About me
I wish you the warmest welcome and I am delighted that you found your way here.
With my background working in the third sector, business and entertainment has given me a wonderful grounding in connecting with people from many different walks of life. Working as a therapist for well over a decade has deepened my appreciation of the rich tapestry of cultures, perspectives and talents which make us all unique. This informs my respectful and empathic approach to each individual client.
My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief that true wellbeing comes from living in alignment with your authentic self. This means that your thoughts, feelings and actions are working in harmony, rather than pulling you in different directions. When we feel out of step with ourselves—confused, conflicted, or disconnected—it often shows up as anxiety, low mood, frustration, or a sense of feeling stuck.
If you are feeling anxious or depressed and don't know why, angry or upset, sad or just empty or if you have suffered a bereavement or a life changing event please give me a call or email your thoughts to discuss a way forward. I look forward to hearing from you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I graduated from the Metanoia Institute in Ealing, which is recognised internationally as a place of teaching and learning excellence. I gained a Diploma and BA (Hons) degree in counselling. I am a certified Relationship Coach and Supervisor. These qualifications have enabled me to work long and short term with adults and young people in private practice since 2010.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
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.
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.
