About me
Are you feeling like you need some help, do you find yourself walking on eggshells around certain people, you’ve lost your confidence, second guessing yourself, losing sleep, worrying over small things and finding it difficult to cope?
Therapy offers a safe space where you don’t have to keep everything together or please everyone else. You can speak openly, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and begin to feel more confident making decisions, find it easier to manage stress / overwhelm and build stronger and calmer relationships.
I have worked in private practice for over 10 years. I offer a grounded, compassionate space with warmth and gentle humour — because therapy should feel supportive, not intimidating.

The key to successful therapy is how well you fit with your therapist and I’m passionate that therapy should be a positive experience. I offer a free no obligation 15-minute chat to see if I’m the right person for you.
I also have fortnightly appointments if you are unable to attend weekly. I hold phone, online or face to face sessions.

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.
