About me

Welcome to my page. Whatever has brought you here, I hope I can help. I’ve worked with those who are struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, people pleasing, burnout and trauma related difficulties. Feeling stuck, low, overwhelmed or confused can be very isolating. I hope to walk by your side while we navigate your inner world, tend to the parts that need tending to, process what has become messy and start to work towards a fulfilling positive future. It’s okay if you’re not sure why you have come to see me, just that things aren’t feeling right for you. We can work it out together. 

I’m a humanistic integrative therapist, which means I draw from a combination of therapeutic approaches to offer a unique approach to what my clients bring. My key areas are, attachment treatment, unconscious processes and relational patterns. My approach is open, collaborative, non-judgmental and exploratory. 

Working as an anxiety and trauma-informed therapist, I have had the pleasure to see growth in self-confidence, healthier relationships, and greater well-being within my clients, and it is always an honour to be a part of their journey. Our mental well-being can have a huge effect on our lives, whether that's in our work, in our relationships, or just our general sense of self.

I work collaboratively in a non-judgmental space in the centre of Arnold where everything is welcomed and accepted. It can feel overwhelming to start therapy, and therefore it is vital we go at your pace, and I actively encourage open feedback and communication between us as we go. I can hold you through the ebbs and flows of therapy, and together we can gain clarity, understanding and self-worth which is what we all deserve. 

If you would like to know more about me, please get in touch. I offer a free 15-minute chat where we can get to know each other a bit better and see if we would be a good match.

Couples Therapy

Are you feeling stuck in conflict, disconnected or unsure about the future of your relationship? I work with couples who are struggling with connection, intimacy, betrayal and some that just feel disconnected within their relationship. The key work for us to do together is understanding each partners patterns and the links to the past, begin open communication and collaboratively build safe foundations to build your relationship on. My therapy space is for you to both feel heard and understood without judgment or shame. My aim is to help you strengthen your connection, navigate conflict with compassion, and create a relationship that feels secure, authentic, and alive.

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.
