I'm Aimee, I'm a Counselling Psychologist. I trained about 17 years ago now, and I work with all kinds of people. So some people struggling with diagnosed mental health conditions, or with just day-to-day life difficulties, so it's a whole range. And in terms of how I can help you, it really depends on what you want help with.
