About me
I offer one to one counselling and psychotherapy, supervision for counsellors and psychotherapists, and spiritual integration. I am also a trained mindfulness meditation teacher and qualified life coach.
My intention is to offer a safe and trustworthy space in which you can explore what it is to be you. And while I have extensive training and experience, I consider this the work I needed to do to arrive in the therapist’s chair as a human being: not an expert who tells you what to do or give advice.
Someone alongside.
Someone to whom you can bare your heart and soul.
Someone who will encourage your curiosity and help you cultivate self-awareness.
I am a Gestalt psychotherapist, and also heavily influenced by Buddhist psychology and practices: I therefore work across the humanistic and transpersonal approaches. You may want to understand a little more about what this means, so I invite you to explore my website to get a sense if my approach feels a good fit for your needs:
Do get in touch if you have any questions.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
