About me
Changes in life or periods of transition can lead to you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from yourself, or questioning parts of your life that once felt certain. Menopause and the years surrounding it can affect far more than physical symptoms — they can impact identity, relationships, confidence, mood, and the way you experience yourself in the world. Men face challenges in life which may be difficult to express and can become overlooked, and therapy can be a safe place to explore unmet needs.
Neurodivergence, including ADHD and autism, can also shape how people experience stress, emotions, relationships and daily life, and for some this may become more noticeable or harder to manage during periods of change or uncertainty.
I offer a warm, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can speak openly and honestly about what you are experiencing. Therapy can provide an opportunity to slow down, make sense of difficult feelings, reconnect with yourself, and explore what you need moving forwards.
I support clients experiencing anxiety, low mood, loss of confidence, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, identity changes, burnout, overwhelm, emotional regulation difficulties, and feeling stuck or emotionally depleted.
Together, we can work towards greater self-understanding, self-compassion, and finding a way forwards that feels more authentic and manageable for you.
My approach is thoughtful, collaborative and tailored to you as an individual. Building a trusting therapeutic relationship is central to the way I work, and I aim to create a space where you feel safe, heard and accepted as you are.

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.
