About me
I am an integrative psychotherapist providing a warm, grounded, and highly confidential space for adults and couples. I believe that therapy shouldn't feel like a cold, clinical interrogation or a generic box-ticking exercise. Instead, it is an active, transparent conversation between two equals.
In my practice, we view complex psychological struggles differently: not as deficits to be fixed, but as deeply intelligent survival strategies. When you are navigating the overwhelming weight of anxiety, underlying trauma, or the exhausting isolation of loneliness, your internal system naturally creates high-control patterns to keep you safe. My goal is to help you look beneath these surface struggles, allowing you to reclaim your agency and find a calmer, more intentional way forward.
Areas of Focus & Specialisms
While my practice supports the broad spectrum of human distress, I provide specialist focus in the following complex dynamics:
- ADHD & Executive Function: Supporting neurodivergent adults navigating the intense cycles of hyperfocus, debilitating burnout, and the profound fatigue of masking in a linear world.
- Eating Disorders, Body Image & Control: Working with the deep-seated functions behind disordered eating, weight preoccupations, and the exhausting need for internal control that often mirrors elements of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).
- High Performance & Sports: Providing a discrete, specialised space for athletes, corporate leaders, and high achievers to navigate perfectionism, burnout, and the unique mental demands of high-pressure environments.
- Couples & Relational Therapy: A secure, balanced framework to help partners safely untangle communication breakdowns, rebuild intimacy, and navigate major life transitions together
I deliberately manage my active caseload to guarantee that every client receives a premium level of clinical focus, energy, and responsiveness. Finding the right therapist is a highly personal decision, which is why I offer a free initial telephone consultation to help you decide if we are the right fit for your journey.
Training, qualifications & experience
As a BACP qualified and BPS registered Integrative Psychotherapist, my practice is built on a robust, multi-disciplinary academic foundation. I hold Master’s degrees in both Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy and Psychology, alongside a background in Sports Science. Rather than forcing you into a rigid, one-size-fits-all box, my integrative approach is inherently holistic - allowing me to precisely tailor our therapy to your individual architecture, pace, and needs.
To do this, I dynamically blend the practical structure of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, the relational depth of Attachment Theory, and the core warmth of a Person-Centred Approach. My clinical experience spans a diverse range of high-stakes and specialized environments, having worked extensively across private practice, schools, and elite sports settings, as well as serving as a clinical lead within a specialist eating disorder organisation. This breadth of experience allows me to meet you with both deep clinical authority and an down-to-earth understanding of the real-world pressures you face.
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.
