About me
At times we can become stuck in life patterns and routine, which no longer serve us and consequently cause unbalance, distress and a sense of overwhelm. Life can throw us curve balls, leaving us feeling like we are sinking in the unmanageable and we can, all too often, avoid our deepest fears and consequently our pain, which causes such unbalance and confusion.
My therapeutic process is rooted in humanistic, relational, psychodynamic and existential approaches of psychotherapy. I also offer evidence based, psycho-educational solutions of cognitive behavioural therapy for people suffering with a wide range of common mental health issues such as low mood, anxiety and ADHD.
I provide a confidential space to help identify reoccurring emotional patterns, that prove problematic and/ or unhelpful- exploring how these difficulties may impact on current life style, relationships and emotional well-being.
Helping you to reconnect with your true self and life purpose.
I have extensive experience within the health and social care sector, offering skills associated with many different aspects of mental health services such as crises support, counselling & psychotherapy as well as charitable and the NHS sectors of mental health.
I have lived and travelled around the world and have experience of both Middle Eastern and European cultures. I am passionate about bringing cultural diversity to my practise.
I welcome people from all backgrounds

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

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.
