About me
I am a UKCP and BACP registered Psychotherapist, offering a warm, open-hearted, and non-judgmental space for exploration and growth. My approach is curious and collaborative, free from assumptions, and centred on your unique experience.
Life is complicated, ever-changing and often overwhelming. Coming to therapy is a chance to step away from the noise, take a breath and notice how you are really feeling. It is a pocket of time in your week where you don't have to pretend to be okay, but instead can share the messiness and confusion and feel held. Experiencing anxiety, depression and low self-esteem have been normalised in our everyday and therapy is the place to begin to question what your body and your mind is really telling you.
Why Therapy?
Therapy is different to confiding in friends and family. It offers a confidential and supportive space where you can bring your full self without fear of judgment. Together, we will explore how your past shapes your present, reflect on your way of being in the world, and work towards a future with greater clarity and peace.
How I Work
- I offer weekly 50-minute sessions, available in-person or online
- We will build a relationship based on trust, authenticity and care
- My work is embodied and experiential, meaning we pay attention to your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations to gain insight and healing
- I draw on existential philosophy, confronting life’s uncertainties while embracing your personal freedom and choices

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.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
