About me
Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or struggling to cope? Perhaps life feels difficult to manage right now, or you’re carrying thoughts, feelings, or experiences that you don’t quite know what to do with.
Maybe you are experiencing anxiety or depression, dealing with grief or loss, relationship difficulties, trauma, or questions around sexuality or identity. Perhaps you’re navigating autism, ADHD, or other neurodiversity, living with long-term illness, facing a difficult change, or finding that experiences from your past are still affecting you today. You may not even know exactly what is wrong, just that you don’t feel quite yourself and want things to feel different.
Are you a parent worried about your child, struggling to understand what they are going through, or finding it difficult to know how best to support them? You don’t have to work it out alone.
You don’t need to have the answers, know where to begin, or even be sure that counselling is right for you. I offer a warm, accepting, confidential, and non-judgemental space for adults, young people, children, couples, and parents to feel heard, understood, and able to explore whatever has brought them here.
I am a BACP-accredited humanistic and integrative counsellor and qualified youth worker. I bring experience of supporting people across different ages and stages of life. I draw on person-centred, attachment, CBT, psychodynamic, mindfulness, solution-focused, somatic and trauma-informed approaches, adapting our work to you rather than expecting you to fit a particular model.
Whatever brings you here, we can start wherever you are.

Member organisations
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.
