Welcome to AID Counselling
At AID Counselling, counselling is more than a profession for me—it’s a deeply personal calling. I combine professional expertise with lived experiences to provide a compassionate and insightful approach.
About Me
As a dedicated counsellor, I bring a unique blend of academic knowledge and real-world experience to our sessions.
I am a mum to two amazing teenagers who have taught me many life lessons along the way. As a parent I have gained unique insights into the challenges that families and individuals face.
My personal journey through separation has given me a deep understanding of the emotional and practical challenges involved, leading to a fulfilling new chapter in my life.
These personal experiences, combined with my professional expertise, allow me to connect with clients on a deeper level, offering support that is both compassionate and effective.
My Services
I offer expert counselling services to support you and your family through various challenges. Whether you need help with family dynamics, youth issues, or personal growth, my compassionate approach is here to guide you toward positive change and deeper understanding.
My Services
Family Counselling
Families are the foundation of our lives, but they can also be the source of some of our most challenging and complex issues. Whether it’s navigating the ups and downs of parenting, resolving conflicts between family members, or adjusting to major life transitions, families often face situations that require guidance and support. I offer family counselling services that are designed to strengthen and restore harmony within the family unit.
My approach to family counselling is embedded in the belief that every family has the potential to overcome its challenges when provided with the right tools and a supportive environment. I focus on fostering better understanding, enhancing communication, and strengthening emotional bonds. By creating a safe, non-judgmental space, I encourage each family member to express their thoughts and feelings openly, helping to uncover underlying issues and work toward lasting resolutions.
In our sessions, we will work together to address the unique dynamics of your family, identifying patterns that may be contributing to conflict or misunderstandings. Whether you are dealing with the everyday complexities of parenting, intergenerational conflicts, or the stress of significant life changes, my goal is to help your family navigate these challenges with greater understanding, empathy, and cooperation.
Through this process, we aim to build stronger, more resilient family bonds that can withstand the tests of time. I am here to support you and your family as you work towards a more harmonious and connected future.
Youth Counselling
Today’s youth face a multitude of challenges, from the academic pressures of school to the social dynamics of friendships and the often-confusing journey of self-discovery. These years can be particularly turbulent as young people grapple with questions of identity, self-esteem, and their place in the world. I recognise the unique challenges of adolescence and the pressures that young people face.
Youth counselling services help young individuals navigate these formative years with greater confidence and resilience. I create a supportive and non-judgmental environment where they feel safe to express their thoughts and emotions openly. Through our sessions, we work on developing essential skills, such as emotional regulation, effective communication, and problem-solving strategies, that can help them manage the challenges they encounter.
Beyond just coping, my aim is to equip young individuals with the tools they need to thrive. Together, we explore their strengths, build their self-confidence, and equip them with the tools they need to face life head-on. Whether they are dealing with anxiety, peer pressure, academic stress, or personal challenges, I am here to guide them through these critical years, helping them to grow into healthy, well-rounded individuals who are prepared for the future.
Reunification Counselling
Having personally navigated the difficult journey of separation and the fulfilling process of reunification; I bring a compassionate and experienced perspective. I offer a unique and empathetic perspective in my reunification counselling services. I understand the emotional complexities, the delicate balance of rebuilding trust, and the challenges that each family member may face during this transition.
My approach is centred on creating a safe and supportive environment where everyone’s voice is heard, and each concern is addressed with care. I work closely with families to facilitate open communication, restore broken bonds, and guide them toward a place of mutual understanding and respect. Whether you’re dealing with the aftermath of a separation or working through ongoing conflicts, I am here to support you every step of the way.
Together, we can help your family reconnect, rebuild trust, and move forward with confidence paving the way for a healthier, happier future.
Relationship Counselling
I bring a deep understanding and empathy to my relationship counselling services. I recognise that every relationship is unique, with its own set of challenges, and that maintaining a healthy and fulfilling connection requires effort, understanding, and commitment from both partners.
In our sessions, I focus on helping couples enhance their communication, ensuring that each partner feels heard and valued. We work together to identify and resolve underlying conflicts, addressing the root causes rather than just the symptoms. I aim to guide you in building strong, resilient relationships that can weather life’s challenges

We will explore effective strategies for managing disagreements, improving intimacy, and fostering a deeper emotional bond.
