Back when I started my counselling practice, I worked within Youth counselling agencies, and directly with the homeless community-providing counselling support to the disadvantaged, and people who were struggling to find their place in the world. This gave me immense experience supporting people who had suffered from childhood trauma, attachment difficulties, learning difficulties, sexual abuse (SA), family dysfunctions, addiction issues, self-harm, emotional regulation challenges, personality disorders, depression, anxiety, and anger issues- just to name a few areas that covered the client's general need for counselling support.

Since then, I continued my counselling career setting up my private clinical counselling practice in a face-to-face setting- clients would come to my office room for their therapy sessions. Alongside these times, I started to grow my online presence and that is when the birth of my online, video counselling service began.

In the now, I run my counselling practice solely online, holding all counselling sessions virtually through the means of video counselling. I really must say that through my experience as a counsellor, some of my best work and client's change and healing has been provided in this manner- online counselling, online therapy, virtual therapy, video counselling, E-counselling.
