About me
If you’re curious about starting therapy, feel free to request a phone call by clicking 'Email me' above. In this call we can discuss practicalities and arrange an initial session. There is no pressure to have a plan or a clear idea of what to say, or to commit to ongoing sessions if it doesn't feel right.
If we do decide to work together, I offer regular weekly 50-minute sessions.
My approach is grounded in psychodynamic thinking, which means I’m interested in providing a structure to explore how patterns and repetitions can work in our lives and relationships —often in ways that aren’t immediately obvious. I believe therapy works best when there’s space for reflection and honesty within a consistent and reliable relationship, and I place a strong emphasis on creating that kind of environment.
Therapy has the potential to offer a freer way of living. This is why, rather than teaching you ‘techniques’, I’m interested in helping you to explore what is going on for you, trying out meanings, and possibilities that might not have felt clear before. Together, we can think about what it might be like to live in a way that feels more authentic, less pressured, and more connected. I hold confidentiality, curiosity, and consistency as key values in my work.
Clients often come to me with anxiety, depression, or a general sense of unease they can’t quite name. I also have a particular interest in working with LGBTQ+ clients, especially those who are navigating identity, relationships, or self-acceptance.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a Master’s degree in Psychodynamic Practice from the University of Oxford, where I trained in providing in-depth, contemporary psychodynamic therapy. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and work in accordance with their ethical framework.
My clinical experience includes over three years of working with a diverse range of clients in low-cost counselling services. These settings have deepened my understanding of how people from different backgrounds experience emotional difficulty, and have strengthened my commitment to offering therapy that is thoughtful, respectful, and attuned to each individual.
I continue to engage in regular supervision and ongoing professional development to support and enrich my practice.
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.
