About me

Hello, I’m a BACP-registered therapist dedicated to supporting children, young people, and adults as they navigate life’s challenges.

Counselling is a confidential, supportive space—just for you—where you can express yourself freely without fear of judgment. Together, we will explore what's going on in your life, uncover any patterns that might be causing difficulties, and work towards building emotional strength and self-awareness. My goal is to empower you to better understand yourself, develop coping skills, and feel more confident in facing life's challenges.

A big part of my work is supporting children and young people who are dealing with a variety of issues, such as anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, family difficulties, and the stress of school or peer relationships. Whether it’s struggling with school pressures, managing emotions, or coping with major life changes, I’m here to help.

I offer a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space where young people can explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace, helping them feel heard and understood.

My approach is integrative, which means I draw on different therapeutic techniques to best support the unique needs of each young person. The foundation of our work is always person-centred, ensuring that the therapy is tailored to what feels right for you and promotes your emotional growth and resilience.

Life can be especially tough for young people, with all the changes, pressures, and uncertainties that come with growing up. Whether you’re:

A child or adolescent struggling with school pressures or social challenges,
A young person dealing with intense emotions or navigating your identity,
Or someone facing difficult family issues or transitions,


I’m here to walk with you, offering compassion, understanding, and the support you need to thrive.

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.

Accredited register membership
