About me

Do you feel stuck in cycles of anxiety or depression, knowing something needs to change but not sure where to begin? Many of the people I work with notice recurring, often dysfunctional patterns in their relationships or behaviour — often rooted in family dynamics — that leave them feeling powerless, unhappy, or unsure why they keep repeating the same cycles. You might find yourself people-pleasing, putting yourself last, or feeling trapped by how others treat you. You might be struggling with burnout and exhaustion and know that life can’t go on like this, and you’re ready for something brighter.

As an integrative therapist, I draw on a range of approaches to meet your unique needs. Together, we’ll explore where your struggles come from, so you can gain clarity, insight, and healing.Once those roots and patterns from the past and present have been untangled, I bring in a coaching element — supporting you in making the brave steps in making meaningful and long term changes to create a happier and healthier future.

I have an interest in supporting neurodiverse adults, including individuals who have been diagnosed with or self-identify as having autism or ADHD. I particularly enjoy working with women with ADHD, helping them understand and overcome the unique challenges they experience in life.

Fees range between £60 and £75.

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.
