy in St Albans & Online
You don't have to
keep carrying this
alone
Sometimes life leaves us feeling lost, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns we can't quite see our way out of. I offer a space to pause, explore, and gently find your way back to yourself.
Your past holds the key to your present
I work in a humanistic, person-centred way - which means the focus is entirely on you. Not a checklist, not a formula. Just a thoughtful, unhurried space where you can begin to understand how your lived experiences have shaped the way you feel today.
Using Gestalt and person-centred approaches, sessions are collaborative and led by what you bring. There's no agenda other than helping you feel more like yourself.
More about the approachFeeling lost or stuck
When something feels off but you can't name it - this is a space to gently explore why.
Loss & Bereavement
Bereavement, change, endings. Counselling can help you hold and process what's heavy.
Relationships & identity
Patterns in how we connect with others often trace back to earlier in our lives.
Trauma & self-worth
Working at your pace, with care and no judgment, to help you feel whole again.
What to expect
Starting therapy can feel daunting. Getting in touch is the first step.
A free intro call
A relaxed 20-minute conversation to ask questions, share what's bringing you here, and see if working together feels right. No pressure, no obligation.
Your first session
We explore what's on your mind, at your pace. I'll listen carefully and start to understand your story - past and present.
Ongoing work, your way
Sessions are weekly and can be short-term or longer-term - whatever fits your life and what you're working through. Always at your pace.
Simple, transparent pricing
I believe the cost of therapy should be clear from the start - no surprises, no hidden extras.
Sessions are weekly. Whether you're looking for short-term focused work or longer-term exploration, we'll find an approach that fits.
Your first introductory call will be 20 minutes long and is free - no obligation, just a chance to talk and see if we're a good fit.
