About me
Do you feel exhausted or overwhelmed by the impact of life events or past trauma, which keep you stuck in your own head. You may find day-to-day life difficult to manage.
Whether you are dealing with a recent loss, work pressure, or the ongoing impact of domestic or sexual violence, I can provide a supportive space for you to feel heard and together we can find a way forward.
I offer a calm, empathic space where you can slow down, giving you time to explore your thoughts and feelings, in order to find some understanding and start to feel more like yourself again.
My focus is on helping you feel truly heard and understood. Together, we can explore what is happening beneath the surface, make sense of painful or overwhelming experiences, and help find ways for you to make changes.
I have worked with many different people and issues, throughout my career in the NHS, charities and private sector.
My main areas of experience are:
· Depression and low mood
· Trauma, domestic abuse, and sexual violence
· Bereavement and loss
· Anxiety and work-related stress
Taking the first step can feel difficult and scary. This is why I offer a free 20-minute consultation by phone or online. This gives us a chance to talk about what you might be wanting from therapy and gives you time to see if you feel comfortable working together.
Therapy works best when it fits comfortably into your life, this is why I offer different ways for us to meet, and I am happy to discuss which option will support you best:
· Face-to-Face Therapy: Meeting in person in a dedicated, private space.
· Online Therapy: Convenient & secure video sessions from your own home.
· Telephone Therapy: Ideal if you prefer the focus and ease of a call.
· Outdoor Therapy: Walk-and-talk sessions that help connect movement with reflection.
Current locations for outdoor therapy are Elvaston Castle (DE72) and Wollaton Park (NG8), please contact for further details.
Book a call or send an email today, to get started with making the changes you need.

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.
