Deeper Still Counselling
You are not alone.
You're here because you feel a longing for change, for relief, for something to feel different. Whether you have been ruminating for years or for minutes, I believe there is no present or past hurt that cannot be met, challenged, and transformed - even when life feels impossible. If it feels like you are too far gone, or in the dark depths of anxiety, depression, relationships, grief, trauma, or sin - there is a promise of grace for you. And an invitation to bring your impossibles, your hurts, your doubts, your frustrations, with all sincerity. Through counselling, I would be honoured to walk this journey with you toward true and lasting healing in the places the that hurt the most.
What to Expect
As a counsellor my character and foundation are highly relational. You can expect authenticity, empathy, humour, wisdom, and a straight-forward approach rooted in Biblical Truth and evidence-based practice from the world of psychology.
I offer a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where all are respected and welcome. Wherever you are in your walk, I will meet you there.
​
Through counselling, we have the opportunity to connect with our own stories, and we have the space to make sense of them. I am here to walk alongside you where you can safely explore your hurts, questions, laments, and fear - without judgement.

Treatment
​​
​Mountains of research show the number one predictor of positive outcomes in therapy is the quality of the therapeutic relationship itself. This is fascinating to me​ and points to our collaborative and perpetual priority.
​
My approach to therapy is completely individualised and tailored to you and your goals. That said, it is important for you to know where I specialise and continue to study. I utilise an integrated combination of modalities including: Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Solutions Focused, Internal Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, along with a number of other evidence-based, biblically-aligned psychotherapies - everyone is different and so your therapy plan should be too.
​​
Despite methodology, we will work collaboratively to create meaningful goals to support your path to a purposeful and congruent life. You are the expert on you, I am here to listen, learn, guide, and teach.
​
My passion is to walk alongside you and my joy is to help you toward a life and version of you that you truly want, and that is possible. There is hope, healing, and grace abounding, you need only welcome it...

Far from God?
Maybe you’re not ready to talk to Him. Maybe you feel wronged, angry, or weighed down by pain and questions that don’t seem to have answers. Maybe you’re wondering where He is - or who He is. Maybe you’re unsure of where to start, or where to begin again after being gone for so long…
Wherever you are, I promise to walk with you at your pace. My heart is to help bridge the distance between you and Jesus - between your trauma, your anxiety, your depression. Whether you’re carrying the weight of your own sin and shame, or living with the effects of sin against you, this is a safe place. A place where you can safely explore your hurts, doubts, questions, laments, and fear without judgement.
By inviting the Holy Spirit into places of pain, there is hope for healing, for restoration, and for faith to build. And it’s okay if you’re not there yet. Come as you are - I will meet you there, and He will too.
There is nowhere you could find yourself that His love is not deeper still...
