Professional Counselling in Ilkley and Online – Here to Support You
There are times in life when things don’t go as planned. The future we once envisioned may feel out of reach, and daily life can become a struggle. You may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or simply unable to cope with the challenges you’re facing. If this resonates with you, please know—you are not alone, and you’re in the right place to begin finding support.
As a qualified, compassionate counsellor based in Ilkley, I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where you can explore what’s going on for you. With empathy and care, I’ll support you in working through your difficulties and help you move towards a sense of clarity, resilience, and emotional wellbeing.
About Me
In addition to my private practice in Ilkley, I work as a counsellor and psychotherapist at Head Agenda in Leeds and as a Franchisee Practitioner at the Oakdale Centre in Harrogate. I am committed to offering a professional and ethical service grounded in respect, integrity, and genuine care for my clients.
I am a registered member of two respected professional bodies:
-
The British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)
-
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS)
Being a member of these organisations means I adhere to their rigorous ethical standards and am dedicated to ongoing professional development. You can learn more about their codes of ethics here:
Whether you’re facing anxiety, trauma, sexual violence, loss, low self-esteem, or relationship issues, I will work alongside you with sensitivity and professionalism to help you find the right path forward.
