About me
Perhaps you're struggling with the pressure to meet certain expectations. You may be finding it difficult to switch off, feeling angry, numb or weighed down by responsibility or questioning whether the life you're building feels as fulfilling as you'd hoped.
I support clients navigating life's challenges and changes related to identity, relationships and work. I often work with thoughtful men and women experiencing anxiety, depression, perfectionism, low self-esteem, overwhelm, restlessness or a sense of disconnection from themselves and others.
I also work with neurodivergent clients, including those with ADHD and dyslexia, who may be making sense of a diagnosis or developing a deeper understanding of themselves.
My approach is warm, collaborative and at times challenging. Together, we can explore difficult questions and reflect on past experiences and ways of coping that may be influencing how you think, feel and relate to those around you. This may include exploring perfectionism, people-pleasing or other behaviours that may once have protected you but are no longer helping you in the same way.
My experience spans agency work, the NHS IAPT service and private practice. I have also supported parents experiencing perinatal mental health difficulties. Prior to becoming a therapist, I spent many years in a commercial environment, which deepened my understanding of the way work pressures can impact mental health and wellbeing.
Sessions are available in person in Clapham and online. I can offer flexibility to suit you.
My Approach
My approach is Integrative. This flexible method recognises no single approach works for everyone and enables us to adapt the work to your needs and goals. Together we can explore how you understand yourself, your relationships and how your past might be influencing your present.

Training, qualifications & experience
- Qualified Integrative Counsellor with a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling.
- Registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), adhering to its ethical framework, to ensure our work together is conducted with the utmost care and professionalism.
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.
