About me
I work with people who find it hard to switch off
You’ve built a life that looks good from the outside, are capable and totally depended on. But somewhere along the way, performing became automatic, and you’re living on autopilot. You understand yourself intellectually, yet feel disconnected from who you are.
You might carry multiple responsibilities, identify as neurodivergent, or be navigating a significant life transition. Having space to talk about how you got here alleviates the weight and brings what you’ve been ignoring back into focus.
My work starts by exploring these patterns. When you feel safe enough to settle, being seen stops feeling dangerous. Being intentional becomes more possible, not through trying harder, but by finally being able to let go.
If any of this resonates, feel free to email me to set up a free 15-minute call. It’s a simple way to see if we’re a good match. I work by appointment only and am unable to take unscheduled calls.
As a sidebar, I’m the author of A.N.G.E.R: Get What You Want Without Losing Yourself, a deep dive into embracing hot emotions and transforming intensity into agency. Available now directly through online booksellers.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.
