About me

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-worth, emotional dysregulation, relationship difficulties, trauma responses, or coping behaviours that no longer help you?

Maybe you have a recent diagnosis for ADHD or Autism or suspect that you might be. Sometimes there is no clear label or explanation, just a sense that something needs attention. My clients come from all walks of life, but tend to be neurodivergent and/or from the LGBTQIA+ communities, and often come to me feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand. Recognising that you need some support at this point in your life is a strength rather than a weakness.  

I am an Integrative Psychotherapist offering confidential psychotherapy and counselling to adults, either online, by telephone, via email, and through Walk and Talk sessions in Tonbridge, Kent.

I have professional experience, specialist training, and lived-experience in working with neurodivergent adults and LGBTQIA+ clients. As a result, my practice is neurodivergence-affirming and LGBTQIA+ affirming. I also work with adults (whether neurodivergent and/or queer, or not) experiencing a variety of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, addiction and compulsive behaviours.

As well as being an Accredited Registrant Member of NCPS, I am a certified Clinical Trauma Professional (Level 2), a certified Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical specialist and a certified ADHD Clinical Services Provider. I work integratively, meaning I draw on different therapeutic approaches and adapt the work to you rather than making you fit a single, specific model. 

Are you ready to talk now? I offer a free 20-minute online or telephone consultation so you can ask questions and explore whether working together feels right.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am an Accredited Registrant Member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS).

My core training is in integrative psychotherapy, with a strong foundation in:

Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT)
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Attachment-informed and trauma-informed approaches

I am a certified Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist (ASDCS #842209) and a certified ADHD Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP #Pending). I practise in a neurodivergence-affirming, non-pathologising way and am neurodivergent myself.

I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional Levels 1 and 2 (CCTP-I & II #274728) having completed extensive, comprehensive training.

Alongside professional training, I bring lived-experience to my work in areas including neurodivergence, addiction and compulsive behaviours, and LGBTQIA+ identity. I engage in regular clinical supervision and ongoing continuing professional development (CPD) to ensure my work remains ethical, reflective, and evidence-informed.

You'll find a comprehensive list of my ongoing training and CPD on my website.

Further information

Online sessions are conducted via Doxy, a secure, GDPR-compliant video platform. Telephone and email therapy are also available, if that's your preference. Walk and Talk sessions take place outdoors in Tonbridge, Kent, weather permitting, offering an alternative to room-based therapy for clients who struggle with the intensity of 'face to face' therapy, and find movement and being outside supportive.

I work collaboratively and at a pace that respects your needs, processing style, and capacity. You do not need a diagnosis to begin therapy. I cannot diagnose mental health or neurodevelopmental conditions, but I can support you to explore your experiences, patterns, and emotional responses in a respectful and non-pathologising way.
