About me
Sometimes getting help for mental health difficulties is confusing and overwhelming which then prevents a barrier for moving forward. We might find many other reasons around not taking that next step too – stigma, critical thoughts, minimising symptoms etc and then all too often, the struggle continues and seemingly we might justify that it's ok to continue this way and that change is too hard or impossible. As a therapist, I am here to be alongside you, to carry hope and be a constant with you in the turbulence. That being said, I don’t wish to promote an idea that therapy is needed in all of these inevitable challenging times in life as the only means to cope, because that’s not true.
I believe therapy is about building a safe relationship from which can be used as a jumping off point – helping you to develop kindness and compassion for yourself, to process experiences, helping you to gain insight into behavioural patterns and how these inform and nuance life, and working collaboratively to consider ways of breaking unhelpful cycles that might be contributing and maintaining struggles.
I am a creative therapist – which means I invite other ways of communication that solely don’t rely on using words where sometimes there aren’t any. My therapy approach is psychodynamic and this considers unconscious processing and how this informs the here and now. I am a passionate, flexible and adaptable mental health professional and believe there is no one size fits all when it comes to therapy! Being a therapist is so much more to me than a job and it is the greatest privilege to support and help empower others.
Training, qualifications & experience
I completed an MA in Art Psychotherapy and am accredited by HCPC which acknowledges that I meet the competencies required to practice safely as a clinician. I am currently training to become an accredited CBT therapist and am due to finish this at the end of 2025.
My experience has allowed me to work with older adults with chronic and life altering conditions, adults with learning disabilities, adults experiencing homelessness and addiction, young people and children experiencing moderate to severe eating disorders, young people and their families experiencing loss and grief, young people experiencing struggles with identity, change and transition, trauma, anxiety and depression.
I have had a variety of opportunities to work in the private, charity and public sector which includes schools. I work in the NHS currently and have been in private practice (which I am incredibly passionate about) now for 3 years.
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.
The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.

Further information
Our work begins with an initial consultation which is an important opportunity to establish a sense of whether the work is possible and what it is you are hoping to explore and take from the experience.
Therapy is your time – so you are encouraged to take the lead and direction. As a therapist my role is to support you to explore the tangents taken and to be curious about the deeper meaning.
The process of therapy is non-linear and at times it isn’t easy especially when you are potentially accessing parts of yourself that feel uncomfortable to be with. Please be reassured that you do not have to access these parts alone and that working through this together is part of the process of therapy despite this being challenging.
We work together for as long as you feel is right -going through the ups and downs, and we can work in a structured way towards an ending once we agree this.
