About me
I am a fully qualified Integrative Counsellor with a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a Registered Member of the BACP (British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists). As part of my training, I have worked for the NHS counselling service in London.
Going through a rough patch, tackling anxiety or struggling with relationship issues - most of us have been there. Therapy can offer you a safe space to untangle your thoughts and get a better understanding of yourself. I believe that counselling can improve quality of life and give clients skills and insight to tackle their problems easier.
During our sessions, I will offer you a non-judgemental space to explore your thoughts and make sense of your feelings. Reflecting on existing patterns can help to observe your actions and understand yourself better.
I work with various issues including:
- anxiety
- depression
- relationship difficulties
- low self-esteem
- stress
- life transitions
I work with different modalities based on my clients needs, including psychodynamic, humanistic and cognitive behavioural theories. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation of growth and everyone is capable of reaching their full potential.
You may want to talk about something that happened in the past, or troubling you in your present. Reaching out and asking for help can be difficult to do for the first time. If you are unsure how to start or just want to find out more, please free to message me.

Member organisations
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)
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.
