About me
Finding the right therapist can be challenging, especially when you're unsure of what you need. I believe that the key to successful therapy lies in the therapeutic relationship. I strive to be genuine, warm, and even bring some humour when appropriate - I believe that a smile and a laugh can help create a safe and meaningful space for our sessions together.
I am a Polyvagal informed therapist - when working with trauma, anxiety or depression, we can identify how your nervous system is responding. We can work to process and heal through a combination of therapeutic interventions, mindfulness and recognition of your physiological and biological responses. Combining psychological theory with scientific methods.
If you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed by your own thoughts, I offer a compassionate approach to help guide you back on track. Whether you're struggling with life goals or past traumas, I am here to help you navigate your emotions and desires in a friendly and supportive environment.
Facing your fears and addressing your troubles can be daunting, but I am here to support you every step of the way as you take those first brave steps towards healing.
Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, working through challenging relationship difficulties, addiction, or past trauma - my therapy service offers a secure, caring, and completely private environment to work together.
My therapy provides a safe space to discuss emotions and, via therapeutic methods and intervention, identify a new way forward.
Many people go through periods of feeling ‘stuck’ in life - Therapy can offer a new perspective, developing deeper self awareness and clarity.

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.
