About me
Accepting new online clients in May 2026 - email me today to set up a free telephone consultation if our availability aligns.
Therapy is about change. The changes we'd like to make. The ones we are struggling to. The ones that feel impossible. The ones that are relationally tricky. Sometimes it's about the changes we are finding hard to accept, or desire for others to change. Therapy helps us bring the focus back to our own drives and motivations.
You don't have to struggle with whatever is hard for you right now alone. Working with a professional provides you with a compassionate witness for your story and someone who can work with you to bring more ease into your life. Relationship issues, anxiety, depression, life stress and low self-esteem are experienced by many people. Making space to be supported in this is a brave step that shows yourself, you matter.
I work with clients across the UK and EU via Zoom. I accept AXA Insurance Clients.
My working days are Monday, Tuesday, and Friday.

My aim is to help you better understand yourself and find more manageable and meaningful ways to live. I love the work I do, and I'm dedicated to being part of the benefits of talking therapies that can help individuals to transform their lives.
I'm highly skilled in helping you to reach a deeper understanding of yourself, your past and relational style - allowing you to make changes and move forward. My approach is direct, supportive and challenging. I’m not the kind of therapist who sits, stares and says nothing! I will listen with curiosity and care, but I am also here to gently challenge you and offer you insights to help guide you to realisations. Sharing parts of ourselves can feel vulnerable, so it’s really important that you choose someone you feel comfortable talking to, as the quality of the relationship between client and counsellor is key to good therapy outcomes.
For this reason, I offer a short phone call before our first session, for you to get a sense of what it might be like to talk to me each week and to suss out if that is something you could imagine for yourself. This is an opportunity to see if we are a good fit for one another. Please take a look at my website to get a better feel of how I work.
If you would like to find out more about having counselling with me, please contact me via email with a brief outline of why you are seeking counselling at this time. It is also helpful if you share your availability times/days of the week for a potential weekly session.
From there, we can arrange a phone call at a time that suits you. Please note I only work on a weekly basis with new clients.
The working therapy relationship is more than being able to get along; the way we show up in a therapeutic relationship offers a window on the world of how we are in all our relationships. A significant part of the work of therapy is to explore, better understand and help you shift if needs be, your relational patterns. This is achieved not through tools and techniques for you to take away, but through being in the therapeutic relationship week on week, and in time, us exploring what that’s like and what comes up for me that I observe as your practitioner.
Some of my work with clients is focused and structured around agreed goals or outcomes, while other clients suit a longer-term approach that is explorative, particularly if their needs are more complex.
Let's get started on supporting you.

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.
