About me
I specialise in panic attacks, social anxieties, depression and relationship difficulties.
I use mindful and compassion-based therapy which will help you to ease your overwhelming and destructive thoughts by addressing the underlying root cause of your struggles.
By identifying and challenging unhelpful thoughts and feelings, to fuel their anxiety, my clients are able to break free from panic attacks, and extremely low moods, and be able to re-connect with the outside world again.
You will learn tools to calm yourself down when panic takes over, or how to take yourself out of these feelings, feel more empowered, and believe that YOU are the one who is in control and not your thoughts.
There are ways to break the cycle, give yourself a chance to feel free again.

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.

Additional information
I offer a free 15-minute initial telephone consultation.
This is an exploratory conversation. As well as talking about your current challenges and your hopes for therapy, you will also learn more about how I work and about the agreement we would enter into together. It might be that one session is enough for your immediate need. There is no obligation to book any more sessions.
We will agree on a regular day and time for our weekly or fortnightly sessions. I can offer you short - or long-term therapy and the number of sessions will ultimately be of your choosing.
