About me
I am an experienced clinical supervisor and counsellor, based in West Sussex (Horsham/Henfield/Storrington/Steyning/Hassocks/Brighton/Shoreham-by-Sea). I offer sessions in person as well as online.
As a supervisor, I have a lot of experience in the educational setting as well as in private practice.
I work with a variety of clients, including children, young people, adults and families. I have worked within criminal justice settings, schools and counselling agencies. I have supported clients with issues such as: gender identity, transgender, low self-esteem, depression, self-harm, stress, trauma, loss, adjusting to change, substance misuse, relational conflicts, separation, divorce, parenting difficulties, anger issues, feelings of being lost and stuck.
As an integrative practitioner, I draw from several psychotherapeutic models (eg. person-centred, Gestalt, TA) in an effort to maximise the help I can give to individual clients. Currently, I work at a couple of local Colleges and run my private practice. I offer face-to-face and online appointments. Sessions can be in English or Polish.

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.
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.

Further information
My aim is to enable each client to explore and resolve issues in the way that suits them best personally. I believe that many of our problems stem from long-term over-adaptation to our external world with not enough attention being paid to the truth of our internal world. As a result we may feel we do not fit our skin or we may be living a life that is unfulfilling and we can end up feeling stressed, depressed, anxious, angry, and fearful about a whole range of life situations.
I trust that each one of us has the resources within ourselves to live life to its full potential. On the journey of therapy with me, I will support you to find your own ways to reconnect with yourself and get in touch with your emotions. I will help you to clarify and understand why your life feels overwhelming. By gaining the awareness and insight, the process of your growth and lasting change can begin and the quality of your internal and external life can improve.
I am trained integratively and I apply various techniques and interventions to suit your needs and ways you see the world. As an integrative therapist I use a range of theories including, humanistic, psychodynamic, CBT, Gestalt, and Transactional Analysis. I offer you the non-judgemental, empathic space where you can, at your own pace, find your answers, feel heard and understood.
