About Angela

Licensed Therapist

I run an independent private practice offering counselling and clinical supervision, with a particular specialism of working with couples. I have extensive experience supporting couples through relationship difficulties, communication breakdown, separation, emotional disconnection and periods of significant change. My approach is creative, integrative and relational, allowing me to tailor the work to each couple and the unique dynamics within their relationship.

Alongside my couples work, I also support individuals experiencing a range of emotional and life challenges. My previous work with children, young people and families has given me a broad understanding of relationships, family dynamics and the impact that significant life changes can have on emotional wellbeing.

Beyond my clinical practice, I design and facilitate retreats, wellness days, workshops and corporate wellbeing events, creating opportunities for connection, reflection, restoration and personal growth. I offer individual and group sound bath sessions, using sound and vibration to encourage deep relaxation, reduce stress and support emotional and physical wellbeing.

My style of counselling

Counselling is a type of therapy which gives you a safe and confidential space to explore and address any difficulties or issues you are facing. It’s a chance to make sense of what’s going on for you in a calm and supportive environment, without the fear of judgement or criticism.

I am predominantly a person-centred counsellor, but I may also use a more integrative approach if it’s appropriate. This could mean we explore how your early life and relationships have shaped you and your current behaviours, patterns and sense of self. We will always focus on what is important to you and you will be supported to find new perspectives, make positive changes and feel stronger.

We can adopt a time-limited approach, or the number of sessions can be open-ended. We will review our sessions together to make sure the work is positive and beneficial to you. 

“Thank you for everything – your support and guidance has helped me through a lot over the past months and it means a lot to me”
