About me

Grief rarely arrives cleanly.

It might look like exhaustion that sleep does not fix. A low hum of anxiety with no obvious cause. The strange flatness of going through the motions while something inside has quietly shifted. It might follow a death, but it might also follow the end of a relationship, a serious diagnosis, a role you had to leave behind, or a future that will not happen now.

Whatever brought you here, you are welcome to bring it exactly as it is.

I work with adults living alongside grief, bereavement, significant loss, and major life transitions, both in person at The Practice Rooms in Bath and online across the UK. 

My approach is steady, relational, and grounded in presence. I do not see grief as an illness to cure or something to move through on a schedule. Instead, I offer a setting where the full weight of what you are carrying can be spoken about honestly, including the parts that feel contradictory, messy, or difficult to share elsewhere.

Alongside my private practice, I volunteer as an end-of-life companion at a local hospice. That work sits at the bedside with dying people and their families, and it has shaped my comfort with conversations about mortality, sorrow, and what matters when life changes completely. I also co-facilitate community Death Cafés in Bath, offering open, undirected conversations about death and living.

I work in English and Polish.

Training, qualifications & experience

I hold a Level 5 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and am an Accredited Member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (MNCPS Acc.) and an Individual Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I work in accordance with their ethical codes, attend regular clinical supervision, and maintain ongoing professional development.

My background includes sustained frontline work supporting individuals and families through bereavement support volunteering and as an end-of-life companion within a local hospice.

I carry comprehensive professional indemnity insurance and hold an DBS certificate.
