About me
Welcome to my profile.
Establishing a trusting relationship, where you feel safe, is vital in our journey together. I aim to create a safe and genuine space so you can feel heard and you are able to open up.
Authenticity is key in our sessions. I believe in fostering a comfortable environment where we can share laughter and discuss the important parts of your life. I want to be able to understand your experiences.
Having someone to talk to can be the most powerful step towards change. Whether it's through open conversations or more structured techniques, the goal is to guide you to where you want to be, anchored in a strong, open relationship.
My integrative approach uses various techniques, focusing on enhancing your relationship with yourself, others, and your past. Together, we'll work to solidify positive changes in your life.
Sessions are typically weekly, lasting 50 minutes. This can be adapted to your needs.
If you want to book an introductory call we can discuss your goals and what you want to gain from therapy.

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.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
