About me
Life can feel exhausting when you’ve spent years carrying anxiety, low mood, trauma, relationship difficulties, or the constant pressure of trying to hold everything together on the outside while struggling internally. Sometimes people come to therapy knowing exactly what is wrong. Others simply know they do not feel like themselves anymore.
I offer a warm, grounded, and non-judgemental space where we can begin to understand what is happening beneath the surface, while also focusing on helping you feel more stable and able to cope in the present.
I am a UKCP Registered Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with a BSc (Hons) in Integrative Counselling. My approach combines relational depth with practical support, drawing from psychodynamic, humanistic, trauma-informed, and neuroscience-based understanding. I work with adults, children, and young people experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties.
Many of the people I work with struggle with long-standing patterns linked to anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional overwhelm, low self-esteem, attachment difficulties, masking, people-pleasing, or feeling disconnected from themselves and others. Together, we can explore how past experiences, relationships, and coping mechanisms may still be impacting your life today — often in ways that are not always obvious.
Alongside deeper exploration, I also believe therapy should feel useful and containing. I aim to help clients develop emotional understanding, self-awareness, regulation, and practical ways of coping, rather than simply talking about problems week after week without direction.
I understand that starting therapy can feel daunting, particularly if you are used to managing things alone or have struggled to open up in the past. Building a safe therapeutic relationship is an important part of the work, and sessions move at a pace that feels manageable for you.
I offer sessions from a private countryside setting in Beeston, near King's Lynn, as well as online and telephone appointments.
If you would like to explore whether we may be a good fit, I offer a free 15-minute consultation call.

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.
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).
