About Me
I'm Lindsay, a qualified integrative counsellor, and I believe that having the right support can make a real difference when life feels difficult or overwhelming.
Before becoming a counsellor, I worked in the emergency services, supporting people during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. I have spent the last seven years working within NHS adult mental health services, supporting people experiencing mental health crises and emergency situations.
These experiences have shaped the way I work today. I understand that reaching out for support can feel daunting, and I aim to offer a calm, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can feel heard and understood.
