About me
I am a BACP accredited counsellor and psychotherapist with over ten years’ experience, offering short and long-term individual therapy to adults aged 18 and over.
You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, difficult relationships or the impact of past or traumatic experiences. Perhaps you feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure of how to move forward. Having a safe space to talk and be truly heard can be an important first step.
I offer a warm, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly, without fear of being judged. My approach is integrative, drawing on person-centred and psychodynamic perspectives. This means that I work collaboratively and at your pace, while also helping you explore how past experiences and relationships may be influencing how you feel and relate to yourself and others today.
I believe that therapy is a collaborative process. Together, we can develop a better understanding of what you are experiencing, work through difficulties and past hurts, and explore ways of creating positive change.
I offer daytime and evening sessions online or by telephone.
If you are considering therapy and would like to find out more, please feel free to contact me, preferably by email. I would be happy to answer any questions and discuss whether therapy with me might be right for you.

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.
