Welcome to Unity Counselling

When life feels out of balance, having a supportive space to be heard can help you find clarity and strength. At Unity Counselling, I offer a calm, confidential space where you can talk openly and begin to make sense of what’s happening.

People come to counselling for many reasons — whether it’s coping with anxiety or low mood, navigating a difficult relationship, dealing with loss or change, or simply wanting to understand themselves better. Whatever brings you here, you don’t have to face it alone.

About me & how I work

I believe counselling works best when it feels like a collaboration. My approach is person-centred at its core, meaning I place you — your story, your pace, and your goals — at the heart of our work together.

As an Integrative Counsellor, I draw from several approaches, including CBT, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis, and Psychodynamic ideas. This allows me to tailor our sessions to your unique needs — whether that’s exploring your past, finding practical strategies for the present, or building self-understanding for the future.

Clients often describe my style as warm, down-to-earth, and thoughtful, with space for both reflection and lightness where it helps. Together, we’ll work towards clarity, balance, and confidence in your life and choices.
