About me
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, leaving us feeling stuck, anxious, or disconnected from ourselves and others. I offer a warm, supportive, and safe space where you can explore whatever is on your mind at your own pace. Together, we can work towards greater self-understanding, growth and meaningful change.
I work with individuals experiencing a variety of difficulties, including low self-esteem, anxiety, depression and relationship issues. Whether you are facing a specific challenge or feeling overwhelmed by life, together we can explore what is happening for you in a way that feels supportive, collaborative and meaningful.
My approach is integrative, which means I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to meet your individual needs. I recognise that every person is unique and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy.
Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and begin understanding what has brought you to therapy. I carry out an assessment to gain a fuller picture of your experiences, and together we will develop a therapeutic plan that supports your goals and well-being.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (MBACP) and have worked within the NHS, supporting people from a wide range of backgrounds and life experiences.
Are you pregnant or a new parent and worried about parenthood issues? My practice includes supporting expectant and new parents adjusting to a new chapter in their lives. Personal and professional experiences have developed a deep understanding of the unique emotional changes it brings.
I also regularly work with university students and recent graduates experiencing academic or study pressures, low confidence, relationship difficulties, and identity-related concerns. I support students and graduates who are managing their wellbeing alongside university life and wider responsibilities.
I work with recent graduates as they navigate the transition into working life and adapt to life after university. This can be a time of significant change and uncertainty.
Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked in a corporate role for over a decade. During this time, I developed a clear understanding of the impact stress and anxiety can have on the body and mind. I also became aware of the life-changing benefits of therapy.
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.
