About me
Life. It fluctuates, surprises and changes. We all know what it’s like to feel stuck, confused or overwhelmed at times. Familiar or not, it can be tough to make sense of or talk about. I get it.
It’s likely you want something to change as you’re here, reading this. Real change comes from doing the inner work and you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. With my professional support and guidance, you can take the time and space to drop your roles from daily life and dig deeper into your life experiences. No motives, no ‘fixing’, no misguided advice and no judgement.
Therapy isn’t just about talking. It’s about collaborating, clarity and making sense of your life experiences to create those inner shifts of deconstructing patterns, breaking cycles and healing wounds. Leaving you energy for the important stuff - your personal growth, healing and living a meaningful life.
Nurturing your mental and emotional health is an essential part of living and how that looks will be different for each of us. So that should be reflected in your therapy, right? I’m an Integrative Counsellor and I bring a wealth of experience to prioritise your unique needs and adapt as they evolve throughout our time working together.
Common themes I help with include:
- Identity and confidence
- Life transitions and existential crises
- Trauma, loss and loneliness
- Anxiety, low mood and depression
- Relationships and boundaries
My style is warm, explorative and with a high standard of care. I’ve provided my support and guidance to people through a wide range of difficulties in the settings of Inner Shift Therapy, the NHS, charity and private sectors.
Don’t know where to start? Curious enough to find out how I might be able to help? Book in a free 20-minute consultation to give me a brief overview of your concerns, ask any questions about therapy and we can see if my approach aligns with your needs.

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.
