About me
Whatever has brought you here, welcome. I work with adults experiencing a range of difficulties. You may be finding that something in your life no longer feels quite right, even if you cannot easily explain why. Perhaps you feel anxious, overwhelmed, lonely, disconnected or stuck in patterns that keep repeating. You may be carrying the impact of past experiences, struggling in your relationships or questioning who you are and what you want.
I work with warmth, honesty and curiosity, helping you make sense of your experience. I am a BACP registered therapist.
I offer in-person and online sessions with adults aged 18+. For in person sessions, parking is available. Get in touch if you would like to find out more about how we might work together.
Embodied Psychotherapy
Alongside talking therapy, I offer an embodied approach called Pesso Boyden psychotherapy. This approach may help if you understand your patterns but still find yourself stuck in them, particularly when attachment trauma or difficult early relationships continue to shape how you feel about yourself, relate to others or respond to the demands of work. This might show up as procrastinating or struggling to finish what you start, holding back in meetings or from opportunities despite your ability, feeling overwhelmed by responsibility, or finding it difficult to trust, feel secure and maintain close relationships; the work can help you feel more secure in yourself, more confident in your choices and freer to move forward.

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.
