About me

I know how daunting it can be to start therapy. That hesitation, that anxiety—it’s completely normal. But by finding yourself here, you’ve already taken the most important step toward change. Recognising that something in your life could use attention is incredibly brave, and it’s a journey I’d be honoured to support you on.

As an integrative therapist, I believe there’s no single way to heal because we’re all different and life throws us unique challenges. I approach therapy with flexibility, drawing from different techniques to fit what you need at this point in your life. Together, we’ll create a space where you can explore your feelings, even when finding the right words is difficult. Therapy doesn’t always have to be heavy—sometimes it’s in those lighter, unexpected moments that real “eureka” breakthroughs happen.

What matters most to me is that you feel heard, understood, and supported. Therapy is a collaborative process, where we work together to uncover insights that lead to meaningful change. Whether you’re grappling with anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, or simply trying to figure out who you are, I’m here to listen without judgment and help you find your way forward.

There will be hard conversations and emotional moments, but there will also be discoveries that light up your path.  Though therapy can be hard there is also room for fun and laughter, it does not always need to be heavy. I’ve worked with clients from all walks of life on a wide range of challenges—whether it’s anxiety, depression, identity struggles, ADHD, or navigating the complexities of relationships. Whatever you’re facing, I’m here to walk beside you, helping you unlock those moments of clarity and empowering you to live a life that feels truly fulfilling.

Let’s explore it together—wherever you are, I’m here to meet you.

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.

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).

Additional information

I believe that finding the right therapist is a vital part of successful therapy. To help with this, I offer a free 20-minute conversation before our first session. This is an opportunity for you to share what you'd like to work on, your goals, and a little about yourself. It also allows you to decide whether I am the right person to support you in achieving your therapeutic aims.

This conversation also gives me the chance to ensure I have the right skills and approach to provide you with the most effective treatment tailored to your needs.

If you have any questions or need further information, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Concessions and reduced rates are available for online sessions only.
