About me
Life can sometimes leave us feeling a bit lost, stuck, or unsure of ourselves - and therapy can offer a space to begin finding your way again. I’m here to listen and support you as you make sense of what’s going on.
While I’m based in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, I also work online with clients across the UK and beyond.
I offer a space where you can talk freely, feel heard, and begin to explore what you need. You might be struggling with self-esteem, identity issues, relationship problems, or just feeling disconnected from yourself. Maybe you don’t have the words for what you’re feeling, just a sense that something isn’t quite right. Whatever it is, we can explore it together with care and curiosity.
My approach to therapy is relational and integrative. That means I pay close attention to the therapeutic relationship and how it can support healing, growth and lasting change.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you're unsure of what to expect. Our first session is a gentle starting point - a chance for us to meet, talk about what’s brought you here, and see whether working together feels like the right fit. I’ll also send you some pre-therapy information in advance, so you have a clear sense of how I work and what to expect.
If you’re curious about whether therapy with me might be right for you, please feel free to get in touch - I’d be glad to hear from you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a BSc (Hons) in Counselling and Psychotherapy, having trained at the Sherwood Psychotherapy Training Institute in Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy. I began seeing clients in 2018 and qualified in 2020. In 2022, I gained accredited membership status with BACP.
Before training as a therapist, I worked in various mental health-focused roles from 2008, experience that gave me a deep understanding of the many ways emotional distress can show up in people’s lives, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-worth.
I now work in private practice with adults (18+) and offer both online therapy and in-person sessions from my home office in Warsop, near Mansfield, Nottinghamshire.
I am experienced in supporting neurodivergent clients - including those who are autistic or have ADHD - and I aim to offer a space that respects and affirms different ways of thinking, feeling, and relating. I understand that for many, especially those diagnosed later in life, therapy can be a place to begin making sense of longstanding feelings of difference, masking, or burnout. I work gently and collaboratively to support this process.
I welcome and value working with people from LGBTQIA+ and GSRD communities, and strive to offer an inclusive, affirming space for exploration. This may include support around coming out, navigating shame, understanding your sense of identity, or processing the impact of non-affirming environments. I'm mindful of how relational wounds and questions of belonging can show up in therapy, and I aim to meet these with care, curiosity, and respect.
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.

Introductory Call
I offer a free introductory video call. It’s a relaxed way to say hello, talk a little about what’s bringing you to therapy, and see whether working together feels like the right fit. The call lasts around 15–20 minutes, and there’s no pressure to commit beyond that.
