About me

Our relationships shape so much of how we experience life. When we're struggling, it often reaches far beyond the original problem. It can affect how we see ourselves, how we relate to the people we love, and how we experience everyday life.You don't have to face this alone.

By the time many people come to therapy, they've often spent months, or even years, trying to manage things on their own. Some are recovering from painful relationships or loss. Others are navigating major life changes, making sense of neurodivergence, or wondering why life feels more difficult than it once did. Often, our first conversations are simply about making sense of what's been happening and where you'd like life to feel different.

If this sounds familiar, I offer therapy for adults and couples from my private garden room between Cambridge and Haverhill, as well as online and through walk and talk sessions in Wandlebury Country Park.

Rather than beginning with a particular technique, I begin by getting to know you. No two people and no two relationships are the same. I take time to understand who you are, what has shaped you and what you're hoping might feel different. Together we'll create a calm, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace, make sense of what's happening, and begin to move forward with greater clarity, confidence and self-understanding.

Clients often tell me that having a calm, confidential space to pause and think differently about what's happening is something they haven't experienced before. 

Whether you're coming to therapy on your own or with your partner, I aim to offer a space where you feel heard, understood and better equipped to navigate the challenges you're facing, both within yourself and in your relationships.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
