About me

Being a counsellor is more than just a career for me; it is a privilege. I believe that being invited into the most personal corners of someone’s life is a profound responsibility, and I am deeply committed to showing up for my clients with authenticity, warmth, and empathy.

My counselling approach is person-centred; I offer a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore whatever you wish to throughout your therapeutic journey. My belief is that you are the expert on yourself, and my role is to support you in exploring your deeper thoughts and feelings, in order to gain a greater understanding of your authentic self.

Whether you are navigating a difficult time, or simply looking to understand yourself more deeply, I am here to walk alongside you.

I have worked with clients from a range of backgrounds, with an interest in supporting the LGBTQIA+ community, and I am experienced in supporting individuals with:

  • Anxiety
  • Bereavement
  • Depression
  • Domestic Violence
  • Feelings of Sadness
  • Gender Identity
  • Low Self-Confidence

  • Relationship Problems

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
