About me

About Me

Are you and your partner feeling stuck, disconnected, or caught in the same arguments?

I specialise in working with couples and people in relationships where communication has broken down, trust has been affected, or things just don’t feel as they used to. You might be arguing more, feeling distant, or unsure how to move forward. I offer a supportive, non-judgemental space to help you understand what’s happening between you and find a way forward.

I work with a range of relationship structures, including LGBTQ+ and non-monogamous relationships.

Couples and relationships I work with often come to me when:

Communication has broken down or conversations turn into arguments
You feel more like housemates than partners
There has been a breach of trust (including affairs)
You’re stuck in repeating patterns and nothing seems to change
Intimacy or sexual connection has become difficult
You’re considering separation but feel unsure
You’re navigating differences in needs, expectations, or relationship structures


Alongside couples work, I also support individuals and young people (11–18 years) with anxiety, low mood, ADHD, and relationship or family difficulties. I have a particular interest in working with neurodiverse clients, as well as supporting parents who may feel overwhelmed or unsure how to support their neurodiverse child.

I offer both longer-term therapy and short-term or ‘one-off’ sessions, depending on your needs. I recognise that therapy can be a significant financial commitment, and draw on my experience with Relate and within school settings to offer flexible, focused ways of working.

I offer face-to-face sessions in London Liverpool Street, Romford, Waltham Cross and Chelmsford, as well as secure online sessions via Zoom or telephone.

Member organisations

BACP
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.

COSRT
College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT)

COSRT is the UK’s leading membership organisation for therapists specialising in sexual and relationship issues.

All members must abide by their Code of Ethics and the performance of accredited members is regularly monitored.

Accredited register membership

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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).
