About me
Hello, thank you for taking the time to read this profile, I believe that the relationship between an individual and their counsellor is of paramount importance and I'm hoping that this information provides you with a brief understanding of who I am and how I work, and maybe help with what can be a very hard decision about starting counselling and whom to choose to start this journey with.
Being a skilled, experienced counsellor, that has been qualified and has worked with individuals and groups for more than 10 years, has provided me with the opportunity to gain extensive experience of supporting clients with a variety of issues and problems.
Counselling is an opportunity to work through what is happening in your life in a safe, therapeutic space, where you are welcomed and supported. I am a friendly, approachable individual that provides a warm, empathic experience. I am able to work within a short term or long term basis and I have skills within a number of therapies, as such I would tailor the counselling provision to suit your needs, whether it is to gain strategies and techniques to manage something within your life or a more wider look at an element of your life that is impacting you, we can work together at identifying what form of therapy is right for you.
I am a trauma informed counsellor, which means that I am aware of the complexities of trauma, and the wide range of impact upon an individual. Supporting individuals with levels of trauma have provided me with the ability to be with an individual whilst experiencing levels of psychological distress and support them with developing strategies and techniques to manage daily living needs.
Due to the extensive experience, additional training and further development I have 3 different areas of support that I specialise within: Sex therapy, Couples/Relationship Therapy and Children/Young People Therapy.
As a trainee psychosexual counsellor, currently completing specialist training in psychosexual and relationship therapy. I offer a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space to explore concerns around sex, intimacy, relationships, and sexual wellbeing.
Alongside my psychosexual training, I bring both professional and lived experience of neurodiversity. I understand how autism, ADHD, sensory differences, or feeling “different” can shape experiences of intimacy, communication, desire, and relationships. I aim to offer an affirming space where neurodivergent clients feel understood without needing to mask or over-explain.
Within Sex Therapy I work with individuals and couples experiencing difficulties such as:
Low sexual desire
Erectile difficulties
Pain during sex
Orgasm concerns
Sexual anxiety or shame
Mismatched libido
Relationship and intimacy challenges
Impact of medical conditions on sexuality
Exploring sexual identity
My approach is integrative and evidence-based, drawing on various models.
As a trainee, I work under regular clinical supervision and adhere to professional ethical guidelines. This ensures safe, reflective, and high-quality practice.
I offer reduced-fee sessions for sex therapy, while completing my clinical training.
I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and I fully adhere to their ethical framework for good practice.
Feel free to give me a call to talk further and raise any questions you may have.

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.
