About me
Compassionate Counselling for Individuals & Couples 🌿
Life can feel overwhelming at times—relationships, past experiences, and inner struggles can leave us feeling stuck, lost, or alone. If you’re struggling, you don’t have to go through it on your own. I’m here to listen, support, and help you make sense of what’s happening in your life.
I’m a qualified psychodynamic and relationship counsellor with 25 years of experience, offering a safe and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns in a way that feels meaningful to you. Over the years, I’ve worked with individuals and couples through universities, Camden Women & Health, Relate, and in my own private practice.
How Counselling Can Help
Sometimes, we find ourselves repeating patterns in relationships, feeling weighed down by anxiety, or struggling with self-doubt. Counselling offers a space to gently unpick what’s underneath these struggles, helping you move toward greater self-awareness, relief, and emotional resilience.
🌿 I work with people facing:
Relationship and family difficulties
Anxiety, panic attacks & depression
Low self-esteem & identity struggles
Adoption issues & life transitions
Work stress & career challenges
OCD, compulsive behaviours & anger management
Self-harm, trauma & sexual abuse
Grief, loss & bereavement
A Safe & Supportive Space Just for You
Starting therapy can feel like a big step. That’s why I offer a warm, non-judgmental space—where you are free to talk, reflect, and be yourself. Whether we meet via video call or in my comfortable counselling rooms in Oakham, I will always work at a pace that feels right for you.
A Relational Approach to Therapy
The heart of my work is the therapeutic relationship—a space where trust, warmth, and understanding can develop. Together, we explore the deeper emotions, experiences, and patterns that shape your life, helping you find new ways to relate to yourself and others.
Let’s Start with a Conversation
Choosing the right counsellor is important, and I want you to feel comfortable. That’s why I offer a free, no-obligation phone consultation—so we can talk about what brings you here and how I work, with no pressure to commit.
As a registered member of the BACP, I work ethically, have regular supervision, and continue to develop my practice so I can offer you the best possible support.
🌿 If you’re ready to take the first step, I’d love to hear from you.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
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).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
