Hello and Welcome, my name is kristy, I am counsellor and owner at Small Steps Counselling.

There are times in life when our hardest moments feel like we're walking through the thickest of fogs - where we feel alone, isolated, everything seems unclear and the path forward feels entirely uncertain.

​

At Small Steps Counselling, I provide a space where you can pause, breathe, reflect and take time to (re)find your bearings.

Working together, we'll assess where you are and where you'd like to go, and map out your way forward, combining genuine empathy and understanding with proven strategies that make sense for your life.

When life's challenges start feeling too big to manage alone, sometimes the bravest thing we can do is show up and say, "I need some support with this".

You don't have to face your challenges alone. I'm here to provide you acceptance and support.

Let's take the next step together.

Personalised, genuine, non-judgemental one-to-one Telehealth (online) Counselling, for adults (18+) seeking support to cope with life’s many challenges, transitions and emotional struggles. 

My approach is collaborative, flexible, tailored to your unique needs and set at a pace that feels right for you. 

Together, we’ll explore what’s happening for you right now, how you’ve been coping and what a brighter, more fulfilling future looks like

Counselling isn’t about quick fixes – it’s about creating long-lasting change.

You’ll leave our sessions feeling heard, understood and with a renewed sense of clarity and confidence to navigate life’s ups and downs.

A supportive, confidential space for mental health therapists - counsellors, psychologists and social workers - to process any personal struggles, protect their wellbeing and ensure their client work remains ethical, effective, sustainable and fulfilling.

What I offer is Personal Counselling - not professional supervision.

Our sessions focus on supporting YOU through whatever challenging personal experiences you're facing.

Why?

Because your wellbeing matters - both for you and for those who you support.

Even therapists need someone to talk to sometimes!

​

One-way Peer Supervision and Student Support (tutoring) also available.
