About me
Welcome
Whether you're struggling with the impact of your own past, worried about your child's emotional wellbeing, or finding family relationships increasingly difficult, therapy can offer the opportunity to slow things down and understand what's happening beneath the surface.
I work with adults, children, teenagers, parents and families experiencing anxiety, emotional overwhelm, relationship difficulties, challenging behaviour, or the lasting impact of trauma and early experiences. You may feel stuck in familiar patterns, unsure why certain situations trigger such strong emotions, or worried that things at home have become increasingly tense or disconnected.
Together, we'll look beyond symptoms and behaviour to understand the underlying emotional needs, relationship patterns and experiences that have shaped them. My role is to help you, your child or your family develop greater emotional safety, stronger relationships and lasting change.
I offer a warm, trauma-informed and collaborative space where therapy moves at a pace that feels right for you. Whether we're working individually or together as a family, you'll find a space where experiences are explored with curiosity, compassion and respect rather than judgement.
Who I Work With
I support:
- Adults living with the effects of trauma, difficult childhood experiences or relationship challenges.
- Children and teenagers experiencing anxiety, emotional overwhelm, friendship difficulties, school-related challenges or behavioural concerns.
- Parents seeking support to better understand and respond to their child's emotional and behavioural needs.
- Families wanting to strengthen relationships, improve communication and navigate conflict or significant life changes together.
- Individuals exploring self-worth, identity, boundaries and healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.
My Approach
I specialise in trauma, attachment and family systems, recognising that our experiences and relationships shape how we see ourselves, connect with others and respond to life's challenges.
My work is integrative and tailored to each individual or family. Alongside Person-Centred therapy, I draw on attachment-informed practice, nervous system regulation, parts work, psychoeducation and creative approaches where appropriate. Rather than focusing solely on managing symptoms, we work to understand the experiences beneath them, creating meaningful, sustainable change.
Whether I'm supporting an adult, a child or an entire family, my aim is always the same: to create a safe, collaborative therapeutic relationship where insight leads to greater confidence, stronger relationships and improved emotional wellbeing.
Training, qualifications & experience
My work is grounded in an integrative approach, specialising in trauma, attachment and family systems. I am a BACP Accredited counsellor and psychotherapist, and alongside my training in Person-Centred Experiential Therapy, I draw on attachment theory, developmental trauma, nervous system regulation, parts work and neuro-affirming practice to understand not only the difficulties someone is experiencing, but also the relationships and experiences that have shaped them.
I work with adults, children, teenagers, parents and families, tailoring therapy to each person’s needs. For children, teenagers and families, I begin with a comprehensive Family Assessment to gain a clear understanding of the wider context before recommending the most appropriate support. This may include individual therapy, parent consultations, family therapy or a combination of approaches.
My aim is always to provide a warm, collaborative and compassionate space where people feel safe to understand themselves, strengthen relationships and create meaningful, lasting change.
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.
