About me
I approach counselling with a deep sense of respect and responsibility. I view it as a privilege to accompany individuals on their journeys of self-discovery and healing. I offer a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment where clients can feel empowered to explore their inner worlds and cultivate greater well-being. The relationship between us will form the foundation of the work. I welcome confused, stuck, and weary clients into a space of safety and connection. By bringing warmth and ease into the sessions, I make room for you to bring all of yourself to the work. Through attunement and acceptance, I will support you as you move towards greater self-awareness, empowerment and growth.

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.
Areas of counselling I deal with
Other areas of counselling I deal with
Whilst labels and pathologies have an important place in our understanding of ourselves, they can also, perhaps, suggest that there is a problem to be fixed, and a norm to be returned to. I believe our symptoms and experiences are fluid, organic, and part of our unique world views. Using integrative methods, our work will amplify and bring attention to the nuances and particularities of your story - giving you a place of safety to lay this out.
As such, my approach will focus on where you are on your journey, how you got there, what feels misaligned, and how to bring into focus what you want moving forward.
My therapeutic emphasis is on life's transitional moments. Common pivotal transitions I work with are adolescence, career shifts, family changes, health challenges, divorce, grief, menopause and ageing. I particularly enjoy working with young people (13-24), and older people (65+).

Further information
My practice is grounded in Humanistic, Existential, and Somatic principles. This means I emphasise:
Growth: Supporting your potential for positive change and self-actualisation.
Embodiment: Connecting you with your physical sensations and experiences to deepen self-awareness.
Authenticity: Encouraging you to live in alignment with yourself.
Meaning-Making: Exploring how you uniquely create purpose and significance in your life.
