About me
I offer accepting, warm, and inclusive counselling in person in central London and online/ phone.
Taking a first step towards counselling can be difficult and confusing. It takes a lot of guts to acknowledge you want some help. If you are feeling anxiety, depression, low mood, spiralling thoughts or struggling to cope, I offer a space to share your story and receive understanding, warmth and support.
Maybe you are here because of an upheaval in your life, such as illness, change or challenge at work, that's left you feeling anxious, low or stuck. Perhaps you’ve experienced a loss that is gut-wrenching or confusing. It might be the death or a loved one or end of a relationship. Perhaps a past experience or trauma keeps rearing its head and making it difficult for you to live a fulfilled life.
I offer a space that is entirely about and for you. Time to process what is happening and explore new ways to cope. Space to cry, shout, swear, and feel whatever you’re feeling. Counselling can help you to find the path forwards and gain a deeper acceptance and understanding of yourself.
Training, qualifications & experience
I work with people experiencing upheavals, such as cancer or other health diagnosis, changes at home or in relationships and problems at work. I support people through life transitions, such as menopause or perimenopause or caring for a family member. I help those dealing with loss, such as bereavement or the end of a relationship.
When we face one or more of these problems we can be left feeling anxious, low, confused and lost. Our usual coping mechanisms no longer work. Past trauma or difficult experiences may also resurface.
I recognise and welcome all identities, gender expressions, values and beliefs. I am committed to anti-racist, LGBTQIA+ inclusive, accessible and neuro-inclusive practice.
I am a BACP Registered member and completed a BSc in Person-Centred Pluralistic Counselling at Metanoia Institute. I’ve worked in community based counselling services, a cancer charity called The Mulberry Centre and private practice. I am also a qualified coach and member of the Association for Coaching and have worked with many leaders dealing with workplace changes and challenges. I work collaboratively with clients and often combine counselling and coaching approaches.
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.
