About me
I’m an integrative counsellor who works with warmth, honesty, and straight- talk with care.
I love working with people who struggle with low self-confidence, anxiety, loud inner critics, and feelings of “not enough.” Therapy with me is about breaking down unhelpful self-beliefs, learning to say no without guilt, building respectful boundaries, and reconnecting with the parts of you that already know more than you think.
I bring clarity and insight to sessions, offering reflections and observations thoughtfully and supportively. My clients often say they appreciate my strength, directness, and the fact that therapy with me can be both serious and full of laughter.
At heart, I believe in the magic of our unknown potential — the parts of ourselves we haven’t yet had permission to explore. My role is to walk alongside you while you do that, offering support, perspective, and sometimes challenge, in equal measure.
I offer a grounded, non-judgmental space where you can be honest, experiment with new ways of relating to yourself and others, and build a stronger sense of trust in who you are becoming.
I’m anti-“should”, sex positive, feminist, proudly LGBTQIA+ affirming and here for all the dolls!
My Approach
I work integratively, tailoring therapy to you. Depending on what’s helpful, our work might include:
Exploring patterns in relationships and self-talk
Gently challenging inner critics and “should” thinking
Boundary-setting and assertiveness
Somatic and grounding techniques
Reflective and creative approaches
Above all, I value authenticity, collaboration, and real conversations.
Who I Work With:
I particularly enjoy supporting adults and young adults who:
Struggle with confidence or self-worth
Feel dominated by self-criticism or perfectionism
Find it hard to say no or put themselves first
Are navigating change, uncertainty, or identity shifts
Want therapy that is honest and human
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a Level 4 diploma in counselling and a Masters (Level 7) in counselling and psychotherapy. As part of the MA, I have studied archetypes, nature therapy and self-criticism.
I have a private practice and work for a larger counselling organisation as well as having experience within a school setting working with young adults (12+).
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.
