About me
As an experienced Integrative Counsellor, I am dedicated to providing a warm, safe, and supportive space for you to explore and address the issues troubling you. Through this supported exploration, you may gain new perspectives and feel empowered to make positive changes in your life.
Currently, I work in private practice and offer my services as a clinical supervisor to the charity MIND. I have also expanded my practice to work freelance with Atrium HR, providing remote counselling services to expatriates. This experience has enriched my cultural knowledge and given me a broader, more diverse view of the world.
I offer counselling for both adults and young people, and provide supervision for qualified counsellors, students, and other professionals. My person-centered approach ensures that each session is tailored to meet your unique needs, fostering growth and self-discovery.
Next step
If you are unsure whether Counselling is right for you or you have any questions about any aspect of my service, I offer an initial 20 minute consultation to explore and clarify your needs. There is no fee for this time.

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.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
