About me

We all encounter times in our lives where we may feel anxious, sad, angry or stuck in a pattern of unhelpful behaviour. This can impact our day to day lives, our relationship with ourselves and our relationship with others. 

We know that something must change but might not be entirely sure how to move forward. 

By offering a warm, safe and supportive space I can help you. I use a blend of psychodynamic and trauma-informed therapy to support people in understanding themselves more deeply and feeling more grounded and present in everyday life.

Psychodynamic therapy explores how past experiences and relationships influence our thoughts and feelings, while a trauma-informed approach ensures our work progresses at a pace that feels safe and honours your lived experience. 

As we gently work through these experiences, you will begin to gain a better understanding of yourself and your relationships.

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.
