Reg Dip. MBACP Integrative Psychodynamic Counsellor

About me

Hello, and welcome. I'm a qualified integrative counsellor with a particular interest in working with trauma-whether it’s something recent or something that’s been with you for a long time.

Trauma can arise from any experience that overwhelms our ability to cope. This might include abuse, neglect, accidents, loss, sudden change, or any event that left you feeling frightened, powerless, or deeply unsafe. Sometimes trauma is obvious and clearly remembered; other times it’s more hidden, showing up in the body or behaviour before we fully understand what’s going on.

You might notice its impact as anxiety, low mood, chronic stress, emotional numbness, difficulties in relationships, or a sense of being stuck or disconnected from yourself. These are very human responses to overwhelming experiences and they make sense.

As an Integrative Psychodynamic Counsellor, I offer a calm, supportive space where you can begin to explore what's going on beneath the surface, at your own pace and in your own way.

My work is based on the idea that our early experiences shape the way we relate to ourselves and others. Often, patterns that were once necessary or protective can start to feel limiting as we grow. By gently looking at those patterns together, we can begin to understand where they come from and what might need to shift.

Being integrative means I draw from different therapeutic approaches depending on what feels most useful and appropriate for you. I don’t believe in quick fixes or one-size-fits-all answers. Instead, I offer a relational, thoughtful approach that supports you in making sense of your experiences and moving toward greater clarity, confidence, and connection.

I offer both in-person and online sessions, depending on what feels most comfortable for you. If you're ready to begin or simply curious about what counselling might offer-I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.

What happens next?

The first step is simple: let’s book a consultation call! This is a free, 20-25 minute chat where we’ll go over some basic information about you and talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, it is also okay not to know too. It is  also a  chance for you to get a feel for how I work and decide if we’re a good fit to work together.

If you’d rather meet virtually, we can also set up a Zoom call for this consultation.

When should you start therapy?

You can start therapy at anytime!

Therapy isn’t just for the tough times when everything feels like it’s falling apart. It can also be really helpful when you’re looking to understand yourself better, work through things that have been holding you back from truly enjoying life, or explore how your past has shaped who you are today. It’s a safe space for those moments when you want to build healthier relationships or simply need someone to talk to — without the fear of being judged.

Experience

In the past, I’ve had the privilege of working with BCU Life Skills, where I provided counselling for both men and women who were unemployed or living on low incomes in the Borough of Bexley. Many of these individuals were dealing with complex challenges like stress, suicidal thoughts, depression, bereavement, low self-esteem, trauma, chronic illness, and disabilities.

I’ve also worked with a charity called Beatbullying, based in Croydon. They provided a safe online platform for young people between 11 and 16 to talk to mentors about bullying and other difficult issues. 

I’ve also worked with Revive Therapy, which offers compassionate, personalized counselling services to individuals in Beckenham and the surrounding areas, focusing on supporting mental well-being and personal growth.

Additionally, my experience as a teaching assistant at a special needs school has taught me invaluable skills that directly apply to counselling. Working closely with students who have special needs helped me develop important skills in active listening, clear communication, and understanding non-verbal cues, all of which are essential in counselling. Being able to recognize emotions and behaviors is key to providing the best support.

As an online counsellor on various platforms, I have the opportunity to connect with people from all kinds of backgrounds and locations, making mental health support more accessible than ever.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
