Hello, I'm Mel
I’m a qualified counsellor with over 10 years of experience working with both adults and children. I offer a warm, empathetic, and non-judgemental space where you can explore whatever challenges you're facing, whether that’s something from your past, what you’re going through right now, or worries about the future.
I use an integrative approach to counselling, which means I draw on different therapeutic models to suit your individual needs. Some people come to therapy looking for a space to talk and be heard, others may want more structure or strategies to help manage anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or low mood.
Over the years, I’ve worked in a range of settings, including the NHS, schools, and charities. This has given me valuable experience supporting people from all walks of life, including clients with ADHD and Autism.
My priority is to create an inclusive, safe, and accepting environment where you can be yourself without fear of judgement.
I’m passionate about helping people:
-
Understand themselves better
-
Build healthier relationships
-
Develop tools to manage life’s stresses
-
Explore their identity and values
-
Heal from past experiences
Depending on your needs, I might integrate mindfulness techniques to help calm your mind and manage emotional overwhelm. I can also help you to understand your relationship patterns, both with your self and with others and support you with creating healthy boundaries and genuine connections.
I believe that therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating. It can be a space where you're met with compassion, curiosity, and support and where small steps can lead to meaningful change.
I work with Adults and children from 10 years old.
