About me
If you’re searching for the right counsellor for you, the best tip I can offer is to contact a few and find someone you feel drawn to, someone you can connect with and form a warm and safe working relationship with. In my experience this really is what makes all the difference.
I’m a BACP-registered counsellor and clinical supervisor with over 15 years’ experience in private practice. I work with adults from all walks of life and offer sessions online, making support accessible wherever you are.
I have a particular interest in ADHD and autism (coming from a neurodivergent family myself) as well as perimenopause, and in understanding how these can often interact and affect wellbeing.
I also work with those who grew up with emotionally immature parents and adult children of alcoholics, supporting people with the lasting impact this can have on relationships, work, self-esteem and sense of self.
You may be experiencing difficulties in your relationships, anxiety or panic attacks, low mood or depression. Perhaps work feels overwhelming and you’re close to burnout, or you’re struggling with confidence, self-esteem, or the loss of a relationship or loved one. Life can feel heavy at times, and it’s not always easy to manage these challenges alone. Counselling offers a safe, supportive space to explore what’s going on for you and to find ways forward that feel right for you.
My approach is flexible and collaborative. I draw on a range of Humanistic therapies, including Person-Centred Therapy, Gestalt Therapy and Transactional Analysis, and tailor our work to suit you as an individual.
I offer both short-term and longer-term counselling for individuals and couples, depending on your needs.

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.
