About me
I am a Person-Centred therapist dedicated to providing a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore anything about yourself at your own pace. My approach is rooted in empathy, genuineness, and respect, prioritising your autonomy and individual experience.
In sessions, I aim to understand what it's like to be you in the present moment and communicate that understanding openly. Whether you have specific mental health goals, broad personal questions, or simply want a space to reflect, this is your space to use as you see fit.
Some clients come for a single session, others for ongoing support—there’s no right or wrong way to engage with therapy. You are in control of how long and how often you attend.
EMDR Therapy: I also offer Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR), a structured approach especially effective for trauma, PTSD, phobias, anxiety, and depression. EMDR can be brief or longer-term, and I adapt my approach to ensure you feel safe and supported throughout. You can choose to combine Person-Centred and EMDR approaches, depending on your needs.
EMDR can be useful for a wide range of things, from to depression and anxiety to complex PTSD. I have also undertaken specific additional training in using EMDR to support people experiencing psychosis and suicidal feelings - feel free to get in touch if you would like to talk about any of this.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have many years of experience supporting individuals with diverse issues. I work therapeutically with adults, young people (12-18), and children, holding an additional qualification specifically in counselling children. I am also an accredited EMDR practitioner with the EMDR Academy.
My background includes managing a counselling service in a primary school and teaching on a Level 4 Counselling Diploma for four years, helping students qualify as counsellors. Currently, I work as a Crisis Specialist Worker for Leeds Survivor-Led Crisis Service alongside my private practice.
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.

Additional information
My standard rates are £50 for a 50-minute session and £90 for a 90-minute session. If cost is a barrier, I may have some lower-cost spaces—please get in touch to discuss your situation.
If you are able to pay more, you can ‘pay it forward’ to support clients who need financial assistance.
I offer most sessions online to people across the UK, but I also offer 'walk and talk' therapy in a local park in Morley, which can be a refreshing alternative.
