About me
You might be feeling anxious, low, stuck in a pattern you can’t quite shift, or struggling with habits that no longer serve you. Perhaps you’re outwardly coping but inwardly exhausted. Or you may simply sense that something in your life needs attention.
I work with people experiencing anxiety, depression and all forms of addiction, as well as those who feel held back from living in a fuller, more meaningful way. Together, we can gently explore what may be underneath your current difficulties — whether that’s self-doubt, relationship patterns, past experiences, or the pressure to always appear “fine.”
Therapy offers a space where you don’t have to manage alone. Speaking openly about what hurts, feels frightening, or truly matters can bring relief, clarity and new understanding. Over time, this can help you build a more compassionate relationship with yourself — which is often the foundation for real and lasting change.
I trained as an integrative therapist, which means I draw from different approaches depending on what suits you. Some of our work may focus on the present and your strengths; at other times we might explore how earlier relationships have shaped current patterns. Above all, our work will move at your pace.
I became a therapist because my own experience of therapy was life-changing. I know it takes courage to begin, and I aim to offer a steady, thoughtful space where you feel heard and respected.
Finding the right therapist is important. If you’d like to ask any questions or arrange an initial conversation, you’re very welcome to get in touch.
Training, qualifications & experience
I trained as an integrative counsellor, and received my Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling (Integrative) in 2015. My placement while training was at Cranstoun, an addiction agency in London, supporting clients in their early recovery from alcohol and drug addiction. I continued at Cranstoun until August 2017, offering counselling to staff members. I have worked for the past 8 years in private practice at The Awareness Centre and now on Zoom. I am an accredited member of the BACP. I have recently gained an advanced certificate in understanding and applying Parts theories.
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.

I have a background in performing arts, and understand some of the pressures and expectations of pursuing a creative career, and the impact of the profession on mental health and self-worth. I have an interest in and experience with working with addiction, co-dependence, sex and love addiction and emotionally abusive relationships. I am committed to continued personal development and growth.
