About me
Please note all sessions continue to be online only.
Are you tired of overthinking and never feeling good enough?
Are your relationships often difficult or disappointing?
Are you struggling to relax and enjoy life?
I can help you to deal with troubled emotions and difficult relationships so you can move beyond survival mode and start to thrive.
The people I work with are often successful in many ways but under the surface feel like someone else entirely with a pattern of overachieving followed by emotional and physical exhaustion.
I work by offering you a space where you are really listened to and understood. I ask questions to help deepen your understanding of yourself and help you to identify unhelpful patterns that are keeping you stuck. I will support you to drop the struggle with your inner critic and model an empathic and honest relationship that will become the basis of a positive relationship with yourself.
By the time we’re finished, you will have a clear sense of who you are. You’ll be able to recognise your needs and be able to express your emotions in a way that means your needs are more likely to be met. You’ll be able to live more authentically as yourself which will lead to deeper and more meaningful relationships with others.
So if it sounds like you would like to work with me, I’d be delighted to hear from you. You can book online on my website or if you have any questions you can send me an email and I'll get back to you within 48 hours.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.
