About me
I offer a therapeutic space deeply rooted in relationship and grounded in curiosity. Together, we create space to explore your inner world, your nervous system, your emotional landscape, and the stories your body may have been holding for a long time.
I don't believe our struggles exist in isolation from the conditions we live within. Alongside your personal experiences, we can also pay attention to the wider cultural, societal, and relational influences that shape our lives, our relationships, and our sense of self. I hold an awareness of the ways modern life can impact our hearts, bodies, minds, and capacity for connection.
The more-than-human world also informs my work. I am interested in the relationship between psyche, body, imagination, land, and belonging, and how reconnecting with these deeper relational layers of life can support a fuller sense of connection with ourselves and the living world around us.
My approach draws from somatic psychotherapy, parts work, eco-psychology, and depth-oriented practice. While talking is an important part of therapy, we do not have to rely solely on words. Depending on what feels supportive for you, sessions may include breath awareness, mindful movement, imagery, creative exploration, sound, or spending time outdoors. We may also pay close attention to bodily sensations and nervous system responses, approaching them as meaningful expressions of experience rather than problems to solve.
Somatic work invites us to slow down and stay curious about experience as it unfolds, rather than rushing to analyse or interpret it. We work collaboratively, with careful attention to pacing, consent, choice, grounding, and safety. Together, we explore what helps you feel more resourced, more able to recognise your own boundaries, and more able to stay connected to yourself during moments of vulnerability, uncertainty, or intensity.
I care deeply about creating a space where people can arrive fully as themselves, without needing to shrink, perform, or explain away who they are. I value the complexity and nuance of human experience, and recognise that our lives are always unfolding within relationships; with ourselves, with others, and with the wider world.
For me, therapy is ultimately an invitation into deeper relationship: with your body, your emotions, your imagination, your instincts, your longing, your grief, and the more-than-human world that holds us. I do not see people as broken or in need of fixing. Many of our ways of being have developed in response to the relationships, systems, histories, and circumstances we have lived through. Together, we make space for what has been protected, adapted, silenced, or forgotten, allowing new possibilities for connection, meaning, and aliveness to emerge.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and work in alignment with the BACP Ethical Framework. My practice is supported through regular supervision, peer collaboration, and a deep respect for my own unfolding, emergent process of becoming.
My own path has been shaped by a lifelong love of movement, music, story, and the wild. I offer this work as a living, breathing, evolving practice; a space of curiosity, soul-tending, and deep listening.

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.
Areas of counselling I deal with
Fees
£55.00 - £95.00
Additional information
We begin with a free 15-minute Zoom Discovery call
Following that sessions are 1 hour.
I offer three core pathways of payment: Oak, Birch and Willow. There is also a Pay-It-Forward option and an option for an arranged amount to be agreed that might sit somewhere between pathways.
Willow Pathway
For those in tender or fragile seasons.
Life feels stretched or uncertain, and resources are limited. Willow pathway is held gently to ensure access to therapy when it is most needed.
Session fee: £55
Note: Spaces on the Willow pathway are limited to ensure the sustainability of my practice.
Birch Pathway
For those whose forest sometimes feels dense or tangled.
You manage day-to-day life, but finances, work, or care responsibilities can feel heavy. Choosing this pathway allows you to make space for therapeutic support without overextending.
Session fee: £75
Oak Pathway
For those whose roots feel steady and deep.
Life feels financially comfortable, and you are able to participate in this space with ease. Choosing Oak pathway can also help hold space for others, supporting accessibility for those on the Birch and Willow pathways.
Session fee: £95
Pay-It-Forward Option
If you are in a position to do so, you can choose a Pay-It-Forward contribution above the Oak pathway fee, helping to hold therapy places for those who need access onto the Birch or Willow pathways. This allows more people to engage in therapy and nurtures a sense of community care and shared support.
Third-Party or Subsidised Payments
There are times when therapy is funded or partially supported by someone else, such as a family member, partner, or organisation. When sessions are being paid for in this way, the pathway chosen should reflect the financial capacity of the person or organisation offering the support, rather than your own. You are welcome to share these pathway options with them so they can select what feels appropriate and sustainable.
Choosing Your Pathway
I trust you to choose the pathway that fits your current reality. This is not about value, worth, or “better” or “worse”; it is about matching what you can give to what you need. Please do feel free to ask for an amount that sits between pathways if that feels best.
