About me
I am an Integrative Psychotherapist and Counsellor, offering both short- and long-term therapy to individuals and couples. I provide sessions face-to-face, online, or by phone, allowing flexibility to meet your needs. I also work as a counselling lecturer and trainer, supporting adult learners from diverse backgrounds and with a wide range of needs.
My integrative training allows me to draw on a variety of therapeutic approaches—psychodynamic, person-centred, and cognitive-behavioural (CBT)—which I tailor to suit your individual concerns and goals. This flexibility ensures our work together is grounded in a model that best supports your process and promotes meaningful change.
I work collaboratively with clients, with a particular focus on exploring unconscious processes and the influence of early life experiences on current patterns of thought, feeling and behaviour. My aim is to support you in increasing self-awareness, recognising unhelpful patterns, and developing new ways of understanding yourself and your relationships.
Underpinning all my therapeutic work is the knowledge that it is ultimately the quality of the relationship between client and therapist - that's you and me - that heals.

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.
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.

Further information
I offer a free 20-minute consultation via phone or Zoom. This gives you an opportunity to talk a little about what brings you to counselling and ask any questions you might have about how I work. It also gives us both the chance to see whether we feel like a good fit.
If you decide to proceed, we can arrange an initial 50-minute session, either online or in-person, to explore your concerns in more depth. From there, we can work together on a short-term or open-ended basis, depending on your preferences and what feels right for you. Sessions are typically held weekly, on the same day and at the same time.
