About me

Hi, I’m a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist and clinical hypnotherapist, offering support both online and in Guildford. I specialise in helping people like you who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and trauma, including childhood trauma. I know how hard it can be to admit that you need help, let alone seek it out. But I’m glad you’ve taken this step—it’s already a big achievement.

If you're feeling anxious, exhausted, or low, and life just doesn’t seem to make sense anymore—whether it’s at home, at work, or in your relationships—you’re not alone. Maybe you’re confused about why you can’t stop certain feelings or behaviours, no matter how hard you try. Or perhaps you constantly feel like you’re not good enough, no matter what you accomplish.

I get it. These struggles can be overwhelming, but they don’t have to define your life. In my practice, I offer a deeply personalised approach, tailored specifically to your needs. My aim is to help you find clarity and lasting solutions by really understanding you—your life, your challenges, and your strengths. Our work together will be about you and what you need to feel better.

In our first session, we’ll take the time to talk about what’s going on for you, and how therapy could help. You’ll have the space to ask questions, explore your concerns, and understand how we can work together to move forward at a pace that feels right for you. My priority is to ensure you feel comfortable and safe while we uncover the root causes of what’s troubling you.

Whatever you’re going through, it matters. And you deserve a compassionate, professional, and confidential space to work through it. While I don’t have a magic wand to make everything disappear, I’ve helped many clients tap into their own strengths and find the inner resources they never knew they had. Together, we can work towards helping you rediscover your confidence, clarity, and peace of mind.

If you are trying to resolve your problems but feel stuck and finding it difficult to get the results you want, please give me a call on +44 7425 110038 for a free telephone consultation. You may also visit my website for more information about my practice and resources and tips to everyday problems.

Key details

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

Please note I do not have wheelchair toilet facilities.
