About me
*In-person and online sessions currently available**
I’m an Integrative Therapist working in-person in Central Manchester and online, across the UK. My specialisms are anxiety, self-esteem, low mood & relationships, in all their forms. Some of the issues I frequently support clients with include anxiety or other difficulties, within relationships with partners, friends, family members; people pleasing through fear of rejection or disagreement; work-related stress & anxiety; feelings of loneliness / isolation; feeling stuck; emotional regulation. These are all natural things to struggle with, but change is possible and therapy can help.
I have a passion for helping people to find long-term ways of experiencing less stress, anxiety and sadness in life, and to develop better relationships with themselves and others. I do this by offering a non-judgemental space where you can talk and feel heard, and by asking questions about how life has been for you, to help you gain clarity on your difficulties & identify what you need to move forward.
My core training in Transactional Analysis, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Person-Centred Therapy forms the foundation of my practice. I've completed further training in the following approaches, which I also integrate into sessions:
- Polyvagal Theory: a fascinating and very useful theory - with lots of practical tools - for understanding how our body & brain work together to respond to both everyday stresses, and more significant / traumatic events. More information here: https://www.polyvagalinstitute.org/whatispolyvagaltheory]
- Focussing: A body-centred approach to deepening our understanding of ourselves. More information here: https://www.focusing.org.uk/an-introduction-to-focusing
- Attachment Theory: A psychological and evolutionary explanation of how the nature and quality of our early relationships with our caregivers, influences our relationships throughout our lives.
I am professional, down-to-earth and I approach my work with warmth, honesty and the greatest of care. I offer a free 20-minute consultation, so you can decide if we are a good fit and ask any questions you may have. You can contact me by email, text message or phone call and I will get back to you within 48 hours.

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.
