About me
When you feel your mood or your relationships are under pressure, your sleep can be affected, or your self-worth may be low. Have you been coping with life on your own, just making the best of things or thinking you shouldn't complain? Do you have a loved one that you are concerned about? Sharing your worries is the first step towards regaining balance in your life.
I am an integrative counsellor working in my garden room between Cambridge and Haverhill. I also see clients online and can offer walk and talk therapy in Wandlebury Country Park. Many of my clients describe feeling anxious, low or lost. Difficult life experiences, abusive relationships, neurodivergence or loss are some of the reasons people come to therapy. These experiences can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself or others, struggling to make sense of how things have become so difficult. You may feel overwhelmed, stuck, exhausted from coping alone, or unsure why life feels harder than it once did. These are experiences I regularly work with in my practice, and you do not need to arrive with everything figured out before asking for support.
As an integrative counsellor, I work with you as an individual, recognising that no two people experience life in the same way. Together we can create a safe and supportive space to understand what is happening for you, helping you develop greater self-awareness and find a way forward that feels meaningful and manageable.

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.
