A space for you
Ascent Space Counselling is a modern, virtual sanctuary for those navigating major life transitions, whether grief and loss, career change, identity shifts, or other profound challenges.
As your dedicated counsellor, I offer a space to pause, reconnect, and step confidently into your next chapter.
My approach blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a powerful evidence-based model for creating psychological flexibility, with person-centred therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), trauma-informed care and mindfulness. Together we explore what matters most to you, build skills to unhook from unhelpful thoughts, and take meaningful action toward a life that feels rich and purposeful.
Every session is a collaborative process that honours your lived experience and moves at a pace that feels right for you. You will be truly seen, heard, and valued. We draw on your inner wisdom, loosen the grip of what no longer serves you, and chart a course that feels lighter, more spacious, and fully aligned with who you are becoming.
Begin your ascent today.
