Who I can help
At The Calm Lantern Counselling, I believe that everyone has the potential to live a meaningful and fulfilling life. My counselling approach is person-centred, which means I can help you to discover your voice if, at times, you feel unheard and not listened to. Together, we can uncover your own strengths, values, and sense of self-worth to help you move forward in a way that feels right for you.
As a person-centred counsellor, my role is to offer understanding, empathy, and gentle guidance as you navigate your journey, creating a space where you feel truly heard, accepted, and supported.
What makes The Calm Lantern Counselling unique is the option for home-based counselling sessions. For some people, familiar surroundings can make it easier to relax and talk openly. This also helps reduce barriers such as travel difficulties, anxiety about new environments, or mobility and health challenges, provided there is a suitable space for sessions to take place safely and privately.

Whether you prefer to meet online, over the phone, or face-to-face in your own home, you’ll receive the same calm, compassionate, and confidential support — in a space that feels right for you.
